Hospitals

Frail people falling is a huge problem for the individual and society. It is likely that someone in a frail state who falls is severely hurt and might never fully recover. In addition to the ailment of this, a fall is particularly costly and derives resources from other important care issues. It is also a huge stress factor for health care staff. The responsibility to minimize falls with what is oftentimes equipment and methods from the past is tolling on staff. RoomMate provides a solution that staff trusts and embraces. Thus, reducing stress and supporting a digital transformation

We often come across organizations that pile one device on top of the other in an attempt to solve a very complex matter. This has a high risk of creating “digital fatigue” among staff. It will eventually burden the staff so much to look after equipment that needs cleaning, battery changing, logistics, reconfiguration, handling false alarms, and so forth, that a natural and understandable resistance to change will build. That is why it is important that the solution you chose to use supports staff in their everyday work and decision-making. 

Patients with dementia and delirium have a severe risk of falling and getting seriously injured while hospitalized. RoomMate can reduce the need for constant physical surveillance of patients. This reduces cost but also supports the patient’s well-being and recovery. Because RoomMate is a passive sensor, it does not depend on the patient's understanding of how to use a button or pull a chord to call for attention.
