As a visionary leader of home care, Great Lakes Caring embraces new technology. We know it plays an essential role in providing superior quality health care to our patients. We also educate our health care professionals on and supply them with the best health care equipment available to assure they are able to deliver such an unparalleled level of care.
We equip our clinical care team with mobile devices to instantly access patients’ electronic medical records and update their plans of care. We also provide mobile PT/INR machines to our nurses, allowing them to obtain accurate readings of patients’ blood without having to wait for lab results. Not to mention the one-of-a-kind company NURSECAR℠ we provide to many of our direct care team members who travel to visit our patients in their homes and facilities every day.
At Great Lakes Caring, we use a number of devices to specifically treat the many different conditions that affect our patients. For those struggling with the effects of neuropathy, we utilize the Anodyne® infrared therapy system, while our versatile Solaris® therapy system is the perfect modality for those patients who have pain in different areas. We also offer the region’s first portable sequential compression device—known as DVTCare™—which helps prevent blood clots from forming in the legs of our immobile patients outside the hospital, as well as the only FDA-accepted electrical stimulation treatment for patients who have trouble swallowing called VitalStim®. It is devices like these, and others, which help keep Great Lakes Caring ahead of the competition in providing superior quality home care.
