FROM ITS PARTNERSHIP WITH KU-ABS, GOODLIFE UNIVERSITY WAS CREATED TO BUILD THE CAPACITY, STABILITY, AND QUALITY OF THE DIRECT SUPPORT PROFESSIONAL (DSP) WORKFORCE FOR COMMUNITY SERVICES PROVIDERS NATIONWIDE. (MORE ON GOODLIFE UNIVERSITY HAS BEEN PROVIDED IN THE NEXT SECTION.)GOODLIFE SERVED LEAD ROLES IN CLOSING SIX (6) INSTITUTIONS, INCLUDING NORTON STATE HOSPITAL, PIONEER VILLAGE, AND WINFIELD STATE HOSPITAL IN KANSAS; CLOVER BOTTOM AND ARLINGTON DEVELOPMENTAL CENTERS IN CENTRAL AND WEST TENNESSEE; AND (AT THE REQUEST OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA) AGNEWS DEVELOPMENTAL CENTER IN SAN JOSE.TO ACCOMPLISH THESE CLOSURES--AND EFFECTIVELY SERVE INDIVIDUALS WITH SIGNIFICANT AND SEVERE INTELLECTUAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES (I/DD) IN THE COMMUNITY--GOODLIFE DEVELOPED AND IMPLEMENTED CUTTING EDGE SERVICE MODELS. GOODLIFE AND ITS PARTNERS INCORPORATED THESE MODELS INTO EXISTING, NON-PROFIT COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, OR THE GOODLIFE TEAM WOULD BUILD NEW PROVIDER ORGANIZATIONS FROM THE GROUND UP.AS A RESULT OF THIS WORK, GOODLIFE BUILT A STRONG BEHAVIORAL, HEALTH, HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, AND WORKFORCE INFRASTRUCTURE BENEFITING PEOPLE WITH SIGNIFICANT AND COMPLEX HEALTH AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS IN THE HEARTLAND. THIS INFRASTRUCTURE IS A TOOL, BUT IT ALSO FUELS A CONSTANT STREAM OF VERY CHALLENGING REFERRALS TO GOODLIFE OF PERSONS WITH I/DD AND COMPLEX, CHALLENGING BEHAVIOR.NOW, GOODLIFE PROVIDES OVER $36M OF I/DD SERVICES ANNUALLY IN KANSAS AND ARKANSAS, WHERE IT DEVELOPS AND DEMONSTRATES EVOLVING SERVICE MODELS (THAT ARE INTEGRATED WITH ILINK) AND ORGANIZATIONAL PRACTICES IN COLLABORATION WITH ITS PARTNERS. GOODLIFE'S TEAM OFFERS EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE IMPLEMENTING COST-EFFECTIVE, PRACTICAL, AND PROACTIVE TIERED MODELS OF BEHAVIORAL SUPPORT. THIS INCLUDES COMPREHENSIVE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH TRAINING PROGRAMS THAT BUILD THE CAPACITY OF COMMUNITY SERVICES PROVIDERS TO PREVENT, DE-ESCALATE, AND MANAGE PERSONS WITH COMPLEX BEHAVIORAL CHALLENGES IN INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY HOMES AND SETTINGS.GOODLIFE HAS MORE THAN 300 EMPLOYEES AND 100 SHARED LIVING CONTRACTORS, SUPPORTING APPROXIMATELY 500 INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES IN KANSAS AND ARKANSAS. SEE SCHEDULE OGOODLIFE UNIVERSITY:GOODLIFE UNIVERSITY EXISTS BECAUSE "THE WAY WE'VE ALWAYS DONE IT" ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH--WE CAN DO BETTER.GOODLIFE UNIVERSITY WAS BUILT OUT OF THE NEARLY HALF-CENTURY-LONG RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GOODLIFE INNOVATIONS AND THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE (KU-ABS). IN SIMPLEST TERMS, THIS PARTNERSHIP DELIVERS A WIN-WIN TO BOTH ORGANIZATIONS: GOODLIFE BENEFITS BY RECEIVING DEDICATED TALENT FROM KU-ABS GRADUATE STUDENTS THAT CONDUCT EXTERNAL QUALITY ASSURANCE EVALUATIONS FOR GOODLIFE'S SERVICE MODELS AND PROGRAMS, AND KU-ABS GRADUATE STUDENTS BENEFIT BY RECEIVING DIRECT, PRACTICUM EXPERIENCE WITH ADULTS WHO HAVE SIGNIFICANT INTELLECTUAL OR DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES (I/DD). TO THIS END, GOODLIFE'S PARTNERSHIP WITH KU-ABS GRANTS VERY AFFORDABLE, IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY BEHAVIORAL SUPPORTS. HOWEVER, THE RELATIONSHIP GOES MUCH DEEPER THAN THIS THANKS TO OUR ROBUST AND INTERTWINED HISTORY.FROM THE MOMENT GOODLIFE WAS IMAGINED, FACULTY AND THOUGHT-LEADERS FROM KU-ABS WERE INCLUDED IN THE CONVERSATION TO HELP ANSWER THE QUESTION, "WHAT DOES A GOOD LIFE LOOK LIKE FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH I/DD?" INSTITUTIONS AND FACILITY-BASED CARE MODELS WERE FALLING OUT OF FAVOR AND THE NATION WAS LOOKING FOR PROVEN, COMMUNITY-BASED SOLUTIONS. KU-ABS HAS A STORIED HISTORY, FULL OF INCREDIBLE TALENT AND MEANINGFUL ACCOMPLISHMENTS. THEY ARE KNOWN FOR THEIR WORK IN CREATING MODELS AND SERVICES USED NATIONALLY (E.G. BOYS TOWN) AND FOR SUPPORTING MORE THAN 15K AGENCIES NATIONWIDE THAT SERVE POPULATIONS WITH CHALLENGING BEHAVIORS. KU-ABS ALSO CREATED AND DISSEMINATED THE COMMUNITY TOOL BOX, CONTRIBUTED TO THE CREATION OF THE SESAME STREET CURRICULUM, AND FOUNDED THE FIELD'S PREMIER RESEARCH JOURNAL, THE JOURNAL OF APPLIED BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS. ITS ALUMNI HAVE HELD LEADERSHIP ROLES IN OUR NATION'S MOST PRESTIGIOUS BEHAVIORAL PROGRAMS, AND WERE TEACHERS, ADVISORS, AND MENTORS TO MANY GOODLIFE ALUM. COMMITTED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROGRAMS AND SERVICES FOR ADULTS WITH COMPLEX CARE NEEDS, KU-ABS FACULTY JOINED THE FAMILIES, GUARDIANS, AND ADVOCATES OF KANSANS WITH SIGNIFICANT I/DD IN A TREMENDOUS GRASSROOTS EFFORT TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF CARE.NOW, NEARLY 50 YEARS LATER, GOODLIFE UNIVERSITY IS A THOUGHT-LEADING INNOVATION ENGINE THAT CREATES AND DELIVERS THE NEXT GENERATION OF BEST-PRACTICE COMMUNITY SUPPORT FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED EFFECTIVE, AFFORDABLE HELP TO LIVE ENRICHED, INDEPENDENT, AND EMPOWERED LIVES OF PURPOSE. GOODLIFE UNIVERSITY HELPS HOME AND COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICE PROVIDERS, STATES, AND MANAGED CARE ORGANIZATIONS:1. MEANINGFULLY IMPROVE THE CAPACITY, STABILITY, AND QUALITY OF OUR NATION'S DIRECT SUPPORT WORKFORCE. (THIS INCLUDES INITIATIVES TO IMPROVE DSP STABILITY, TRAINING, SUPPORT, PAY, AND BENEFITS WITHIN CURRENTLY BUDGETED RESOURCES.)2. BUILD AND WIDELY DISSEMINATE TECHNOLOGY-LEVERAGED SERVICE APPROACHES THAT EMPOWER PEOPLE TO AFFORDABLY RECEIVE THE RIGHT SUPPORT WHEN AND WHERE NEEDED TO LIVE THEIR VERSION OF A GOOD LIFE. (THIS INCLUDES STRATEGIES FOR HELPING AGENCIES MIGRATE THEIR SERVICE APPROACHES TO BE LEVERAGED BY ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES.)3. CREATE DEEP STRATEGIC PROVIDER, SERVICE, AND FUNDING PARTNERSHIPS THAT CO-OP AND SCALE TALENT, INCREASE AND LEVERAGE RESOURCES, AND FOCUS THIS COLLECTIVE STRATEGY AND INFLUENCE TO ADVANCE GOODLIFE'S CHARITABLE MISSION.GOODLIFE UNIVERSITY'S CONTRIBUTIONS INCLUDE OUR WORKFORCE CAPACITY SOLUTIONS, EDUCATION AND TRAINING SERVICES, SERVICE MODEL DEMONSTRATIONS (E.G. NEIGHBORHOOD NETWORK AND PROFESSIONAL FAMILY [SHARED LIVING]), BEHAVIORAL SERVICES, AND DISSEMINATION OF ILINK TECHNOLOGIES.GOODLIFE UNIVERSITY PRODUCES VIDEO BLOGS, CONDUCTS AND PUBLISHES APPLIED RESEARCH, AND FREELY SHARES ITS IMPACT/OUTCOMES WITH COMMUNITY-BASED PROVIDERS ONLINE AND AT REGIONAL AND NATIONAL CONFERENCES IN ORDER TO INSPIRE A CULTURE OF CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT.

SINCE 1999, GOODLIFE HAS BEEN DEVELOPING ILINK TECHNOLOGIES AND IS EMPOWERING AGING ADULTS AND INDIVIDUALS WITH INTELLECTUAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES (I/DD) TO LIVE AS INDEPENDENTLY AS POSSIBLE BY COMBINING SMART HOME HARDWARE AND ILINK'S PROPRIETARY CLOUD SOFTWARE WITH INTUITIVE SUPPORT SYSTEMS. THE US HAS A GROWING NUMBER OF SENIORS (10K TURN 65 EVERY DAY), PEOPLE WITH I/DD, TRAUMATIC HEAD INJURIES, PHYSICAL DISABILITIES, MENTAL HEALTH CHALLENGES, OR DEGENERATIVE CONDITIONS (LIKE MS) EXPERIENCE BARRIERS TO LIVING INDEPENDENT, HEALTHY, AND FULFILLING LIVES IN THEIR OWN HOMES. MANY CANNOT ACCESS OR AFFORD THE IN-HOME SUPPORT THEY NEED TO OVERCOME THESE BARRIERS BECAUSE THEIR NEEDS ARE INTERMITTENT AND/OR UNPREDICTABLE. SADLY, TOO MANY ARE HAVING TO TRADE 15% NEED FOR 100% CARE--THIS IS NOT AFFORDABLE, PRACTICAL, OR SUSTAINABLE. ALSO, THE DIRECT CARE WORKFORCE HAS BEEN IN CRISIS FOR DECADES DUE TO: -HIGH TURNOVER (75% TO 100% ANNUALLY) -HIGH CALL-OFFS (15% TO 20% OF SCHEDULED SHIFTS) -VIRTUALLY A NON-EXISTENT PIPELINE OF NEW STAFF -CHRONIC SHIFT OPENINGS -HARD-TO-FILL SCHEDULES -DIRECT SUPPORT PROFESSIONALS (DSPS) WORKING ALONE WITHOUT SUPERVISION -LOW PAY -LACK OF EFFECTIVE TRAINING -INCREASINGLY CHALLENGING POPULATIONS OF NEED (E.G. MEDICALLY FRAGILE, COMPLEX BEHAVIORAL NEEDS AND/OR CO-OCCURRING MENTAL HEALTH DIAGNOSES) -HIGH RELIANCE ON PART-TIME AND SUBSTITUTE STAFFING POOLS (OVER 30% OF ALL POSITIONS) -AN INCREASE IN JOBS THAT OFFER BETTER PAY AND WORKING CONDITIONS (AFTER COVID, THERE HAVE BEEN DRAMATIC INCREASES IN REMOTE WORK OPPORTUNITIES THAT OFFERED MORE WORK/LIFE BALANCE). SENIORS, PERSONS WITH I/DD, AND OTHER POPULATIONS WANT TO LIVE TYPICAL LIVES, AS INDEPENDENTLY AS POSSIBLE, IN THE COMMUNITY AND NEED IN-HOME AND IN-COMMUNITY SUPPORT. FEDERAL/STATE POLICY AND SHIFTS IN FUNDING REINFORCE THIS VISION. UNFORTUNATELY, TRADITIONAL "IN-HOME CARE" APPROACHES ARE NOT AFFORDABLE OR VIABLE SOLUTIONS FOR SUPPORTING MOST PEOPLE WHO NEED CARE IN THEIR HOMES BECAUSE: 1. CARE NEEDS ARE IN TERMITTENT AND UNPREDICTABLE. 2. HOME CARE RATIOS ARE HIGH (TYPICALLY ONE-ON-ONE), AND WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH CAREGIVERS OR MONEY TO DELIVER THEM. 3. IN-HOME CAREGIVERS WORK ALONE, YET THEY OFTEN NEED HELP, SUPPORT/RELIEF, AND SUPERVISION, BUT THERE ISN'T AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO GIVE IT. THIS IS EVEN MORE CONCERNING FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE COMPLEX BEHAVIORAL/HEALTH NEEDS. WE ALL STRIVE FOR A GOOD LIFE: A NICE HOME IN A SAFE NEIGHBORHOOD, AN ACTIVE AND HEALTHY LIFESTYLE WITH INTERESTING THINGS TO DO, A CLOSE CIRCLE OF FRIENDS, A SENSE OF PURPOSE, EMPOWERMENT, AND CONTROL. UNFORTUNATELY, FAR TOO MANY PEOPLE WITH INTELLECTUAL, DEVELOPMENTAL, AND AGE-RELATED DISABILITIES HAVE BEEN FORCED TO TRADE THE LIFESTYLES THEY WANT FOR THE CARE AND SUPPORT THEY NEED BECAUSE CARE MODELS AREN'T DESIGNED TO PROVIDE BOTH. WE NEED A MORE EFFECTIVE WAY TO SUSTAINABLY DELIVER AFFORDABLE, SAFE, AND DEPENDABLE IN-HOME CARE THAT ENRICHES THE LIVES OF PEOPLE WITH COMPLEX NEEDS. WE FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY WILL BE USED TO EMPOWER THE NEXT GENERATION OF CARE. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4C, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS (CONTINUED): OVER THE LAST 25 YEARS, GOODLIFE HAS WORKED WITH TALENTED FACULTY AND DOCTORAL STUDENTS FROM KU/ABS, TO DEVELOP NEXT GENERATION SERVICE MODELS FUELED BY AN INTEGRATED INFRASTRUCTURE OF INTELLIGENT ILINK TECHNOLOGIES. THESE TECHNOLOGY-ENABLED SERVICE APPROACHES ARE REDEFINING WHAT'S POSSIBLE FOR DELIVERING A GOOD LIFE TO INDIVIDUALS IN SMALL HOMES AND COMMUNITY SETTINGS, WHILE ADVANCING INDEPENDENCE, PERSON-CENTERED LIFESTYLES, SAFETY, SELF-DIRECTION, AND PRIVACY/INTRUSION. GOODLIFE'S STRATEGIES INCLUDE USING DSPS AND NATURAL CAREGIVERS EMPOWERED TO RAPIDLY DELIVER CARE THAT EBBS AND FLOWS ORGANICALLY AROUND NEEDS. ILINK CAN PROVIDE 24-7 VIRTUAL IN-HOME SUPPORT, AND REAL-TIME ACCESS TO PROFESSIONAL/CLINICAL SERVICES, ENABLING ON-DEMAND SUPPORT AND SERVICES THAT ARE NEEDED TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE. IMAGINE SEAMLESS, REAL-TIME ASSISTANCE AT THE TOUCH OF A BUTTON. ILINK INTELLIGENTLY MONITORS FOR POTENTIAL RISKS AND ALERTS TRUSTED CAREGIVERS PROMPTLY SO THE RIGHT CARE IS DELIVERED AT THE RIGHT TIME AND PLACE. BUT IT'S MORE THAN JUST TECHNOLOGY: ILINK WAS DESIGNED TO BE INTEGRATED INTO HUMAN SERVICE MODELS TO ENHANCE GREATER INDEPENDENCE, DIGNITY, CHOICE, SELF-DIRECTION, INCLUSION, SAFETY, AND PRIVACY. WHAT IS ILINK TECHNOLOGIES? ILINK TECHNOLOGIES IS A COMPREHENSIVE TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGNED TO HELP COMMUNITY SERVICE PROVIDERS DELIVER HIGH-QUALITY, NEXT GENERATION CARE. ILINK IS A COMBINATION OF SMART HOME TECHNOLOGIES, INTELLIGENT SOFTWARE (ILINK ASSIST), AND REMOTE SUPPORT SYSTEMS THAT ARE SEAMLESSLY INTEGRATED TO CONNECT INDIVIDUALS, HOMES, AND NEIGHBORHOODS TO THE RESOURCES AND SUPPORT PROVIDED BY HCBS AGENCIES. ILINK'S VIRTUAL STAFFING SYSTEMS CAN OPTIONALLY INCLUDE ADVANCED, SELF-DIRECTED CAMERAS WHICH ALLOW FOR AN INFINITE RANGE OF PRIVACY CONTROLS. WHERE APPROPRIATE, ILINK CAN ENABLE REMOTE CAREGIVERS TO SEE, HEAR, FEEL, COMMUNICATE AND ACT. ILINK HOME INSTALLS ARE FULLY WIRELESS, ATTRACTIVE, AND INSTALLED IN ONLY A FEW HOURS. ONCE INSTALLED, ILINK RESIDENTS ARE ABLE TO BALANCE PRIVACY WITH SUPPORT AND SAFETY, AVOIDING CONGREGATE CARE AND LIVING MORE AFFORDABLY WITH GREATER INDEPENDENCE. WITH AN INFRASTRUCTURE POWERED BY ILINK TECHNOLOGIES, COMMUNITY PROVIDERS CAN REMOTELY MONITOR SAFETY, BEHAVIORAL, AND HEALTH NEEDS; PROVIDE LIFE-COACHING TO SUPPORT INDEPENDENT LIVING; DEPLOY, SUPERVISE, AND SUPPORT IN-HOME CAREGIVERS; CONTROL HOME AUTOMATIONS; AND REMOTELY DELIVER PROFESSIONAL SERVICES (SUCH AS BEHAVIORAL/ HEALTH/ TRAINING SUPPORT) ON DEMAND. ILINK IS SMART, EASY TO USE, AND ALLOWS PROVIDERS TO DELIVER THE RIGHT CARE, WITH A HUMAN TOUCH, AT THE RIGHT TIME. ILINK ALLOWS PROVIDERS TO REINVISION HOW THEY DELIVER SERVICES--CULTIVATING NEW AND AFFORDABLE HUMAN SUPPORT MODELS THAT HELP THOSE WITH A WIDE RANGE OF NEEDS LIVE BETTER, SAFER, MORE PRIVATE LIVES IN SMALLER, MORE INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY SETTINGS. ILINK ASSIST: ILINK ASSIST 3.0 IS ILINK'S INTELLIGENT, CLOUD-BASED SOFTWARE. ITS CUSTOMIZABLE LOGIC FILTERS OUT CUSTOMER-DEFINED EVENTS THAT DO-NOT REQUIRE SUPPORT, AND ALERTS REMOTE SUPPORT PROFESSIONALS TO CHECK ON THE NEEDS THAT DO ARISE. ILINK ASSIST ADVANCES PRIVACY BY LIMITING UNNECESSARY INTRUSIONS AND IMPROVING ONE'S ACCESS TO THEIR CAREGIVING PROFESSIONALS. ILINK'S IN-HOME SENSORS, OPTIONAL CAMERAS, INTERCOMS, HELP PENDANTS, AND REMOTE CONTROLLED HOME AUTOMATIONS ARE ALL INTEGRATED WITH ILINK ASSIST. THE RESULT? HERE ARE A COUPLE OF USE-CASE EXAMPLES: 1. ILINK ASSIST CAN ALERT REMOTE CAREGIVERS WHEN TERRY'S STOVE IS ON BUT NO ONE IS IN THE KITCHEN. IT WILL ALSO SEND A NOTIFICATION WHEN THE STOVE IS TURNED ON, ALLOWING THE REMOTE SUPPORT COACH TO KEEP AN EYE ON COOKING AT A LOCATION AND PROVIDE SUPPORT IF NEEDED. IF ANY OF THESE SCENARIOS REQUIRE IMMEDIATE INTERVENTION, CAREGIVERS CAN REMOTELY TURN THE STOVE OFF AND DEPLOY STAFF. 2. WHEN SAM GETS UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TO USE THE BATHROOM AND THEN RETURNS TO BED IN A TIMELY MANNER, THIS TYPICAL BEHAVIOR WON'T CAUSE AN ALERT; HOWEVER, IF SAM GETS UP AND GOES TOWARD THE FRONT DOOR INSTEAD, OR GOES TO THE BATHROOM BUT DOESN'T RETURN TO BED WITHIN A SPECIFIED TIME, THEN ILINK ASSIST WILL ALERT REMOTE CAREGIVERS WHO CAN PROVIDE VIRTUAL AND/OR DIRECT SUPPORT. 3. A REMINDER CAN BE SENT VIA THE INTERCOM WHEN IT'S TIME FOR SALLY TO TAKE HER MEDICATIONS. ILINK'S INTERCOM SYSTEM ALLOWS FOR THE DELIVERY OF RECURRING AND PERSONALIZED MESSAGES, HELPING INDIVIDUALS OR STAFF MEMBERS STAY ON SCHEDULE WITH IMPORTANT TASKS. 4. IF AN OVERNIGHT CAREGIVER FAILS TO ENTER A BEDROOM AND PROVIDE A BED-SIDE CHECK, AN ALERT CAN BE SENT TO REMOTE SUPERVISORS WHO CAN COMMUNICATE WITH THE STAFF TO COMPLETE THE TASK AND, WHEN NEEDED, PROVIDE STAFF TRAINING/COACHING ON DEMAND. BECAUSE ILINK ASSIST IS FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE, THE AUTOMATION AND ALERT PROTOCOLS CAN BE DESIGNED TO MEET THE SPECIFIC NEEDS AND ABILITIES OF THE RESIDENTS IN EACH HOME. ILINK DOES ALL THE HEAVY LIFTING TECHNOLOGICALLY SO PROVIDERS CAN FOCUS ON DELIVERING A VIRTUAL ECOSYSTEM OF SUPPORT TO ITS CUSTOMERS. ILINK IS PROTECTED BY SECURITY SOLUTIONS THROUGH AMAZON CLOUD SERVERS AS WELL AS TIER 4 DATA CENTERS WITH MULTIPLE REDUNDANCIES FOR BOTH POWER AND INTERNET. ALL OPTIONAL VIDEO DATA TRANSMISSIONS ARE ENCRYPTED END-TO-END AND ILINK PRIORITIZES HIPAA SECURITY, DATA PROTECTION, AND "UP-TIME." ILINK'S APPROACH TO CAMERAS AND PRIVACY: ILINK'S SYSTEM WORKS WELL EITHER WITH OR WITHOUT CAMERAS. HOWEVER, IF PROVIDERS WANT TO DELIVER VIRTUAL COACHING AND VIRTUAL STAFFING (FOR EXAMPLE, SUPPORTED COOKING, LIFE-COACHING, MEDICATION COMPLIANCE, OR TO OFFER SUPERVISION AND TRAINING FOR NEW IN-HOME DIRECT SUPPORT STAFF), ILINK'S CAMERAS PROVIDE BEST PRACTICE CARE WHILE OFFERING AN ENDLESS GRADIENT OF PRIVACY FEATURES. OUR ADVANCED CAMERAS CAN DELIVER CRYSTAL CLEAR OR PROGRESSIVELY BLURRED IMAGES, OR CAN BE TURNED OFF ENTIRELY. ANY BACKGROUND OR AREA WITHIN A ROOM CAN BE DIGITALLY-BLACKED OUT OR BLOCKED FROM VIEW. ILINK'S CAMERAS ALSO FUNCTION AS HIGHLY-SOPHISTICATED OPTIC SENSORS THAT CAN DETERMINE MOVEMENT DIRECTION, INDIVIDUAL PROXIMITY, AND EVEN BODY TEMPERATURE, WHICH HAS SIGNIFICANT ADVANTAGES FOR CARE. FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO CAN SELF-DIRECT SUPPORT, ILINK'S CAMERAS ARE CONTROLLED WITH A SINGLE PUSH OF A BUTTON. WHEN CAMERAS ARE ON, INDICATOR LIGHTS AROUND THE HOME CAN ALSO TURN ON TO SIGNAL TO PEOPLE IN THE HOME THAT CAMERAS ARE BEING USED. BECAUSE RELATIONSHIPS ARE PRIORITIZED, ILINK ALSO OFFERS SIMPLE WAYS TO LET RESIDENTS KNOW WHO VIRTUALLY IS HELPING THEM TODAY. PROVIDERS CAN OPTIONALLY CHOOSE TO TEMPORARILY BUFFER AND SAVE VIDEO AND/OR AUDIO DATA FOR A CUSTOMIZABLE PERIOD OF TIME BEFORE IT IS AUTOMATICALLY AND PERMANENTLY DELETED. ILINK'S CUSTOMIZABLE BUFFERING STRATEGY ALLOWS VIRTUAL SUPPORT PROFESSIONALS TO REVIEW CARE RETROSPECTIVELY FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME--ONLY WHEN NEEDED--IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND THE CAUSE OF AN ALERT OR TO REVIEW PAST EVENTS THAT MAY BE IMPORTANT. THIS OPTIONAL TECHNIQUE PROVIDES FOR BETTER AND SAFER CARE WHILE MAINTAINING AS MUCH PRIVACY AS POSSIBLE.
