]]> Comment on NHS Somerset’s £1.2m 4,000 patient Telecare project replaces expensive Tunstall Boxes with Smartphones by David Doherty http://mhealthinsight.com/2012/05/10/nhs-somersets-1-2m-4000-patient-telecare-project-replaces-expensive-tunstall-boxes-with-smartphones/#comment-16148 Sun, 20 May 2012 19:58:27 +0000 http://mhealthinsight.com/?p=16389#comment-16148 Hi “telecare”,

Check out the SeNCit Mobile Connected Care Monitor from SendTech:

http://www.sendtech.co.uk/SeN-Cit/index.shtml

Several advantages over an automated caller service including:

> Avoids the need for automated callers and the fatigue that patients can experience with long term use of these

> Prevents seniors feeling annoyed/inconvenienced by the need to go and answer a fixed line phone

> Can monitor for intruders in the event a patient leaves the home

> Can automatically monitor for and report on power outs

> Can automatically monitor for and report on temperature variations outside preset parameters

> Can monitor for nocturnal urination frequency (biggest risk factor for Hip Fractures)

> Value for money. I see the TelecareTechnology offering is only £2 per week – because it’s 100% automated the SenCit even beats that!

Let me know if you’d like an introduction to Mark or Helen at SendTech, they’re also based in the UK and are looking for more distributors.
