Through eight pilots across the Netherlands, Germany, Ireland and Luxembourg, practitioners tested how virtual rehabilitation tools could support their daily care. These local experiments formed the foundation for something bigger: an open platform where trusted digital tools meet real-world care pathways.

Uptimise now connects:

• Practitioners, who can integrate proven digital apps into their treatment plans
  
  
• Patients, who can recover at their own pace, in their own space
  
  
• Developers, who can scale their health innovations and reach new users
  
  

The result? A shared ecosystem that turns innovation into everyday care.

This journey would not have been possible without the collaboration of dedicated project partners, including: Sint Maartenskliniek, Health Valley Netherlands, Université de Lille, VKKD | Verbund Katholischer Kliniken Düsseldorf, University College Cork, University College Dublin, Tilburg University, Radboud university medical center, Eurasanté, In4Care, Roessingh center for rehabilitation, University Hospital RWTH Aachen, and Centre National de Rééducation Fonctionnelle et de Réadaptation – Rehazenter.

Uptimise is not about replacing human care. It’s about making care more human, by meeting people where they are.

Patients get: 

• Flexible routines that fit around their lives  
• Easy-to-use digital tools, guided by professionals  
• Less travel, more support, and more control  

For practitioners, it saves time and extends reach.For developers, it removes barriers to scaling up. And for healthcare systems, it brings efficiency and resilience.

Rehabilitation shouldn’t be a luxury. By building an open digital “clinic,” the Scale-Up4Rehab project set out to make high-quality rehab available to more people, regardless of where they live.

With funding of over €6 million from Interreg NWE and a growing coalition of partners, Uptimise continues that mission. Together, we bring the best of digital health to the people who need it most.
