If a relative were placed in a long-term healthcare facility tomorrow, we would all love to be able to communicate frequently with them over the web, wouldn’t we? In many places, we simply cannot. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over eight million people receive some form of long-term care annually. Whether at a nursing home, adult service center, or mental health institution, long-term care has great importance in our society. Yet these facilities mostly operate using dated technology and software. We built CareLine to bridge that communication gap between families, patients, and caretakers. CareLine provides an innovative solution that features a mobile friendly site, built-in office appointment-making, text and video chat, and email notifications with automated updates as a means to ease the anxiety that comes with long-term care. CareLine is a sleek and modern web application that features a built-in calendar for office appointments, text and video chat, and email notifications with automated
updates. It has a TypeScript front end with a NodeJS and Fastify back end and a Microsoft SQL Server database. Our app is HIPAA compliant and secured with modern authentication tools. CareLine is designed to increase the amount of communication between not only the family and their relatives in long-term care situations, but also the family and the facility's caretakers. There is a myriad of concerns that come along with these scenarios, which our app aims to ease. While we do not provide the care ourselves, we offer a platform to give families a direct line. CareLine is your line to care, right away
