Orange Healthcare, a division of France Telecom dedicated exclusively to health services, has signed an agreement with Medical Mobile SAS for the commercialization in France of the Columba bracelet for people with dementia. Under the brand Columba by Orange they aim to get to the institutional healthcare market.
No news from Tunstall on bringing the Columba bracelet to the UK market following their letter of intent with Medical Intelligence Technologies Inc. (See Telecare Aware item 6 November last year, and search Telecare Aware for ‘Columba’ for other related items.)
