Alvolution, the division of MedilinkWM dedicated to stimulating
the assisted living sector of the healthcare market, has expanded
its Birmingham-based team with the hire of Joanne Perry as
Demonstrator Business Development Manager.
In the role, Joanne will be responsible for managing the
Alvolution Demonstrator House in West Bromwich, which is one of the
leading product demonstration facilities in its field, and which
elevates product showcasing in Assisted Living to a practical and
realistic environment.
Working alongside Alvolution Manager Rob Chesters and
Collaboration Manager, Alison Mlot, Joanne's role also involves the
development of the Alvolution 'Telehealth Menu', a web-based
product directory currently in development by MedilinkWM in
partnership with the West Midlands Strategic Health Authority. This
on-line demonstration service assists commissioners in health and
social care with the selection of Telehealth technologies and is a
gateway for them to identify technological devices and provides
instant access and unbiased information on the full range of
technological products developed for assisted living.
Joanne, who lives in Streetly, Sutton Coldfield, was previously
a Manager with a leading Birmingham recruitment firm, where she
worked for more than ten years, with a range of public sector, NHS,
private sector and further and higher education clients.
Of her new role with Alvolution, she says: "Alvolution is
recognised as the foremost demonstrator of technology for the
assisted living sector, and is committed to stimulating the next
stage in the evolution of technological advances for home-based
intelligent healthcare, which is designed to support independent
living for those living with long-term health conditions and the
elderly, at a time when the UK's aging population continues to
rise.
"The Alvolution Demonstrator House illustrates the potential for
integrated building intelligence support care in the home and
showcases technology which can be procured to support home-based
healthcare.
"The role will involve managing tours of the house by end users
and commissioners alike, who by visiting the house can view first
hand and in-situ the products and sample technologies
displayed.
"Furthermore, the Alvolution Telehealth Menu is soon to be
rolled-out, and I will work closely with the Alvolution team on
delivering technology training on its features and benefits to
Primary Care Trusts and Local Authorities across the region and the
UK."
