IoT in healthcare has been an interesting topic for pharma management, hospital owners, drug distributors, and surgeons. But, real healthcare seeker lives in individual homes. There are many solutions that COCO’s IoT platform delivers for home dwellers in their smart home. 

To deliver home healthcare using IoT, what do you need?

Your IoT system should be able to deliver commands, provide processing and reporting engines with two-way real-time interactions, notification engine, rules engine, user interface simplification, cluster, and group creation. These together form the common building blocks of an IoT system. Majority of the connectivity is common in healthcare, but there is a reasonable portion that needs customization. COCO provides such exclusive customization too.

COCO provides remote and offline connectivity. This allows the caregivers to receive updates, alarms about anomalies, or communicate with the person being treated.

Patient-provider communication privacy

The young and the elderly are often vulnerable to allergic reactions and chronic infections. Due to irritants and particles in the environment, the health could be compromised. Smart health bundles that address fundamental healthy environments include the air purifier, temperature sensors, and heat sensors, integrated into the IoT gateway.
