Assistive technologies are gaining traction in senior care communities. Soon, older adults and their families will value a senior care community's technology features as much its dining options and caregiving staff.
From caregiver mobile apps to "smart" homes, digital tools are becoming a necessity for seniors transitioning between types of care. As care goes more digital, it becomes more critical than ever for senior living organizations to protect their IT systems against data breaches and the costly HIPAA fines that come with them.
Hello! My name is Gary Jones, and I'm the General Manager of Customer Experience here at vcpi.
Our team works diligently to fully understand our senior care clients' needs and strategic growth directions. We strive to deliver solutions to clients before they need them, essentially, to skate where the puck is going, not to where it has been. For many years, we've provided technology infrastructure planning and reliable implementation for senior living clients that are pursuing mergers, acquisitions and new construction.
Gone are the days where a "typical" caregiver is a female working at patient bedsides for 12 hour shifts. Technology is changing the senior care narrative, and you can use it to help older adults live their best lives.
Southwest LTC: Client Success Story
Southwest LTC, one of vcpi’s longest running clients, leased four buildings in March 2019 through their affiliates, which were scheduled to open in April. Timing and expertise mean everything with acquisition situations. We understand that caregivers must have on-demand access to patient records that hold medication information, scheduling, and more. Internet disruption makes it hard for employees to view these files, which can be life threatening to patients.
Research shows that Microsoft audits over 2/3 of businesses yearly for lack of licenses. We offer affordable solutions for senior care organizations.
Cost management is a critical component to a senior care organization’s IT strategy. Vcpi is a thought leader in cost management for assisted nursing and post-acute care organizations. As our customers’ ally in their business growth, we strive to regularly share mission critical industry insights.
Microsoft will no longer support Windows 7 as of 2020. Vcpi can upgrade your Windows 7 devices to reduce chances of data theft and the costly HIPAA fines that come with it.
The healthcare industry is notorious for experiencing data breaches, which is why it’s critical for providers to know about the end of Microsoft Windows 7. Upgrading Windows 7 to Windows 10 is the only way to continue receiving the upgrades and support needed to combat data theft. Unfortunately, healthcare has been the slowest industry to switch to Windows 10, which puts them at higher risk of cybercrime.
LIFEPlan CCO NY (LP): Client Success Story
In a short time, vcpi helped LIFEPlan CCO NY implement the IT systems they needed to achieve their IDD (intellectual or developmental disability) Health Home and Care Coordination designation from New York State.
Confidently Tackle Future & Emerging Technology Implementations
We are all challenged by how quickly the landscape of Senior Living technology changes as it moves forward. In the LTPAC industry, our ability to confidently adopt technology is what enables communities to enrich resident experiences, improve caregiver’s efficiency, and grow occupancy.
A network optimized to support the growing technology needs of both caregiving operations and resident consumption is imperative for these benefits to be realized.
