Geonovo Unveils the UK's First High Performance Digital Telecare Platform

SLOUGH, England, January 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Innovative broadband, telephony and telecare service offers real-time monitoring of telecare devices to protect vulnerable users.

Geonovo is pleased to announce the launch of the Home Health Hub^TM, a groundbreaking telecommunications package specifically designed to ensure highly resilient connectivity for telecare users.  In addition, Home Health Hub^TM (H³) provides a future proof platform for hardware and software developers to roll out the next generation of digital telecare products and services.

One of the unique features underpinning Geonovo's Home Health Hub^TM is livewire, a Network Management System (NMS) that enables safer telecare, broadband and telephone services.  Livewire proactively monitors the 'heartbeat' of phone lines, routers and network devices to ensure they are connected and working properly.  If a problem is detected, livewire immediately alerts telecare monitoring centres and if required, informs carers, friends or family who can provide local assistance.

Home Health Hub Key Features:

• Low cost telecoms and telecare package with free broadband
• Includes telecare alarm phone and wireless router
• 24/7 line and router monitoring - 'always on'
• Real time connected device monitoring
• 6 hour service level agreement (SLA) & engineer response
• Available to partners/service providers

The designers of the H³ service platform, Geonovo Ltd, have a proven track record of pioneering telecare technologies, having received the Telecare Services Association's 'Best Innovation Award' in 2011.  Following this success, the company established a special partnership with TalkTalk, the industry leading broadband and telephony service provider.  Close collaboration has enabled the delivery of exceptional quality network connectivity at a highly competitive price point which features business class performance and a 6 hour SLA for residential users.  The launch of H³ will be welcome news for the telecare industry, its customers and the NHS, as the quality and breadth of services will expand due to faster, 'always on' IP connectivity.

The Home Health Hub^TM also represents a breakthrough in the promotion of social inclusion by delivering free broadband to a currently underserviced demographic.  H³provides service users with simple to use, secure communication links which will improve the lives of vulnerable people who may be isolated at home.  H³ offers tremendous potential for improving telecare services such as facilitating virtual visits for doctors and other healthcare workers, delivery of managed content to users, CCTV and activity monitoring, connection of telehealth devices, shared diaries, medication reminders and a multitude of other healthcare and assisted living technologies.
