Care home impact
Throughout the year, care homes such as Azalea Court, Rathmore House, Meifod & Vicarage Court, and Compton Lodge have shared their experiences with Ally, highlighting the transformative impact of the technology.
At Azalea Court, Julie Burton, Head of Operations, described Ally as a “game changer,” enabling optimised, personalised, and proactive care through insights on unseen events:
“With Ally, we’ve been able to optimise the care plan for every resident, leading to transformative improvements in their lives, something we couldn’t achieve with care plan data alone.”
Rathmore House has experienced astonishing results. Their search for a solution to reduce falls evolved into a catalyst for cultural change within the home, resulting in the elimination of high-risk night-time falls, improved staff morale, and a more proactive approach to care. Chris Barry, Care Home Manager, remarked:
“The impact has been huge. Ally hasn’t just improved safety; it’s changed the way we think about care. We’re now able to provide better, more personalised care to our residents, and that’s what it’s all about.”
At Meifod & Vicarage Court, similar sentiments were echoed, with staff noting the “massive reduction in falls” as residents enjoy better sleep and are more alert and interactive during the day. Nazmeen Arif, Responsible Individual at the home, noted:
“Ally has made a tangible difference in our home, giving us a better way to protect our residents without taking away from the personal care we provide. We’re seeing a real change in how residents live and sleep, and that’s what makes this work so worthwhile.”
At Compton Lodge, the focus on improving resident safety at night and enhancing sleep to reduce falls has led to tailored night checks based on individual resident needs rather than adhering to a fixed schedule. Robert Kornas, Care Home Manager, commented:
“The reduction in unnecessary checks has made a real difference. Our residents are now getting much better sleep, which is crucial for their well-being. Ally allows us to monitor without disturbing them, and the benefits of uninterrupted sleep are clear in how residents are during the day.”
Leadership perspective
Thomas Tredinnick, CEO and Co-Founder of Ally, reflected on the organisation’s achievements in 2024:
“Our mission has always been to make care smarter and safer for everyone. These results demonstrate not only the power of our technology but also the incredible commitment of care home teams who partner with us. Together, we’ve been able to create a measurable difference in the lives of residents and staff across the UK.”
Looking ahead
As Ally continues to expand its reach, it remains committed to raising standards in care through innovation, collaboration, and a relentless focus on the needs of residents and staff.
