CareBuilders at Home Launches Innovative Virtual Caregiver Platform

TL;DR

CareBuilders at Home launches a virtual caregiver platform, providing technology and television-based solutions for seniors to connect with family members and friends. The platform is a subscription-based system exclusive to CareBuilders at Home.

The innovative Virtual Caregiver program is a subscription-based system exclusive to CareBuilders at Home. The cutting-edge technology turns a senior’s TV into an on-demand video call center. With the click of a button or a simple voice command, seniors are easily connected with family members, friends or a care team for face-to-face conversations and wellness checks.

These wellness assessments called “Check in and Chat” allows care team members to monitor changes in conditions, patterns, or behaviors that indicate an issue in the overall health of the client and allows for the appropriate parties to be notified and signals whether additional services need to be provided.

“The CareBuilders at Home Virtual Caregiver program is an effective alternative for seniors who may be resistant to traditional hourly home care services. This opens up an easy and unique way to attract new business and provides an additional revenue stream for our current and future franchise owners,” says Lori Yount, Vice-President of Operations at CareBuilders at Home.

Rising Demand for Home Care Services

The poor pandemic performance of nursing homes and assisted living facilities boosted awareness of the value of in-home care and the desire of older Americans to age in place.

Home care is a 93-billion-dollar industry in the United States; and based on the projected number of people turning 65 over the next few decades, it will continue to grow rapidly.

Whether it be in times of economic boom or times of recession, home care isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity and essential — which is the key to a solid business.
