AI-Powered Virtual Home Care Debuts at HIMSS 2025
Las Vegas, Sunday, 2 March 2025.
Electronic Caregiver and Samsung unveil Addison Care at HIMSS 2025, integrating AI for 24/7 health monitoring and support via Samsung’s Galaxy Watch7, enhancing senior living and caregiving solutions.
Global Healthcare Challenge and Market Need
The launch addresses a critical global healthcare challenge, with over 2.7 billion people worldwide living with multiple chronic conditions. In the United States alone, 42% of the population struggles with conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and respiratory disorders [1][4]. The timing is particularly crucial, as the healthcare system currently supports 55 million aging adults and 53 million family caregivers in the United States [4].
Innovative Features and Integration
Addison Care’s integration with Samsung’s Galaxy Watch7 introduces FDA-approved vitals monitoring within a secure hardware ecosystem [1]. The system provides comprehensive 24/7 care management at 8 per day, offering vital reminders, medication management, and emergency response services [2]. This innovative approach directly addresses the concerning statistic that 50% of care plan failures stem from missed medications and lifestyle adjustments [1][2].
Enhanced Safety and Monitoring
The platform features sophisticated monitoring capabilities, including a four-way emergency response system and noninvasive AI tracking of sleep and movement patterns [3]. In post-COVID-19 environments, the system demonstrates advanced capability in identifying early signs of infections, particularly crucial in communal living spaces [2]. The technology is managed by Addison’s 3D Virtual Caregiver and telecare team, seamlessly integrating with property staff and health providers [2].
Impact and Future Outlook
The technology was unveiled at HIMSS 2025, hosted at the Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, where Electronic Caregiver and Samsung showcased their collaborative innovation at Booth #2537 [4]. As stated by Anthony Dohrmann, CEO of Electronic Caregiver, Inc., ‘Addison Care, enhanced by Samsung, redefines Virtual Home Care with unmatched engagement and life-changing daily support’ [1]. The platform represents a significant advancement in addressing the growing demands of chronic condition management and aging population care [1][4].
