Technology

Elite Care's patented tracking technology is accessed via "Portals," and allows for Elite Care staff (and resident family members, online) to locate and check on residents from afar. In each of Elite Care's communities, pervasive sensors and staff assist residents in maintaining their independence, offering assistance as necessary and using sensors to monitor vital signs and health indicators. The facility's networked sensors let staff identify residents who might need immediate care. Databases that monitor trends overtime also reduce stress on staff members who must track the details of vital signs and medication status in delivering quality care. These sensors and databases also help residents integrate into the cluster's social environment. The environment includes actuators that can respond to the activities and whereabouts of residents.

Elite Care developed all aspects of their technology, including construction, care giving,and pervasive computing. Design goals included low-cost integration of technologies, unobtrusiveness, and an elder friendly software interface. The company's advisory committee included representatives from the Mayo Clinic, Harvard University, Providence Health System, Intel, University of Michigan, University of Wisconsin, Oregon Health Sciences University, Eindhoven University of Technology, and Sandia National Laboratory. Six primary stakeholder groups at Elite Care, each with its own set of needs and responsibilities, use the computing environments:

  1. The elderly residents
  2. Families of the residents
  3. Physicians and health care providers
  4. Staff caregivers
  5. The Elite Care management team that monitors the staff and residents

The system has bolstered national media attention for the company.
