The Touchscreen

The GrandCare remote monitoring/remote support platform starts with the stationary 17.2-inch GrandCare touchscreen. A GrandCare-supported person may have one touchscreen or several, depending on their needs. The touchscreen can deliver cognitive assists in the form of reminders for ADLs, medication, calendar appointments and much more.

GrandCare is designed to keep individuals safer, happier and more activity involved in their own care.

Health Devices

GrandCare can prompt a supported person to take a vital reading, automatically record it, and even reach out to the support team if that reading falls outside of predetermined parameters. GrandCare can help monitor blood pressure, blood glucose, oxygen, temperature, and weight. Notification rules, simple if-then statements, can be customized for each individual and their support team. (IF Stanley Kemper’s systolic blood pressure is greater than 130, THEN send notification to clinicalteam@yourorg.org)

Activity Sensors

The touchscreen also receives information from wireless motion or door sensors in the home and can alert the support team if unusual activity is detected. Similar to health-related alerts, activity notifications are created with if-then statements. (IF motion is detected in the kitchen between the hours of 10pm and 6am, THEN send text message to 24/7 support team).

Video Calls

The GrandCare touchscreen provides for secure video calls to and from the support team. These calls are peer-to-peer, encrypted, and HIPAA-compliant. Depending on the supported person’s needs, the support team may use the video call system to “drop in” without the supported person needing to do anything to connect the incoming call. This allows the support team to have immediate eyes and ears in the residence if needed. (A record of who called who, when and for how long, is logged.)

Engagement

Finally, the GrandCare touchscreen comes with loads of engaging content including games, jokes, trivia, live radio, classic audio books and other video and audio entertainment. The support team can also distribute survey questionnaires to their clients. These can be customised to suit just about every need.
