The demand for connected Independent Living technology
With more people living longer, the level of strain on healthcare systems has been steadily increasing for quite some time.
Following the recent outbreak of COVID-19, healthcare organisations are looking for ways that allow elderly and vulnerable patients to stay safe in their own home while also providing them with the level of independence and support required. Not only does this provide them with a more fulfilling life and help to keep them shielded from the pandemic, but it also helps to alleviate the strain and limit overall costs that healthcare systems are facing.
We are now seeing the rapid growth of connected technology in the assisted living space. Technologies such as wearables and implants with cardiac and biometric sensors, blood pressure and glucose level monitoring can all track vital signs and send either an emergency communication in real time to care providers or enable the patient to perform blood, respiratory and other tests from the comfort of their own home, without the need to go into the doctor’s surgery or hospital. Movement sensors help to monitor daily patterns and alert family members and care workers if the patient has taken a fall or moved outside of their protected living space if living with dementia or Alzheimer’s.
Why are eHealth solution providers turning to cellular connectivity?
Independent living solutions require different levels of bandwidth, depending on the application type, when transmitting data from the patients’ device back to the healthcare organisation. With cellular connectivity, solution providers offer a choice of connectivity, bandwidth, and network with tariffs suitable for each deployment.
Typical connectivity for these applications can be 4G for higher bandwidth applications that require fast, secure and resilient connectivity or LTE-M for low latency and high speed, ideal for devices that require a long battery life and larger data packages to be sent in a short space of time.
