Our Technology

 

The management of seniors and their housing and care requirements is a very important intensive exercise.  Benchmark Lifestyles has developed a tool called Careware that enables us to facilitate and streamline an efficient approach to managing both the housing and service requirements of our seniors.

 

With an extensive Information Technology background that has spanned decades, our team has developed and continued to improve Careware over the last 15+ years of Supportive and Assisted Living experience that today aides Benchmark in delivering consistent care and services to our residents.

 

Careware is a web-based portal that can be accessed from any web browser capable of 256-bit security encryption.  It allows the end-user the ability to completely manage a Supportive or Assisted Living Tenant from Admission to Discharge, including both prospective and waitlisted residents.

 

The following is a brief overview of how Careware works and the efficiencies and advantages it provides us in the delivery of services and care to seniors.
