B — Regis Evidence Base

Home Care & AlayaCare

Regis reported that it implemented AlayaCare as a significantly improved technology platform for its home-care business. Home care introduces the most variable context in the organisation.

Publicly described home-care services

Regis' home-care material describes assessment, individual needs and goals, care plans, dedicated care partners, clinical care, assistive technology, home modifications, restorative care, end-of-life care, dementia support, disability support and in-home palliative support.

Why home care changes the disclosure problem

Variable context

  • staff may use mobile devices
  • care occurs away from a Regis facility
  • workers may have different qualifications
  • connectivity may vary
  • location can be relevant

Variable participants and purpose

  • multiple external providers may attend
  • information needs differ by task
  • family members and supporters may participate
  • the client's condition and care level may change
  • emergency escalation may occur

CareBand positioning

CareBand may provide a portable policy and identity layer that follows the client across the home-care journey and determines what information a particular worker, clinician, family member or emergency responder may access at that moment.

Illustrative home-care workflow

  1. 1

    Worker attends the client's home.

  2. 2

    Client identity is confirmed through an authorised token, application or wearable.

  3. 3

    Worker credentials and assignment are validated.

  4. 4

    Purpose is identified: personal care, medication assistance, mobility support, meal preparation, clinical care or emergency response.

  5. 5

    CareBand determines the relevant care category.

  6. 6

    Only the required information is released.

  7. 7

    Access expires when the visit or purpose ends.

  8. 8

    The event is recorded.

Commercial relevance

Home care is one of the highest-priority commercial modules in this review: the platform is already deployed, the workforce is mobile and distributed, and information needs are strongly purpose-specific and time-bounded.
