About Sdeed Health
Sdeed Health is a Saudi app that helps families organise a parent's healthcare in one place: the medical file, current medications, readings, a family board, appointments and family decisions.
Sons, daughters and relatives organising a parent's care, and older adults who'd like to manage their own file.
Not yet. Register your interest and we'll let you know when it launches.
The app is currently in Arabic.
Family
Enter the relative's mobile number, choose their relationship from nine options, and send the invitation. They'll see it when they sign in with that number.
The person who leads the care within the family. They appear in the medical file, and they make the final decision in family decisions.
One family member puts a question forward and the others vote yes or no. The vote is shared and advisory, and the final decision stays with the care lead.
Yes. People aged 60 and over can manage their own file, make the text larger and unlock the app with a fingerprint.
Privacy

Only the people you invite, once they accept. An invitation gives no access until it's accepted, and you can remove anyone at any time.
