James Aldridge

Complete with communication channels that highlight problem areas, in order to implement pro-active injury and claims prevention activity with quality health providers, unlocks the true value of the product above and beyond the reinforcement and training aspects. Well done to the DeskActive team!"

Chris Luxford
CEO
3D Networks
"Deskactive brings to the Australian consumer and business markets the opportunity for 'real life' easily managed preventative healthcare. Early intervention is critical in many conditions yet access to healthcare professionals is time consuming, expensive and often heavily delayed by wait times. Deskactive significantly improves access to and ongoing management of preventative health outcomes."
About 3D Networks
3D Networks understand that the healthcare sector is always under pressure to keep costs down, reduce medical errors and improve the quality of the patient’s stay, whilst having to deal with increasing demands for more efficient sharing of patient information – and more regulation governing the privacy of that information. Not to mention the effects of an aging population and the demands this places on the overall infrastructure of hospitals, clinics and nursing homes.
3D Networks embraces the concept and realities of the digital hospital to deliver higher quality care, more expedient care, a richer more productive working environment for hospital staff and an enhanced patient experience.

Testimonials - Users
Kate O’Keeffe
Innovation & Commercialization Manager
South East Water
"DeskActive is a great assistance for all of us that suffer from chronic pain aggravated by having to sit at a desk all day. By reminding me to take a quick break when I need it most, and guiding me through stretches that focus on my problem-spots, it genuinely makes for a better day, and a better day's work."
Dr. David Dembo
Leader - Health and Human Services
Microsoft Australia
"DeskActive is an intelligent solution to the inability of our healthcare workforce to scale.
Because of these workforce challenges, people are needing to take an ever increasing role in managing their own wellness and recovery. The use of healthcare avatars is a genuine bridge between leaving patients to their own devices and holding their hands.
Additionally, the Health System needs to take a programmatic approach to peoples wellness and their recovery rather than fragmented intervention and advice. DeskActive does both of these well."

Professional Learning Manager
Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER)
"DeskActive is a very useful tool to assist ACER to provide a healthy and safe workplace for our employees. It enables our staff to periodically undertake stretches and exercises, to alleviate the discomfort commonly associated with working at a desk. DeskActive has proved itself to be a cost-effective, flexible and adaptive program that has been well supported by the DeskActive team. DeskActive makes good business sense for ACER and it is very popular with our staff."
