A unique system for providing supportive, not custodial, care
MyAmego® is unique in its approach to the provision of technology. Underpinning the system’s usage is adherence to the requirements of the Mental Capacity Act (Mental Incapacity Act, Scotland) and the principles of choice, rights and best interest of individual users. The emphasis for the technology’s usage is supporting individuals rather than providing custodial care.
Users of the system have found it useful in monitoring individual's wellbeing, spotting conditions - UTI, constipation, and depression; in managing and reducing medication; in working with other care professionals and in helping the relationship with relatives and families.
