James Purdy's Company Details
We empower the most underserved stakeholder in the healthcare system – the family caregiver. While training programs exist for home health aides or nurses to help manage care of the elderly, family members, who provide 80%+ of care to loved ones aging-in-place, have limited access to training. For example, actionable education like how to prevent falls in the house, safely transfer from a bed or chair, or manage difficult behaviour when a loved one has dementia. Recognizing that this content exists but isn't available to families, Trualta adapted professional-level healthcare training for the family member audience. We deliver the training via an informal and interactive online learning environment, and tailor the learning to each caregiver's situation. The program incentivizes engagement with a rewards system, and users can redeem rewards for helpful products and services. Our customers, healthcare payers and providers in Canada & the US, offer Trualta at point-of-care to better enable families to transition aging loved ones from hospital to home, and sustain independent living. Through clinical validation studies in the US and Canada, we are linking participation in Trualta's program to improved outcomes and reduced costs. We are a proud resident company of the Biomedical Zone in downtown Toronto and the Invest Ottawa Accelerator program. If you are passionate about educating and enabling families to improve care for our aging population, drop us a note at info@trualta.com – we'd love to hear from you.
