Functionality monitoring
BeneCare is designed to support the needs of senior
care providers. Our goal is to make sure that seniors receive the right
care at the right time. BeneCare provides data on individual’s
level of functioning based on the assessment of the daily activities,
social participation and living environment. Currently, individual
functional capabilities are assessed using standardized paper
questionnaires. This assessment method is time-consuming, and the
assessments are not performed routinely and continuously. Benete
delivers real-world data on the individual’s functioning which is
specifically tailored to the needs of the care professionals.
How it works
The operation of the service relies on sensor technology. Sensors
are placed in the senior’s home. Based on the collected data, the automated system analyses a person’s functional capability and evaluates how they are doing at home and how their need for help changes over time. For example, the system will indicate if the senior’s shower visits become less frequent and they may require professional help. With the help of our service, nursing homes and home care can meet customer needs more accurately and much earlier than before. The relatives also get up-to-date information about the senior’s functioning and well-being. It is especially important in situations where the subtle changes in the functionality can point to an early onset of a serious disorder.
Safe and secure
Analyses provided by the BeneCare service are visible to the senior, their relatives and care personnel through online service or in print. Use of the service and data collection is subject to individual consent. Collected personal data is not used or shared for any other purpose other than the use of the service. Under data protection legislation, the senior has the right to their personal data and can request its deletion or the termination of the service at any time.
