Reaching individuals with information designed to help with anxiety and depression can be difficult, especially when they’re in rural areas. Consistent, fast internet is still not available in many of these areas, so text-messaging outreach is highly preferred (about 95% of US residents have a cell phone with text capabilities). 

That’s exactly the type of program Assistant Professor Douglas Knutson, PhD and his researchers in the Counseling and Counseling Psychology Program at Oklahoma State University (OSU) began piloting last year. The program provides transgender and nonbinary individuals with an affirmative cognitive-behavioral intervention for anxiety and depression. Creating interventions that can be delivered electronically, but still contain a human touch and are responsive to client needs is challenging, according to Dr. Knutson. 

The first iteration of his program used Google Voice for text messaging and was highly manual, involving multiple Excel spreadsheets to track participants and their progress within the program (referred to as a “protocol” by researchers). The system was far from ideal. Fielding text messages from multiple individuals simultaneously on days the program was open to participants was stressful. Automating messages for participants or potential enrollees to receive after hours was awkward at best. Program management was also difficult, with pertinent information scattered across multiple data sources. 

The final straw came when Google Voice began setting limits on how many text messages program researchers could send in a row without a response before being labeled us spam. (The program involves sending multiple informative texts back-to-back at times.) Dr. Knutson began looking for other solutions, finding a few but only one that had all of the features he sought. “I found the folks at Rhinogram to be incredibly responsive and engaging,” says Knutson. “I was further hooked by the fact that the product has a really engaging interface that met our needs all in one place, instead of having to cobble together all those spreadsheets and platforms.”

Infection Prevention & Control

Prevent infections and stop the spread with non-intrusive screening and automated protocol adherence.

Healthcare-associated infections pose a risk to any care environment. The care.ai Platform effectively reduces that risk by using AI-powered sensors to screen those who enter the facility and also ensures safety protocols are followed.

Increase Confidence

Gives patients and staff the peace-of-mind knowing the most advanced technology is deployed to keep the facility safe.

Reduce Costs

Mitigates the need to use costly human resources for tasks better suited to autonomous solutions.

Improve Processes

Provides real-time insights from continuous monitoring to ensure proper protocol is always being followed.

Simplify Compliance and Reporting

Provides a unified view from the IPC Command Center Module making it easier to generate compliance reports while saving time from manually searching and compiling data.

Smart Entry - Symptom Attestation and Vaccine Compliance

Protect your facility from infectious disease with contact-free entry screening and check-in. The care.ai Smart Entry™ solution screens every person who enters for skin temperatures, symptoms and vaccine compliance.

Intelligent Sensors Track and Trace Everyone Inside The Facility

By deploying multiple intelligent sensors throughout the facility, care.ai can track and trace everyone inside the facility. If an infectious disease exposure occurs, everyone who has been exposed can be quickly identified and notified.

Smart Spaces - Ensure IPC Protocol Adherence

care.ai autonomously monitors patient rooms and common areas for safety protocols such as hand hygiene, PPE efficacy and sanitization compliance. Care team members receive real-time feedback, and non-adherent behavior is documented.
