Senior and Planned Living

The pandemic exposed severe technology weaknesses embedded in Senior Living Facilities. Residents and their families will no longer tolerate poor Internet solutions. Moreover, eMedicine and new communication platforms demand robust, reliable and secured networks. FNC’s holistic approach to network design and on-going management provides both a future-proofed environment and a single solution provider.

FNC’s founders take their Senior Living solutions personally. Both Mike and Scott care for family members residing in facilities that left technology solutions up to individual residents via individual carrier accounts. Both Mike and Scott lost contact with their family member for several months when simple problems occurred such as a plug being kicked out of the wall. This is not acceptable! And these facilities were top-of-the-line before the pandemic. Now, Mike and Scott are evangelists for properties with unified technology solutions.

The pandemic was a watershed period for technology in Senior and Planned Living, regardless of where on the care spectrum the facility practices. Technologies have advanced while residents and their families have become more sophisticated. Owners must now ensure there is a robust technology infrastructure with built-in capacity to accommodate quality end-user service needs for today and tomorrow.

Typical Residential Service Needs:

• Internet and WiFi Capabilities including campus wide access with mounted and managed professional grade WiFi access points (APs) and power over ethernet (PoE). In other words, WiFi with no plugs, no cables, no buttons, and actively managed to ensure uptime;

• TV and Streaming Entertainment including simplified remotes, mobile app control and integrated iOT audio;

• Video Conferencing Devices including external audio and video, cloud and mobile app controls, motion and light sensors;

• HVAC Automation including cloud learning and mobile app controls, environmental features such as motion sensors, and integration with iOT devices.

Leverage Future Opportunities

Emerging technologies that reduce costs and drive new revenue are often not possible with single purpose, carrier networks. FNC’s multipurpose, software-driven, infrastructure is designed with future technology needs in mind, which can have a direct impact on a property’s bottom line.

Advanced Residential Service Needs:

• eMedicine Networks including dedicated and secured networks, power of ethernet (PoE) solutions, and virtual private networks (VPN);

• Home Access Control – Door and Garage Locks including external audio and video, cloud and mobile app controls, motion and light sensors;

• Home Automation including light controls, smart iOT devices, and power of ethernet (PoE) solutions;

• Health and Virtual Reality (VR) Networks including dedicated network connections, symmetric routing, and low latency connections.

FNC creates a dynamic asset and manages each building’s infrastructure for current and future demands. Property owners mitigate their capital expenses, technology obsolescence, and operating risk while creating a superior digital ecosystem within their properties. FNC recuperates their investment with a recurring, monthly fee tied to a 10+ year operating lease and service agreement.
