In-Home Device - GrandCare Releases

December 5, 2024

This minor release contains a number of fixes and tweaks, including one fairly significant change to the default behavior of websites. By default all websites will now be opened locked to the domain — this will prevent unauthorized access of any potentially problematic websites via links.

November 13, 2024

This major release focuses on improving pairing and communication with Bluetooth health devices. By removing support for several health devices that were End-of-Life we were able to greatly simplify the underlying Bluetooth drivers, leading to significantly more reliable pairing and reading capture. This also removed code that was preventing us from moving forward with planned OS updates.

Changed	Simplified Bluetooth drivers to streamline device pairing and communication

September 25, 2024

This major release provides a number of new requested features. One of these is the Zones of Regulation assessment question (as seen in the image above). This allows for quick and comprehensive communication of a resident’s mood or emotional state.

We have also added assessment specific rules under the Wellness Rules. This allows for actions to occur when an assessment is taken/not taken and if the score of the response is above or below a threshold. The actions of the rule are the standard GrandCare array of option: text message, email, phone call, managed alert notification, etc.

Many of our customers have told us of multiple alerts being generated in a short period of time from multiple On-Screen Button presses. We implemented a “cooldown” period for rules, allowing for a button rule to only execute once in a time period. This should prevent this issue moving forward.

Finally, a number of issues were resolved regarding Wifi, including the inability to connect to open / no password Wifi networks. We also fixed the issue with the slideshow advancing unexpectedly.

Added	Added support for Zones of Regulation assessment questions
Added	Added assessment rules under health rules in care menu

September 26, 2023

This release provides two new features: a door open rule “cool-down” and simplified medication creation.

The door open rule cool-down allows caregivers to prevent multiple alerts from going out for what is generally the same event. This reduces workload for caregivers by allowing them to only respond to the initial alert, not any subsequent events for a time period.

The simplified medication creation allows a caregiver to quickly add a morning, midday, or evening medication schedule. This removes all the complications of defining NDC and all the individual medication fields and creates the defined schedule, all by pressing a single button.
