HEALTHCARE

Exploring technology enabled support in the home

Taking Care were at UKTelehealthcare’s “How SMART is Your Home?”, 27th September 2022

October 10, 2022

Technology care event

Our Business Development team attended UKTelehealthcare’s event "How SMART is Your Home", hosted by one of our customers, the London Borough of Bexley.

The day was a mixture of sharing ideas, discussing key developments, making new contacts, and catching up with customers and Technology Enabled Care (TEC) partners. Chiptech, our partner in private pay digital products, also attended to assist showcasing our popular Taking Care Anywhere elderly GPS tracker personal alarm.

The event explored how smart homes and TEC can be used to support service users improve their quality of life and provide a range of cost-effective services in health, social care, and housing. Speakers from the London Borough of Bexley, Policy Connect and the Metropolitan Police shared their insights.

Over 120 people attended this forward-looking event where they had the opportunity to discover more about how Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) can be used to support health and social care in the home.
