Bethany Community is enhancing its value-added service with innovative new technology which includes the CareTracker.
The objective of the CareTracker, a computer-based method of charting the daily functions of a residents’ care, is to increase the amount of time the caregivers have to spend engaged in resident care.
By reducing the paperwork load on them and providing a touch-screen enabled wall-mounted kiosk, the staff have more time for direct care. The kiosks themselves are relatively unobtrusive as they are simply LCD screens mounted to the walls in resident common areas.
No keyboard or mouse is required, as all entries are done using just the touch of a finger to the screen. Staff members are guided by prompts that help them to chart the activities of daily living and other factors related to the care of people living at Bethany Community.
