Revolutionising Care with the Whzan Blue Box
How the latest technology is helping our mission...
Published: 06/03/2025
At Right at Home South Cheshire, we are always looking for innovative ways to enhance the care we provide to our clients. That’s why we are excited to introduce the Whzan Blue Box, a cutting-edge, all-in-one health monitoring device that will help us track vital signs and detect early warning signs of health issues, ensuring timely intervention and reducing unnecessary hospital admissions.
What is the Whzan Blue Box?
The Whzan Blue Box is an advanced health monitoring kit that enables straightforward, NHS-approved assessments of vital signs. The process involves taking secure, non-invasive health checks and compiling the data into a final score, known as the National Early Warning Score (NEWS2). This scoring system allows us to quickly access a person’s health status and identify any signs of deterioration before they become serious.

How does the NEWS score work?
The NEWS2 score is a standardised system used across the NHS, making it a shared language for health professionals, including Doctors, GPs, Hospitals and many more. It monitors key vital signs such as:
-Heart Rate
-Blood Pressure
-Oxygen Saturation
Temperature
-Respiratory Rate
Each reading has an individual score, which is then calculated to give and overall, NEWS score, which then indicates the level of clinical urgency. A higher score suggests a greater need for medical attention, allowing caregivers and health professionals to respond appropriately.

Benefits of the Whzan Box:
1
Detect health concerns early – Regular monitoring helps identify potential issues before they escalate.
2
Reduce unnecessary hospital admissions—If we can identify health concerns earlier, we can assess the issue sooner, before they need to be admitted. For instance, we may be able to track a person becoming gradually unwell despite them seeming well. Therefore, we show the NEWS score deteriorating to a health professional, who can address the issue, rather than these symptoms going ‘under the radar’ and leading to a hospital admission.
3
Minimise last-minute GP visits – Similar to reducing hospital admissions, better health tracking ultimately means fewer unplanned trips to the Doctor.
4
Enhance communication between healthcare providers – As the NEWS score is recognised by the NHS, it allows seamless information sharing because of the respected scores.
5
Providing peace of mind – Our clients and families can feel assured knowing their health is being proactively managed.
