An app designed for older adults and their caregivers in navigating information for your care journey.
Feel informed and confident leaving the hospital.
One single platform for accessing a wide range of information, services, and local resources for the health and wellbeing of those at home, those in hospital or being discharged from hospital.
myra provides a single platform with a wide range of resources essential for you on your care journey.
Patients and carers have told us they don’t know what questions to ask to facilitate hospital discharge and how hard it is to find relevant information. Based on patient and carer feedback, personal experiences and in depth research, the team at myra have done the hard work for you and compiled a free, comprehensive, easy to use, information resource, downloadable from apple and google app stores.
Local resources include: The Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Southampton with more rolling out in the coming months.

“The Isle of Wight Council is delighted to have supported MyLiferaft in producing the ‘myra’ App. It is easy to download, navigate, has a wealth of information, tips and support.
The app is/will be of great benefit here on the island due to the considerable amount of local information that will be available to residents to help them to make informed choices about their ongoing care following discharge from hospital.”
“Very pleased to see such a wide range of useful information in one place and also links which signpost further knowledge from the experts in their field. Such a help and something I'd be happy to recommend to friends finding themselves in the situation of searching for up to date information about caring for friends & ones. I have only just downloaded the App and so haven't looked at it extensively but I love what I've seen so far! Thank you.”
“It is so good, so comprehensive. It would empower family members and they could be more in control of caring for their loved one. I don’t think that there is anything you have left out.”
“I think that as soon as a patient is admitted the family should be made aware of the app. Often the discharge team don’t become involved until the patient is medically fit, if the family are proactive they could have done half the job by the time the patient is medically fit.”
“This app could be a real game changer.”
