COMPUTER-AUTOMATED SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ASSESSING THE ORIENTATION, AWARENESS AND RESPONSES OF A PERSON WITH REDUCED CAPACITY

摘要

A system and method for scheduling, and reminding people receiving care (PRC) about upcoming events uses a remote computer-based interface (3) that allows a Caregiver at a remote location (3) to schedule the events for the PRC. The PRC has in their residence (or other location) a device (1) that prompts the PRC, by an audio (23) and/or video prompt (25), so as to "nudge" the PRC, asking whether they intend to participate in a pre-scheduled event. A man-machine interface (19), such as a two input keypad containing one button labeled "yes" and another button labeled "no", the remote Caregiver is able to monitor the responses of the electronic "nudges" offered by the system to the PRC. In turn, the device (3) used by the remote Caregiver accumulates the responses and creates a history of the level of activity the person has indicated in which they wish to participate.
