We have a number of exciting new innovative technologies being installed and implemented at our Manhattan Group Home to help the individuals living in the home be more self-reliant and independent. We have installed Smart Speaker Technology for general alarms, reminders, and prompting. We have two separate prompting systems (one for each floor) that integrate with various sensor technologies to increase safety and independence in the home. This system also provides prompting around making healthy lifestyle choices. Additionally, one individual is using her iPad as an educational tool to learn more about her medications in an effort to increase her medication independence. This, in conjunction with an automated Medication Reminder Box will go a long way toward increasing her self-reliance around medications. Staff are working hard to support the individuals in the home with learning how to best utilize these new technologies to continue to develop their skills and achieve their goals. We look forward to continuing to see progress around utilization of these technologies within the Manhattan Group Home throughout the coming months!
Great work Manhattan team with helping further Imagine!'s mission by creating opportunities for the individuals to grow in their skills through amazing technology solutions!
