GrandCare enables individuals to remain independent and at home by remotely assessing activities of daily living, remotely managing chronic health conditions, maintaining virtual communications between the individual and family/care partners through an easy to use interactive touchscreen, virtual visits with two-way web conferencing and encouraging mental activity and brain fitness.

The GrandCare Interactive Touch Screen System is placed in the residence and connected to any dedicated Internet Connection. It communicates wirelessly with designated “wireless” sensors throughout the home. Designated Caregivers/Family can log into the GrandCare Website and access sensor graphs, vitals and set up parameters/rules to receive alerts if specific events occur (meds are not taken, door is opened at odd times, fridge is not accessed at meal time, individual did not get out of bed, blood pressure is too high, excessive weight gain, etc.). Family can virtually send pictures, messages, emails, reminders, calendar appointments, YouTube videos and more to the Interactive Touch Screen in the residence. The resident does NOT need to know how to use a computer to operate the GrandCare System. GrandCare offers optional brain exercises, news headlines, weather reports, trivia, card games, entertainment pieces, spiritual offerings, quotations, videos, word definitions and more as optional selections for the resident.
