Halora

Most of the people who look out for someone never speak to each other. A neighbour notices the curtains are still closed. A carer notices she was slower on the stairs. A daughter two hours away notices she sounded tired on the phone. Each of them decides it was probably nothing, because on its own it was. Halora is where those sentences go. HOW IT WORKS Everyone who visits leaves a short note about how the person seemed. Speak it or type it, in the hallway, in under a minute. Nobody is asked to score anyone or fill in a form. Halora reads those notes together. When two people mention the same thing without knowing the other did, it says so, and asks the people who would know whether it is normal. Nothing is escalated automatically and nothing is passed to anyone who was not already there. A weatherproof marker by the front door means a visiting carer does not have to know whose record it is first. They scan it, say what they noticed, and go. WHO SEES WHAT Access is set per person by whoever coordinates the circle. A neighbour can be given nothing but a way to leave a message. Family see what the person has chosen to share. A district nurse sees the full picture. The person being looked after can be given sight of their own record, and can be given the right to remove things written about them. Every read is recorded, so the question "who has seen this?" always has an answer. Halora is made by Actualised Living Limited.
