Integrated systems that monitor biometric readings and uploads them to central database where doctors, nurses, and family members can view the information. By charting these biometric readings over time, medical professionals can analyze trends in the readings.
The GrandCare system combines aspects of smart home technology, internet communications, and Telehealth in one flexible, user friendly package.
The system consists of a central unit connected to a TV or monitor, and a source of internet. The system will then provide a continuous display of news, weather, pictures, email, reminders etc. to the monitor. At the same time, the unit listens to a wide range of wireless sensors, which monitor activities of daily living and wellness.
The system can then be accessed via the internet by remote family or professional caregivers to assess the wellness and safety. The system can be instructed to send an email, text message, or phone call to the caregivers if something is amiss. The caregivers can also use the web interface to send pictures, email, and reminders to the home system.
