Supporting Caregivers & Enriching the Daily Life of People in Care

In Germany, more than 780.000 care patients are living full-time in facilities (source: Statista, 2021). According to the Federal Ministry of Health, 1,25 million people were employed in care facilities in 2021. Especially in the elderly care sector, many caregivers work part-time only (source: BMG).

The thought of living in a care facility is not necessarily associated with positive feelings for many people. Survey participants worry about skill shortates and high costs but also lack of social interactions and entertainment if they were to live in a care facility (source: PWC via sozialbank.de).

This is where Media4Care comes in. The company developed a digital care assistant in form of a tablet that can be used both in care facilities but also supports at-home-care with different services such as cognitive learning excercises, games, biographical work, physical workouts, creative tasks and more.

The service is available for individuals and groups and offers easy-to-use and individual content that can be adapted to the different requirements of people in need of care to enrich their lives with diverse and creative activities.

“With our offer, we are set up perfectly for the future: with increasing customer numbers, internationalization and diversifying our products, we need flexible billing and reliable accounting processes”

Robin Yoshida, Head of Finance and Operations at Media4Care

What Makes Media4Care a Great Business Model?

Digital innovation works best when it can support people in their daily work and tasks. The Media4Care app and tablets offer people in care both at home and in facilities to engage in creative, physical, social and cognitive activities and fill their daily routine with more variety.

This relieves caregivers but also increases social bonds via group games or the family portal that’s available for private users. People suffering from dementia can train their cognitive skills with curated excercises and positively impact the disease’s progression.

Media4Care therefore combines care requirements with entertainment and interactions to enrich and vary the life in care.

Accounting support with Billwerk+ and taavas

The auditing company taavas supported Media4Care with the implementation of the subscription and billing platform Billwerk+ Transform. Additionally, it provides annual financial statements and consultation for tax-related topics both nationally and internationally.

Billwerk+ Transform is a subscription and billing platform that helps Media4Care to manage and scale their subscription model and connect everything to their existing financial processes and systems to enable seamless workflows and reporting.

That way, Media4Care – as a venture capital-financed company – is able to create a monthly, high-qualitative reporting and manage its monthly accounting.

“We support our clients with technical integration and tax treatments of provided services for national and international customers. We also address special features such as the one-stop-shop(OSS) and prepare annual financtial statements and tax returns. We aim to offer our clients 360°-services.”
