What the family sees at home, turned into clinical information.
A structured home-observation instrument for families caring for a neurological patient.
Between two visits, the doctor sees the patient for a few minutes. The caregiver sees them every day. This journal turns what the family sees into information the doctor can use.
Free, always, for patients and families.
How it's used
A narrative in the order you'd actually use the journal — not a gallery.
Five steps, read once
The journal explains itself on a single page. No training, no app, no one needed to show you how it works.
Only when something is different
When the day was unlike the others, you open a page and tick what happened in the last 24 hours. Poor sleep, a missed dose, constipation, a brewing infection — things no one connects to evening agitation until they see them written side by side.
What seems to help
Almost every clinical instrument asks what's going wrong. This page asks what's going right — and those observations rarely reach the doctor.
And a page about you
The caregiver's brain carries part of the weight of this illness. Your own state is clinical information, not a footnote.
When the patient takes over the journal
The patient edition adds the Firsts page: every thing you do again for the first time, however small. Recovery is hard to see up close — that's why we record it.
The Navi Journal
One instrument, two ways to use it. A structured way to notice what changes day to day — and to bring it to your doctor.
In the app
The same journal, with reminders, trends over time, and a summary you can hand to your doctor. Free to use, works on your phone — nothing to install.
Open the app
Two editions
Care Edition
For the family member or carer who observes and records for someone else.
Recovery Edition
For the patient recovering, who can record for themselves.
Usually the family starts the journal. When the patient recovers, they take it over — the two editions are designed to hand over to one another.
Aligned with validated instruments for the functional sections, in routine clinical use.
Clinical validation: Dr. Silviu Stanciu, MD, Neurology
Clinical validation and patient perspective: Dr. Mihaela Iftode, MD, Lab medicine
