Fewer falls and injuries
Falls among the elderly are often the start of a rapid downward spiral. If we prevent falls, the enjoyment of life and life expectancy increase, while elderly care becomes more sustainable.
Less stress and lower sickness absence
Those who work in elderly care notice that the pressure and stress are increasing. With RoomMate you get a better overview and can make the right priorities for your time. This way you can experience better days and increased energy.
Better sleep with less physical supervision
Physical supervision at night will often wake the resident so that he sleeps poorly and may have a bad day. RoomMate removes the need for unnecessary supervision and gives the resident better sleep and enjoyment of life.
More time for physical care
With RoomMate, you know at all times which residents need help - and which do not. This frees up capacity, and you get more time to take care of those who need it most.

Frequently asked questions about RoomMate
What is RoomMate?
RoomMate is a patient warning and monitoring system, based on a unique infrared light 3D technology. It can send anonymised images of the situation in the room so that healthcare professionals can check alarms and carry out digital and anonymous inspections without disturbing the resident or making unnecessary interventions in privacy. RoomMate is a so-called passive warning sensor that warns of falls and other possible dangerous events without the resident having to carry equipment on their body or triggering an alarm themselves. RoomMate is extremely well-tested and has more than 11.000 sensors deployed in Scandinavia. We have very good references from all types of healthcare providers, and there is virtually no churn.

Which alerts and alarms can RoomMate trigger?
RoomMate can warn about these incidents: Falls – if a person falls in the room the sensor will pick that up without any need for wearables Sits up in bed – gives an alert if a person prone to falls sits up during the night. This means that care staff can get to the patient before they leave the bed Leaving the bed – if the patient leaves the bed Leaving the chair – if the patient leaves the chair Activity – general activity in the room Person enters the room – if someone enters the room, perhaps at a time when that’s not supposed to happen Person leaves the room – be alerted when someone leaves the room and might cause harm to themselves or others High volume – patients crying out for help can be heard by the sensor Movement in bed – if the patient doesn’t move for a certain time it can mean that they might need help, for instance, to reduce pressure ulcers. and the other way, if they do move sufficiently themselves, they might not need help turning.
