Tailored technology
As we are not a technology manufacturer, we can choose the best technology the market has to offer. This may include existing and proven technology, or new and innovative technology which can be piloted to show how it offers better solutions.
Whichever technology we source we will ensure it is easy for your teams to understand the benefits it will deliver, is compatible with other solutions and users feel happy and confident having it in their home.
As technology develops, we are also working with:
- Analytics - algorithms and software which can use a range of sensors to build a picture of someone's movement to health to identify potential problems before they happen
- Helping people better use the technology they already have - such as Amazon 'Alexa', fitness bands, or Apps that are available for smartphones or tables
- Communication devices that support direct communication between clinicians and patients in their own homes
Whatever the technology, we ensure it fits with the whole care pathway, and with the people, teams and processes needed to deliver the best outcomes. Technology is part of a wider system of care, and we ensure the whole system is taken into account.


Measuring success
We measure success based on the objectives you are prioritising. For example we have devised a benefits realisation model in partnership with customers to capture the savings made from replacing other care package elements, and from avoiding or delaying admission into care. But we also look at the measures you already have in place and how TECS can positively impact those - for example falls prevention, improved reablement, reduced DToC and reduced readmission to hospital.
