The partnership includes the launch of the Health Band, a joint wearable innovation that makes accurate and constant skin temperature measurements to detect changes and provide instant alerts by glowing if elevated readings are detected.
CareSpace (formally RISEcx) is turning to leading technology solutions provider Avnet to accelerate its IoT deployment by joining the Avnet IoTConnect Partner Program, a part of Avnet’s IoTConnect Solutions Suite. Through Avnet’s Partner Program, CareSpace will have increased capacity to build complete IoT digital health solutions and scale them in a quick and cost-effective manner.
The CareSpace Solution includes the following suite of offerings:
- CareSpace Cloud: integrates into IoTConnect to provide an ecosystem of tools and services, including the CareSpace virtual assistant platform for all digital touch points, including home devices and services, telemedicine, mobile tools, wearables, and other emerging digital health technologies under one simple and unified digital experience.
- The CareSpace Health Band: A wristband with accurate and constant measurements of skin temperature to detect changes and provides instant alerts by glowing if elevated readings are detected. Companies are able to deploy and monitor employees through a simple remote monitoring platform and connected app that protects the security and privacy of their employees.
- CareSpace Software Developer Kit (SDK) for Partners:CareSpace offers a robust SDK for partners and enterprise customers to integrate and support the Health Band from their own third-party apps and platform. The CareSpace SDK facilitates the core monitoring activities for the Health Band without compromising the security and privacy of users.
As a COVID-19 essential business, the CareSpace Connected Care Platform is a launch pad for the foundation of care that’s both reliable and scalable.
Using Avnet’s Microsoft Azure-powered IoTConnect platform, CareSpace customers will have the ability to seamlessly connect devices and address both the software and hardware needs of their IoT health solution.
When asked why CareSpace chose to partner with Avnet, David Richards, Co-Founder and CEO stated: “The COVID-19 crisis has left hospitals overloaded, companies unsure of how to protect their employees and whole nations locking their doors. Wearable and connected devices offer the value to remotely support patients and health consumers. However, wearables are limited because they do not prescribe programs that tell patients what to do with the data. This lack of follow-through leads users to abandon their wearable. Our participation in the Avnet IoTConnect Partner Program represents a new expansive ecosystem for the CareSpace platform to deliver automated and frictionless programs of care beyond the walls of a hospital.”
Through the CareSpace Cloud built on Avnet’s IoT Connect, Avnet’s Partner Program is utilized to enable digital health system integrators (SIs) and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to build new solutions and service models. Carespace partners have access to plug and play controls to enhance their digital and physical health solutions and take advantage of easier proof-of-concept deployment. As a participant in the Partner Program, CareSpace leverages proven applications in combination with Avnet’s extensive ecosystem of experts to accelerate and scale Smart Applications and IoT solution development.
“Through Avnet’s Partner Program, CareSpace will be able to quickly accelerate and scale a reliable and secure IoT solution for their Health Band product,” said Pete Bartolotta, president of Business Transformation, Avnet. “By utilizing Avnet’s IoT Connect Solutions Suite, CareSpace can capture the full value of IoT data and efficiently create new business opportunities for their customers and end users.”
