Eskilstuna, SE improves efficiency and security in its home care service with smart key pilot
Two home care service areas were outfitted with digital key systems for the two-month pilot. Care providers use time-limited digital keys for access during appointed times. Municipal officials can track who accesses client doors and the timing of each visit. Eskilstuna will evaluate how the smart key system can be used for more efficient scheduling and improved client services. There is the option for a three-month pilot extension and plans for citywide adoption in the future.
