Wellbridge of Brighton, a post-acute rehabilitation and nursing care center, recently put Independa-enabled televisions in each recovery room.

The system helps residents stay connected to family members, the company said, noting that one Wellbridge resident recently was able to attend her grandson’s wedding via Skype and the Independa system.

“Our guests tell us that they heal faster because of Independa,” said WellBridge COO Mike Perry. “People who may not be able to operate Skype on a laptop or an iPad can operate it on their Independa-enabled television. This ability to stay connected and participate in important life events during recovery is vital and we know that it’s one of the reasons hospitals recommend WellBridge.”
