West Lothian's Integration Joint Board (IJB) is looking for views to help shape the future delivery of local adult health, social work, and social care services.

Ethel Care

Simple to use tablet to stay in touch with loved ones and stick to a routine.

Ethel is an innovative touchscreen tablet that allows families and carers to stay in touch with their loved ones, via use of an 'always-on', large (16 inch) touchscreen tablet. The tablet has a simple to use interface that allows an older person or a person living with disabilities to contact a pre-set list of contacts like family members, a carer or doctor simply by tapping the screen. 

Benefits:

  • Designed for those unfamiliar with technology 
  • Provides medication reminders 
  • Prompts for excercise 
  • Can alert family or carers if medication prompts are ignored 
  • Reduces social isolation
