Shows your culture of caring

Families sometimes do not see that a community deeply cares for the individuals placed in their hands. We can help you deliver on the promise of person-centered care in a tangible way that is immediately obvious to residents and families.

• With SimpleC you demonstrate your commitment to person-centered care. You can see it with the Companion in each room.
• SimpleC creates an environment that is soothing and satisfying for the care team, family caregivers, and individuals.
• SimpleC brings about a culture of caring that puts families more at ease that their loved one is in good care.
• Smiling staff and engaged residents make all the difference in building a community that families are proud to be a part of.

Provides a higher level of care

SimpleC supports your goals of providing a quality day and quality care for your residents. We can advance the person-centered care you already offer, giving you a competitive advantage:

• Ease residents’ transition into a new community. Moving into a new environment can be stressful. SimpleC provides the connection and common ground that helps individuals feel at home, reducing the need for medication.
• SimpleC captures best practices for each resident and makes it available to the whole care team. Knowing what helps your residents get through the day can make all the difference.
• Your staff can develop a more personal understanding of each individual, their specific likes, dislikes, and needs. Quality of care improves due to better connection, trust, and understanding.

Empowers your care team

Your care team must balance the desire to provide high-quality care with the need to perform and complete assignments on a timely basis. With SimpleC you provide your care team with the knowledge and tools to make it more effective, efficient, and satisfied with care routines:

• Empower your care team with residents’ life stories. With SimpleC you can help your care team build trust by knowing all residents, their life histories, and interests. Your care team will feel closer and more connected.
• Empower your care team in care routines. SimpleC offers a caring approach to support assignments and increase efficiency throughout the day. Compassionately redirect behaviors and focus time on providing emotional support.
• The interventions are designed to prepare your residents for upcoming care events and relate in a more positive manner. This provides a pleasant engagement for the individual and eases completing daily tasks such as bathing and housekeeping. It also helps you retain your care team and make their job more rewarding.
• Keeping track of care services. SimpleC enables care team to capture and communicate with each other what care services have been provided. You can generate reports internally and for families to ensure that each individual receives the services they signed up for.
• All the above empowers your staff to:
  • spend less time on managing behaviors
  • spend more time on providing the care that residents need
  • know what care service have been provided
  • conveniently report which care services they provided in a manner and at a time that best fits in their work flow

Improves social interaction

SimpleC facilitates communication between care team, residents, and families.

• Improve family visits. Families and residents have illustrations and sound tracks for important family stories that help loved ones to communicate with each other.
• Friendships are built through SimpleC as residents and care team can share favorite sports or love for animals. This enables resident and care team to see each other in a new light.
• Stimulate conversation among individuals by playing individual residents’ stories, personal interests, and hobbies in the common areas.
• We also offer opportunities for the whole family to get involved in the process. Family members can participate in creating their loved one’s life history. They can find and share pictures and lend their voices, enabling them to express their love and care.

Simple to use

The technology underlying SimpleC is complex, but we go to great lengths to make it simple and easy for you to use:

• We use intuitive touch screens and designed SimpleC via extensive testing (10 years of field testing).
• SimpleC is built on a sophisticated and reliable information network. You do not require any additional staff or training to maintain it.
• Should a problem occur, you can usually resolve it by just turning the power off and on again.
• The multimedia displays require little local support and function largely independently. They “call home” for updated software and content over an internet connection.
• Users cannot accidentally alter important device settings.
• Set up is as easy as plug and play.

Based in science

The key components of SimpleC are drawn from long-standing concepts in scientific literature such as:

• Reminiscence therapy
• Music therapy
• Reality orientation
• Simulated presence

Because we strive to create a solution for a community environment:

• SimpleC is based on needs of residents and care team
• We designed and extensively tested our solution in real care settings

Furthermore, our Director of Research is in conversation with academic partners. Independent scientific studies are underway, and more are planned.
