Two new discreet client monitoring systems launch with “unrivalled” levels of detail
StackCare UK has launched two new systems for the professional care industry – StackCare Pro and StackCare for Carers.
Building on the original StackCare @home system that was launched earlier this year, the new systems provide care home managers and professional carers with up-to-the-minute details on their clients’ wellbeing and activity levels, offering unrivalled extra levels of detail and resource to care packages.
Managers and agencies can monitor their clients both centrally, in their office using an online dashboard, and/or through an app on carers’ mobile phones. The systems allow staff to view the status of multiple clients and, as with StackCare @home, managers and carers can monitor activity levels and data including the number of bathroom visits the client makes, room temperatures and sleep patterns, with alerts sent if a client’s behaviour patterns change.
Door sensors and help buttons are also available as optional add-ons to both systems for clients who would benefit from extra monitoring and /or a direct communication link to their care team.
Using enhanced AI and machine-based learning, both the StackCare for Carers and StackCare Pro systems use discreet wireless smart motion sensors placed in key locations around the client’s home or care home room. There are no cameras or microphones, thereby ensuring privacy for clients.
A central hub gathers the data from the sensors which is analysed and reported back to the carer/agency. The data is anonymised and held in line with GDPR rules.
The founder of StackCare UK, Noel Verbruggen, commented: “These StackCare systems give care providers an unrivalled resource that brilliantly compliments existing care packages. The cutting edge technology means carers can know that their clients or residents are OK even when they can’t physically be with them.
“We all know that carers often can’t be with their clients for as long as they would like to be, and for busy carers and care homes time pressures are a real issue. It’s here that our smart tech comes into its own. Having instant access to StackCare’s data essentially gives carers an extra pair of hands and gives reassurance to carers, clients and clients’ families”.
