Project Description
We are working with SVEE Home and we geared this dispenser for a group home situation. SVEE Home is a group home that encourages an independent lifestyle for mildly handicap individuals. We have met with our clients and they have introduced us to the environment that the residents of the house live in. The residents live in an ordinary town home situation with their own bedrooms and bathrooms. Most town homes have three to four residents with one or two caretakers around at all times. The primary goal of our medicine dispenser is to remind the residents to take pills without having to personally administering each dose. This dispenser allows the staff to monitor doses for the safety of the residents but simultaneously allowing the residents to assume responsibilities in their life. The more responsibility that the residents feel they have the more they feel like they are no different then you or me.
