Assess
Support care professionals
Howz turns activity at home into clear insight for care teams, so you can prioritise the people who need support most and make confident, evidence-based decisions.
The Howz care portal
One portal for your whole team
Use the care portal at care.howz.com to see all your service users and the current alert status of each home, with role based access for clinicians, carers and administrators.
Dashboard
Everyone you support, at a glance
A single view of every home, with a map, activity counts and occupancy statistics, so you can see where attention is needed most and compare sites side by side.
Routine
Learn what normal looks like
Heatmaps and dot plots show each person’s daily routine and how it changes over time. Compare any two periods to see exactly what has shifted.
Spot change as it happens
Machine learning developed with Lancaster University detects changepoints in activity, so gradual decline is found early rather than after a crisis.
Concerns
Night, bathroom and food, in focus
Dedicated views for night-time activity, bathroom use and food preparation flag meaningful change in the areas that matter most to wellbeing.
Plain English summaries
Plain-language insight on any chart
Generated summaries explain what a routine heatmap is showing in everyday words, with feedback built in so the explanations keep improving.
Alerts and daily emails
The right people, at the right time
Graded risk alerts let the right people step in based on individual need. Traffic light daily emails show who to review without logging in, and cohort reports highlight your highest risk individuals so you can mobilise your teams.
The Howz Assessment Report
Pattern of life data in plain English
Generated at the end of a short term assessment, the Assessment Report turns pattern of life data into plain English summaries covering sleep, movement, nutrition and bathroom use. Downloaded as an editable Word document for manual editing.
Kit management
Build, test and assign kits with ease
Prepare packs, scan device barcodes, test a kit before it ships and move hubs between homes, all from the portal.
Teams and access
Organisations, groups and permissions
Organise sites into groups, invite colleagues and set fine-grained control over who can see what, so each team sees only the people they support.
