—Tailored Care develops software designed to help “care professionals”—a category that includes nurses and social workers—support unpaid family caregivers, who work to keep seniors out of nursing homes and other assisted living facilities. The Madison, WI-based startup’s products help users identify whether caregivers are stressed or at risk for depression, and provide them “a clearer understanding of the impact of caregiving on their physical and emotional health and relationships.” Tailored Care’s founding team includes Ali Ahmadi, Jessica Jacobs-Vechinski, and Rhonda Montgomery.
The startup was previously picked to participate in Pulse@MassChallenge, a lab in Boston dedicated to supporting digital health ventures. More recently, Tailored Care was selected for “Health: US 2018,” a new program focused on developing products and services to address the needs of the country’s aging population. Advocatia is also participating in the Health: US 2018 program.
