Remote Supports
Remote Supports
Remote Supports can provide you with greater independence by using technology to connect you with staff or a caregiver who is not physically with you. Remote Supports include a mix of technology and human support. The technology uses two-way communication so that the staff or caregiver can check on you, and you can request assistance without the need for the staff or caregiver to be with you all the time.
