MaterCare Homes

The "Grandma Test" passed - No smartphone required. Passive monitoring for elderly that informs caregivers.

What is MaterCare Homes?

MaterCare Homes is an AI-powered eldercare platform designed for the 80% of seniors who don't use smartphones. It combines:

  • πŸ€– Agentic AI - Autonomous decision-making for eldercare

  • πŸ“„ OCR - Scan prescriptions, medical documents

  • πŸ“š RAG - Healthcare knowledge retrieval

  • πŸ“‘ IoT Sensors - Passive monitoring (mmWave, PIR, door sensors)

  • πŸ”” Alerts - SMS/call to caregivers

The Problem We Solve

Quick Start

Installation

pip install matercare-homes

Python Usage

from matercare import MaterCareLLM, SensorGateway, KnowledgeBase

# Chat with eldercare AI
llm = MaterCareLLM()
response = llm.chat("What are signs of dehydration in elderly?")
print(response)

# Set up sensors
gateway = SensorGateway("senior_01")
gateway.register_sensor("mmwave_01", "mmwave")
gateway.register_sensor("door_01", "door")

# Query knowledge base
kb = KnowledgeBase()
results = kb.retrieve("fall prevention")

API Server

# Run API
matercare-api

# Or programmatically
from matercare.src.api import app
import uvicorn
uvicorn.run(app, port=8000)

MCP Server (For AI Agents)

# Run MCP server
matercare-mcp

# Now connect Claude Code, Cursor, etc.

Integration

Connect to Any AI Agent

from matercare.src.mcp import MaterCareMCP, MCPRequest

mcp = MaterCareMCP()

# Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, etc.
response = mcp.handle(MCPRequest(
    method="chat",
    params={"message": "Elder care advice"}
))

REST API

# Chat
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"message": "Fall prevention tips"}'

# Care plan
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/care-plan \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"patient_name": "John", "conditions": ["diabetes"], "mobility": "ambulatory", "cognitive_status": "alert"}'

# Sensors
curl http://localhost:8000/sensors/status

Add Custom Knowledge

from matercare import KnowledgeBase, KnowledgeSource

kb = KnowledgeBase()
kb.add_source(KnowledgeSource(
    name="Custom Hospital Protocol",
    content="Our emergency protocol for...",
    source_type="manual"
))

6-Phase Care Loop Orchestrator

MaterCare features a novel 6-phase orchestration that no competitor has:

Phase 1: SENSE - Collect all data sources

  • IoT sensor data (mmWave, PIR, door)

  • Voice input

  • Documents/prescriptions

  • Historical care data

Phase 2: THINK - Multi-agent analysis

  • TriageAgent: Overall condition assessment

  • MedicationAgent: Drug interactions & adherence

  • VitalAgent: Heart rate, breathing, temperature

  • CognitiveAgent: Mental status evaluation

  • ActivityAgent: Daily patterns

  • SocialAgent: Engagement monitoring

  • EmergencyAgent: Critical condition detection

  • NutritionAgent: Dietary needs

Phase 3: PLAN - Generate care recommendations

Synthesize all agent analyses into actionable recommendations.

Phase 4: ACT - Execute actions

  • Send alerts

  • Update care plans

  • Trigger interventions

Phase 5: LEARN - Feedback loop

Learn from outcomes to improve future recommendations.

Phase 6: REPORT - Notify stakeholders

  • Family members

  • Caregivers

  • Healthcare providers

Using the Orchestrator

from matercare.src.orchestration import MaterCareOrchestrator
from matercare.src.orchestration.agents import get_care_agent

# Create orchestrator
orchestrator = MaterCareOrchestrator()

# Register care agents
orchestrator.register_agent("triage_agent", get_care_agent("triage"))
orchestrator.register_agent("medication_agent", get_care_agent("medication"))
orchestrator.register_agent("emergency_agent", get_care_agent("emergency"))
orchestrator.register_agent("vital_agent", get_care_agent("vital"))
orchestrator.register_agent("cognitive_agent", get_care_agent("cognitive"))

# Execute care loop
result = await orchestrator.care_loop("senior_123", {
    "sensors": {
        "motion": True,
        "fall": False,
        "heart_rate": 72,
        "temperature": 36.5
    },
    "voice": "I'm feeling tired today"
})

print(f"Priority: {result.priority}")
print(f"Recommendation: {result.recommendation}")
print(f"Actions: {result.actions}")

MCP Server for External Agents

The MCP server exposes MaterCare to external AI agents:

# Run MCP server
python -m matercare.src.orchestration.mcp_server

# Or run directly
python matercare/src/orchestration/mcp_server.py

Available tools:

  • care_loop - Execute full 6-phase care loop

  • assess_senior - Get comprehensive assessment

  • check_emergency - Check for emergencies

  • review_medications - Review drugs for interactions

  • register_senior - Register new senior

  • notify_family - Send family notifications

  • get_knowledge - Query knowledge base

  • get_care_history - Get historical data

Connect to TAURUS Platform MCPs

from matercare.src.orchestration.integrations import create_connector

# Create connector to TAURUS MCPs
connector = await create_connector()

# Use MCP bridge for eldercare-specific operations
bridge = MaterCareMCPBridge(connector)

# Notify family via email, SMS, WhatsApp, Slack
await bridge.notify_family(
    senior_name="John Smith",
    message="Fall detected - please check in",
    priority="urgent",
    channels=["email", "sms", "whatsapp"]
)

# Schedule caregiver visit
from datetime import datetime
await bridge.schedule_caregiver_visit(
    senior_name="John Smith",
    caregiver_name="Mary",
    scheduled_time=datetime(2026, 2, 28, 10, 0),
    notes="Regular wellness check"
)
