M2M (machine-to-machine) technology extends the reach of assisted living homecare systems to any location where cellular coverage is available. Inconspicuous, easy to use
M2M telemonitoring devices utilize mobile, wireless sensors to remotely monitor and communicate patients' vital health parameters, whether at home or on the go. Assisted Living devices can also offer behavioral monitoring and, when needed, automatically call for help in real time, which allows for faster reaction times and can ultimately help save lives.
Case summaryThe daughter of an elderly man is concerned about her father's state of health. During her lunch break at work, she logs on to her father's Assisted Living health portal for a status update. She notices that some of his health values were out of the normal range that morning. Feeling worried, she sends a message to her dad's wrist-worn health monitor to check-in and find out if he is OK. Her Dad responses 'yes, all is well', and with the push of a button, the message is transmitted back to the health portal. The man's daughter is glad for the quick response. She's also able to view his updated health data, which was automatically sent with her dad's response.
