Videra Virtual Care is a high-quality and versatile package that utilises state-of-the-art video conferencing technology. A real-time video connection allows the provision of easy-to-use and cost-efficient solutions for health care professionals in order to enhance the efficiency of operations and improve services.
Videra offers new potential for senior citizens to live independently at home, for consultations between doctors and for the post-operative rehabilitation of a patient, for example.
As the post-war generation grows older, the need for home care will increase in the future. Videra Virtual Home Care makes it possible to keep in contact with ageing people through an interactive Well-being TV. In the easy-to-use service, the functions can be handled through a remote control or by means of a touch screen, as with a television set. Videra's Well-being TV enables a high-quality and genuine interactive situation between senior citizens and the experts in social and health care services, in addition to which relatives living in another locality may keep in contact with the senior citizen from their own laptop, for example.
The aim of the service is also to improve and safeguard senior citizens' independent living at home. In addition to Well-being TV, Virtual Home Care includes a separate security system that reacts to hazardous situations. The security system, based on computer vision, recognises predetermined hazardous situations, such as falls, fire or the unintentional exit of a person with a memory disorder. The security system switches the vision on only when it detects a hazardous situation. Thus, this is not a surveillance system but a health care security device, such as a fire alarm or a security bracelet.
Videra Virtual Health Care enables the consultation of a general practitioner or specialist through a video conferencing connection utilising high definition video conferencing technology. Information on the patient's medical history is transferred in real time between the persons responsible for making care decisions, which enhances the efficiency of the care event. By means of the video connection, it is possible to chart the need for continued care at the health centre of the patient's own locality, and care procedures can be started immediately, reducing the need to transfer patients. The service provides efficient and fast treatment regardless of time, place or distance.
Thanks to the image and audio connections that function without delays, several persons may participate in the care situation, and hearing from the patient is also possible. The service concept can also be utilised in teaching situations and in the rationalisation of administrative activities, which saves costs.
The rehabilitation of a patient is now even more efficient thanks to Videra's Virtual Rehabilitation video connection. Systems enabling video rehabilitation take care of the patient's rehabilitation by means of the interactive Well-being TV, which brings instructors to the patient's home in an instant.
A patient's discharge from hospital after surgery, for example, can be made faster, as the rehabilitation period can be continued at home through a video connection. Several rehabilitees can be simultaneously present at the rehabilitation event. The service concept is an efficient and cost saving form of rehabilitation, which brings the instructions and movements of the physiotherapist directly to the home of the rehabilitee.
Virtual Rehabilitation is tailored according to the wishes of each customer.
