SARASOTA FL - A unique new service is being launched to help
elder care professionals stay close to their clients, provide a new
service unlike their competitors,' earn extra income, and know when a client
is in trouble.
It's called FineThanx, and it's available to home health care
agencies, care managers, medical professionals, and independent living
facilities. Besides helping them market their own services, it provides a
fresh flow of income to the sponsoring agency.
Here's how it works: FineThanx makes twice daily phone calls to
check on the well-being of the aging person or other client. The
automated system says, "If you are OK, press 1. If you need assistance,
press 2."
If the client requests assistance, or doesn't answer, after repeated calls
within 60 minutes, the service notifies its sponsoring home health
agency, care manager, medical professional, or independent living facility.
Additionally, the sponsor can be kept informed of clients' status via
email. So the sponsor can be constantly in touch with each client. "It's
important to note," says FineThanx, "that the system gets help for a client
even if
they do nothing, even if they don't press '1' or '2.'"
It's totally flexible. When numbers and call times need to be
changed, FineThanx makes the changes. The new service - which requires no
machines, no pendants, no bracelets - can work alone or with a panic
button installation.
"The sponsoring agency gets multiple benefits," comments Peter
Scharff, CEO. "It's providing a valuable service to clients, keeping
connected with the clients, adding income, and extending its penetration
further into the community while differentiating itself from the
competition. For all potential sponsors, the new service "is a wonderful
way to get and keep clients," Mr. Scharff commented.
The FineThanx system is flexible enough to fit situations where
clients live in an independent living facility or at home. In either
case, the system keeps caregivers connected to their clients.
It requires no equipment and no installation and is quick and easy to start and stop.
