Independa™ Announces Availability of its Award-Winning Technology on New “AnyTV Companion”

SAN DIEGO – October 20, 2014 – Independa, Inc., the leader in integrated resident facing technologies, today announced the availability of its award-winning application on the new “AnyTV Companion,” manufactured by LG Electronics, Independa partner and strategic investor. This addition allows Independa to be available on existing televisions, regardless of the manufacturer.

“Thanks to our strategic partners at LG, organizations with relatively new TVs interested in implementing Independa in their resident suites can now enjoy all the same benefits of our award winning LG TV-based Independa solution, right on their existing TV,” said Kian Saneii, CEO of Independa. “The Independa AnyTV Companion works seamlessly with any HDMI-enabled TV currently in place, preserving existing investments, whether the TVs were purchased by the community or brought in by the residents. We have changed the game in resident facing solutions yet again, and this aligns perfectly with our core business philosophy — impactful technologies, made simple.”

Independa integrated CloudCare meets the needs of all individuals in the care ecosystem, from the resident, to the organization and professional caregivers, to personal caregivers. With customizable modules spanning all care and residential settings, from community engagement to social engagement to integrated monitoring, to name a few, Independa offers unique features across the care continuum, from independent living at home or in a community, to continuing care at home, to assisted living, memory care, short-term rehabilitation and a nursing home. Residents effortlessly access the software through the most familiar and most used device in their lives, their TV. It’s simple to install and use, requiring no new technology skills to learn.  

In addition to accessing Independa via the AnyTV Companion, Independa’s solutions are available embedded within LG’s industry leading commercial televisions, which will remain the standard configuration for new construction, refurbishing communities, and upgraded entertainment installations.
