Aged Care & Health |
|
Broadband for Seniors program (BFS), an NEC
project, is being rolled out across Australia
where Kiosks are being installed at Community
Centres to teach the elderly how to use the
Internet. As part of this program, Knowledge
Community’s Aged Care software system is linked
to provide an Aged Care portal containing a web
site for each community as well as giving each
person their own membership site. This includes
their own diary record and ability to invite
their children and grandchildren into the site.
The system provides medical alerts as well as
linking the senior to their key carer and
relative. They can be given permission to add
appointments into the senior’s calendar as well
as engaging in direct communication via Chat,
SMS or email.
This pro-active program has been designed to
reduce the incidents of loneliness, depression
and medical mistakes all of which contribute to
the high cost of aged care services. |

Personal
Health
Diary |
Acryn has created a Personal Health Diary (PHD)
so that people living with issues such as
Diabetes, Cardiovascular disease, Stroke,
Asthma, Cystic Fibrosis and others can record
daily events and activities covering exercise,
diet, test results, incidents and then produce a
weekly or monthly chart highlighting their
progress over that period. The chart could be
printed out or emailed to the person’s medical
practitioner.
This PHD record has also been integrated with
the Australian e-health record allowing people
the means to be able to give permission to the
medical profession to be able to view their
files and medical history.
At present Acryn is operating a pilot program to
learn how this system will benefit people live
and improve medical and personal health
outcomes. It will allow these people to take key
control of their own issue. As part of the
pro-active drive it is anticipated that health
costs would reduce over time.
