HealthcareWorkflow Management4HighCare Staff$ implied

Long-term care staff are forced to use an EMAR system to schedule and document all ADL cares, causing unnecessary disturbances to residents and distress to staff.

The EMAR system is designed for medication administration and cannot handle unscheduled, resident-initiated ADL cares. It forces rigid time stamps and schedules, which lead to over-scheduling and resident agitation.

Workarounds Described

  • Using EMAR system to schedule ADL cares like medications

  • Purpose-built ADL tracking software that allows unscheduled, resident-triggered cares
  • Integration with resident service plans to automatically adjust care requirements
App Concept

ADL Flow Tracker

A mobile app purpose-built for tracking ADL cares in long-term care settings. It allows care staff to document cares as they happen, not on a fixed schedule, and respects resident autonomy by enabling on-demand assistance. It integrates with existing EMAR systems but separates medication from ADL tracking.

Key Features
  • Flexible task tracking without rigid time stamps
  • Resident-specific care plans with on-demand/PRN support flags
  • Real-time documentation on mobile devices
  • Integration with EMAR systems but distinct ADL workflow
Target Users: Care staff and nurses in assisted living facilities and long-term care homes
Revenue Model: $49/mo per facility plus $5/mo per active user, SaaS subscription
