Home Care Technology

Maintaining the highest level of independent living is a key goal for many individuals whether they are recovering from an illness, living with a chronic disease, or aging in place. Environmental barriers in and outside the home are often critical deterrents to maintaining that independence. Modern technology is producing medications and systems that allow our citizens to live longer healthier lives. Technology can bring services to individuals, rather than the individual to services.

Interim Connect

Imagine being able to push a button and call a trained professional 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not just for emergencies, but any time you have a question or concern. Now you can. Interim Connect is a unique way that Interim HealthCare integrates technology into the delivery of care.

Medication Management Systems

The issue of unnecessary hospital re-admissions is front and center in today's conversation about health care. One of the top reasons people are re-admitted to the hospital is due to missed medication doses or taking the wrong dose of medication.

Personal Response Systems

Slips, trips and falls are a major cause of concern for the infirm and elderly, especially for those living alone. Hundreds of thousands of people are found helpless in their homes because of falls every year. It is not uncommon to hear of persons who have fallen, and due to inability to move, have spent hours or days on the floor until they are found.

Telehealth Systems

The Health Resources Services Administration defines telehealth as the use of electronic information and telecommunications technologies to support long-distance clinical health care, patient and professional health-related education, public health and health administration. Technologies include videoconferencing, the internet, store-and-forward imaging, streaming media, and terrestrial and wireless communications.
