Functions
Below you will find a description of the functions that you can find on a Prifora Home Station. In addition, some of these functions can also be used on your smartphone in the Prifora mobile App, which allows you to communicate with the Home Station.
2nd Administrator - Operating the Home Station from a smartphone by family or caregiver
If the user of the Home Station needs help at any time with operating one or more functions, a 2nd administrator can be appointed. In most cases, this will be a close family member who also acts as a caregiver.
The appointed 2nd administrator can then remotely adjust the operation of all functions of the Home Station for the user using the Prifora App on a smartphone.
In principle, any contact known in the Home Station can be appointed as a 2nd administrator by the user.
The user can also cancel the 2nd administrator or appoint another 2nd administrator.
In this way, a care provider could also be appointed as a 2nd administrator, so that the care provider can also better coordinate and implement the planning and control of the care to be provided.
Mobile Network - Connection via WiFi or SIM card from a mobile provider
By adding a SIM card from a mobile operator, the Home Station can now also connect to the internet. This means that in addition to the already available WiFi connection, a connection to the internet is now also possible where there is no good WiFi connection.
This means that a connection with family or loved ones can be guaranteed at any location and under all circumstances.
This is particularly important in emergency situations where one wants to have direct contact with informal caregivers, care providers or professional medical services. See also the special function of the Emergency button on the start page.
Bluetooth - Better sound by connecting to speakers in Base Station
If the user of the Home Station would like to hear the sound of, for example, a video call or playing videos better, this is now possible. The Bluetooth function that is now available can amplify the sound of the screen by connecting it to the speakers in the base station.
The sound button on the side of the screen can be used to turn the sound up or down.
This new Bluetooth function can in principle connect any Bluetooth speaker in the immediate vicinity, such as a hearing aid or headphones.
Slideshow - Autoplay photos and videos and create new slideshow
Playing slideshows keeps fun and memorable moments alive. Selecting and starting a slideshow is easy! To stop, touch the screen.
The attractiveness of a Slideshow depends on the availability of Playlists. With the mobile app, it is easy for you and your contacts to send photos and videos to Playlists.
Video calling - video calling with up to 4 people at the same time. Also telephone and chat
Starting a conversation with a contact or a group is easy. A notification will alert you when you miss incoming video calls or phone calls. Starting a chat with a contact or a group is easy. A notification will alert you when you have new text messages.
Emergency call - Make direct video calls to family or healthcare provider at the touch of a button
You can select a contact person for a quick video call: just 1 press of the “Call Now” button on the home page will connect you!
Regular contact with e.g. your family member or caregiver becomes so easy.
Contacts - All contacts in one photo overview, easy to select and maintain

Agenda & Calendar - Make and consult appointments and set reminders

The Agenda menu offers a number of functions, e.g. sending an invitation for a set activity, activate a reminder signal.
