GrandCare Systems: Technology Enabling Independence

GrandCare combines ADL monitoring, tele-wellness assessment, senior social networking & cognitive assists into one easy-to-use system.

GrandCare is highly customizable and can be set up to fit your needs exactly. There is no "one size fits all" model, so it's easy to make sure each customer gets EXACTLY what he/she is looking for.

Essentially, we place a smart GrandCare System into the home of the resident/loved one. This system talks quietly and wirelessly with the chosen activity & telehealth sensors. Options range from motion, inside temperature, door, call-me buttons, bed/chair, caller-id on TV, blood pressure, weight, glucometer, pulse oxygen, etc.

Caregivers can log into our secured website from any remote location and check the sensor activity. They can also set up automated alerts. For example, they might want to receive an email if medications were not accessed and a phone call if there is a significant weight gain in a short period of time. Alerts are easy to set-up and can be customized to reflect ANYTHING you need to know. Of course, our dealers walk customers through rule set up and to ensure success!

There is a social/connectivity aspect to GrandCare, which separates us from other remote monitoring systems. It's called the Communication Station. Caregivers and Family can go to our website and easily send pictures, messages, emails, reminders, calendar appointments, videos, music and more right to a dedicated TV monitor or to an interactive touchscreen. The loved one can also play card games, trivia, see news/weather reports and more using an easy-to-use ATM-like TOUCHSCREEN.

    Can you give me more details on pricing, cost or if it is a leasing system that involves monthly monitoring charges?

    Hi Margaret, thanks for writing! There are several options. There are outright purchasing options or leasing options available. GrandCare has a dealer network nation-wide (and in Canada) who provide the system and installation. Exact costs will be determined by your local reseller (based upon the model and sensors chosen/installation). Leasing can range anywhere between $99 - $299/month. Again this depends on the lease terms and equipment/installation. If you would like me to get you in touch with a local dealer, please contact dealers@grandcare.com Thanks!!
