Smart Living
Smart Living incorporates enabling technology and remote support technology into our supported community living services. Introducing technology into our support model allows even greater autonomy and community inclusion. Support is individualized and focuses on finding technology solutions as the first means of support.
Using Technology for Better and Safer Living
Each of these devices is unintrusive; however, they have a life-changing effect on the people we serve, allowing for more independence, choice, and inclusion.

The Smart Living Process
Initial Conversations
Getting Basic Information
Let's sit down and discuss what Smart Living is and what it might mean for you and your loved one. You'll learn about the vast choices of assistive technology that can provide support, and we will tour you through our technology support office allowing you to see first-hand how individuals currently living in a Smart Living care model interact through technology. You will also go home with success stories and additional information about how the entire transition to a smart home unfolds.
Assessment Process
Getting to Know Each Other
Once you decide this is the right care model for you or loved one, the One Vision Smart Living team will begin their work. Since this care model is personalized to everyone, at this stage multiple assessments will occur. Assessments include an FAQ of Enabling Technology, a Time Study, and a Home Walkthrough. The assessments help the team make decisions for a successful transition and long-term Smart Living care model.
Decision Phase
Making the Best Decision
With the assessments compiled, the next phase is to make decisions based on the data, with the best interest of you and your loved one at the forefront. The One Vision Smart Living team will share the assessments and provide their professional recommendations and Smart Living plan for you or your loved one. The topics will include both natural and paid support, the risks and benefits, and the ideal enabling technology for you. Ultimately, this phase puts an individualized, technology-first plan to independence in motion.
Targeted Independence
Goals for Smart Living
Now that your decisions are made and the plan is in motion, the Smart Living team and natural supports collaborate with individuals to provide personalized training and guidance on effectively using enabling technology within their homes. The focus is on empowering individuals by delivering the necessary support while encouraging them to explore opportunities to meet their needs and pursue their aspirations independently using technology.
Continual Engagement
Keeping On-Track
Now that you are experiencing the freedom of your choice, the Smart Living team, along with natural supports directed by you or your loved one, continues to provide ongoing education and opportunities. Our goal is to ensure that the individual supported has seamless access to enabling technology and personalized care, empowering them to live the life they desire while adapting to their evolving needs.
