BOCA RATON, Florida—FOREWARN, LLC, a red violet entity, a provider of data-driven safety solutions, is expanding into the home healthcare industry. The new offering, FOREWARN for Home Healthcare, equips home healthcare providers and agencies with pre-visit household insights. FOREWARN aims to help caregivers enter unfamiliar residences with greater awareness and give organizations a documented, proactive approach to workforce safety.
FOREWARN was built to give organizations real-time safety intelligence to help assess risk before a caregiver arrives at a patient's door. Professionals and organizations can instantly verify identity while also gaining insight into potential criminal history and sex offender status of possible household occupants.
For individuals, FOREWARN gives caregivers, schedulers and supervisors on-demand, pre-visit insights wherever they are via the mobile app and is also accessible via a web interface. For organizations seeking an integrated solution, an application programming interface connects FOREWARN's data directly into an agency's existing scheduling, electronic health record or workforce management system.
"Home healthcare workers deliver critical care in environments that are at times unpredictable or unsafe, often alone and without the visibility and safeguards that their colleagues in hospitals or other facilities take for granted," said James Reilly, red violet president. "Supporting caregiver safety isn't just the right thing to do, it's essential to protecting an organization's people, reputation and mission. Whether an agency needs a solution built for individual caregivers or one embedded across its workforce systems, our goal is to make sure no caregiver walks into a home unprepared."
