Reducing NHS Strain with Digital Health Checks in Grantham and Newark

At Right at Home Grantham & Newark, we are committed to going above and beyond to support the well-being, independence, and physical health of our clients.

Introducing the Whzan Blue Box: Digital Health Checks at Home

We are pleased to introduce our new Whzan Blue Box Digital Health Check Service, which uses the NHS-approved NEWS2 (National Early Warning Score) system. This standardised health assessment, created by the Royal College of Physicians and routinely used within the NHS, is proven to help with:

  • 22% reduction in 999 ambulance requests

  • 35% reduction in unplanned GP visits

  • 50% reduction in 111 calls

Since 2011, Whzan has been revolutionising healthcare assessments, helping thousands across the UK reduce unnecessary hospital visits. Now, families in Grantham, Newark, and surrounding villages can benefit from this technology through our trusted homecare services.

What Does the Blue Box Monitor?

Blood Pressure Monitor – Helps track and manage heart health.
Pulse Oximeter – Measures oxygen levels in the blood.
Bluetooth Thermometer – Provides accurate temperature readings.

Why Is This Important?

With these digital health checks, our Care Assistants can monitor vital signs and detect early signs of potential health concerns before they become serious. All readings are securely logged in a “virtual ward,” where we can easily track trends and identify any changes in health. The system also generates a NEWS2 score within minutes, providing rapid insights without the stress of long wait times for results.

A Comprehensive Approach to Well-Being

The Whzan Blue Box health check service goes beyond basic monitoring. It can also assess respiration rate, consciousness levels, nutrition, hydration, and frailty. This comprehensive approach ensures that any potential health risks are identified early, allowing for timely follow-up and possible intervention.
