Keeping Records with the Rodger App

Record keeping is an important part of achieving nighttime dryness. Not only will you be able to monitor progress, but a visual record can be a potential motivator for your child.

It’s important that records be kept each day since it’s easy to forget what’s happened over a series of nights. The problem is that most families are very busy in the mornings and record keeping is easy to forget.

That’s why the Rodger App, that comes with the purchase of the Rodger wireless alarm, is so helpful. (This is the only alarm on the market that has a record keeping App.) Each morning you receive a reminder to record the night’s progress on the Rodger calendar.  It’s simple for your child to see their progression from all Wet Nights to Little Wets to Dry Nights.  You simply enter a score from 1 to 5, which records what happened the previous night.

If your child is motivated with reward systems, this App also allows you to list nine rewards of your choosing. As your child makes progress, the App notifies you when a reward is earned. The best part is that these rewards are not only for dry nights, but for things like cooperation, getting up when the alarm sounds, using the alarm for a week, etc. Rewards that you select, and Rodger badges help with motivation. 

Your calendar can easily be shared with your health care provider, other parent or anyone else you might choose. It can be emailed directly from the App to the interested party.

This is a superior way of documenting progress because it takes so little time each day and gives you the big picture of progress over weeks.
