The site seeks to aid in the management of RA by providing valuable interactive and educational health assessment tools, current health updates, Ask an Expert, and access to a supportive online community. There is no cost to members.
RAwatch(TM) also features many interactive communication tools to put members in touch with one another. Some of us have the need to talk to people at different times, commented a RAwatch member. with the same problems. Sometimes that is therapy in itself.
RAwatch members also report that other RA-specific information currently available on the Web is difficult to find and tends to be scattered throughout many sites. RAwatch offers a single resource for valuable information and interaction.
Our goal is to make RAwatch the largest online community for people with rheumatoid arthritis, says Doug Morrow, Senior Product Manager (Rheumatology) with Aventis in a company statement. We hope to make RAwatch the primary, most comprehensive resource of its kind.
The features of RAwatch are designed to help members better manage their rheumatoid arthritis. The site has an extensive diary for members to record important health information. They can track doctor’s visits, medication compliance, and symptom flare-up, as well as log exercises.
