OwlCare Recognized as a Leading Care Technology
EMC Healthcare Corporation, based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has made headlines with its innovative digital care service, "OwlCare." This service has recently been selected by the Technoaid Association as a prominent care technology in the category of surveillance and communication. This recognition has significant implications for the service's integration into care facilities across Japan.
What is OwlCare?
OwlCare is not just a care service; it is a comprehensive digital platform that amalgamates various monitoring sensors and nurse call systems, which were previously available as individual services. Leveraging AI technologies such as image recognition and behavior detection, it aims to enhance real-time information sharing with caregivers and facilitate communication with residents. This innovative approach significantly eases the workload on healthcare staff, streamlines personnel distribution, and effectively addresses several challenges faced by the caregiving industry, particularly in maintaining quality care for aging populations.
The Significance of the Technoaid Association Recognition
The recognition of OwlCare as a care technology means that it meets one of the essential criteria for subsidy utilization under the "Care Technology Introduction Support Project." Overseen by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, this initiative encourages the adoption of robotics and ICT in caregiving to improve service quality and decrease the burden on staff while supporting the autonomy of the elderly.
The Technoaid Association has incorporated OwlCare into its Technical Aids Information System (TAIS), and receiving a TAIS code (02372-000001) solidifies its credibility in the caregiving community. This not only catalyzes the adoption of OwlCare in various municipalities but also aligns with government-backed subsidy programs, thereby making it more accessible to care providers.
