Brad Hoover, a case manager in a Human Services Department, Aging & Disability division, uses MotionX-GPS Drive to find the most efficient routes around his territory in the south suburbs of Seattle. His job involves visiting the homes of aging and/or disabled persons to assess their ability to function, which in turn is used to determine how much in-home care they need in order to prevent out-of-home placement.

As a case manager, Brad is frequently on the road. Streets in his area tend to be very confusing and they are named inconsistently between towns. Also there are not many basic grid patterns due to the terrain and the way many housing developments have grown over time.

“I really like the ability to set mapping features, such as Fastest Route and Avoid Freeways,” Brad said. “And how it seems to take into account real drive-time traffic conditions. There are plenty of features to use, I really like the iPod & compass features, and it’s not overwhelming.”

“Case managers really need to have an accurate quick and efficient mapping to get to clients houses. Learning to trust and not override the GPS guidance is difficult, but worth it. MotionX-GPS Drive routed me to the freeway in a manner I would have never thought was faster than usual.”

MotionX-GPS Drive is ideally suited to meet Brad’s real-time door-to-door navigation needs to help him perform his work efficiently and easily.
