World Health Organization (WHO) - CH

It is widely recognized as one of the leading global reference institutions in the treatment of depression and other mental health disorders.

WHO develops guidelines, treatment protocols, and awareness campaigns, offering an evidence-based approach to managing depression in different cultural and economic contexts worldwide.

Caren has adopted the "Guidelines for Integrated Mental Health Care" from WHO as a reference to structure its care line, providing continuous follow-up tailored to patient needs.

Care Pathway for Depression

The Caren care line is enhanced by an intelligent system that continuously monitors patient data, allowing early detection of signs of worsening conditions or relapses in the clinical picture. The platform collects information from assessment questionnaires, treatment adherence, mental health-related indicators, and social support, cross-referencing this data to generate personalized alerts for healthcare teams. This contributes to a more precise and efficient follow-up, facilitating continuous management adapted to patient needs.
