Two Kent care homes are reaping the rewards of integrating smart technology from interactiveMe to keep their residents mentally stimulated and connected with loved ones throughout the UK’s second lockdown.
Staff at Woodstock Residential Care Centre in Sittingbourne and St Winifreds Care Centre in Deal are already noticing an increase in resident engagement following the implementation of the interactiveMe handheld smart devices in their respective homes.
Both homes, which are part of the Nellsar Care Group, have been able to create engaging and interactive activity plans to improve the mental health of their residents during the COVID-19 pandemic. They have also been able to prompt families via SMS to stay connected with their residents through simple and secure video and photo sharing.
