Residential & care homes
A sensitive balance needs to be struck in running a residential home or care facility. It's the balance between providing support and a continuous caring presence, and allowing clients an appropriate level of independence.
EAT can play an exceptional role in achieving this balance. Through the automation of a home's infrastructure, clients can have the freedom to open doors and windows and control their immediate environment without having to call on external assistance. It makes everyone's lives easier.
Then, through technology personalised to their particular needs and disability, clients can be self-reliant in whatever personal space the facility provides. Controlling lighting, TVs, phones, bed risers and recliners: EAT makes all this possible.
Combine this with monitoring systems and personalised alarms which can detect falls and any other potentially harmful situations, and EAT vastly improves the way in which homes work. It creates a perfect balance between personal freedom and professional support: and that's the gold standard in residential care.
