As we near the end of 2021, we wanted to look back on the year and what we have achieved during these unprecedented and ever-changing times.
It’s fair to say that no-one in either the care or technology sectors could have foreseen at the beginning of 2020 how the following two years would unfold. Yet what has been a time of great challenge for the care sector in particular has also proved to be a time of great opportunity – to embrace new ways of working, and with it, new technology.
As 2020 began our founders had already begun making plans to bring a holistic care management system to the market, and in early 2021 their vision was realised as PredicAire was launched and is now actively used amongst care providers. It came as a welcome surprise seeing how quickly the care sector moved towards digitalisation. Our idea put us ahead of the curve and meant that we were ready to offer care providers a complete care home management system under a single data ecosystem.
Changes which may have seemed a long way off at the beginning of 2020, but which are now common practice in the sector, include:
All of these changes are easily facilitated through PredicAire and, as the trend is being seen to be adopted as standard practice, PredicAire enables care providers to introduce a single system which meets the needs of their staff, residents, visiting professionals, families, and inspectors.
PredicAire is on a continuous journey to improve and enhance, and one of the latest features to be introduced is the ‘Hospital Passport’, released in November 2021. The Hospital Passport enables a care home to provide a comprehensive set of key information about a resident at a touch of a button, and this has already proven to assist paramedics when the resident is about to be taken to hospital, without staff scrambling to collate it – saving several valuable minutes for everyone.
PredicAire was founded with the key aim of predicting and preventing unnecessary outcomes, and this is achieved through its unique use of Artificial Intelligence (Ai).
During the year we have been introducing ourselves and PredicAire to the market and have taken part in several online events, including a Tech East ‘Tea and Toast’ session and a webisode on “Tech-Enabled Care” hosted by the Dementia, Care and Nursing Home Expo.
We were also very proud that one of our founders, Vinay Patel, was named as one of the Top 100 Asian Stars in UK Tech for 2021.
Our team continues to grow. Rob Hammond has recently joined our Advisory Board, but we aren’t stopping there. We are actively looking for individuals passionate about care and technology to join us on our growth journey re-imagining the delivery of care.
As we look forward to 2022, we’re excited to see where the PredicAire journey takes us next. If you would like to join us and see what PredicAire can do for your care business, please contact us to arrange a demo.
