Overview
SmartCare provides the tools a home health agency needs to implement a best-in-class readmission prevention and transitions management program. Through the use of a wireless device, the patient will have 24/7 access to care.

24/7 Access to Care
With SmartCare, your patient presses a button and immediately connects to a trained professional. Phones are answered under the name of your agency to provide consistency.
By calling SmartCare instead of 911 for non-emergent issues, the patient avoids a potential visit to the hospital, keeping your readmission rate down.
