Enhance the Health & Wellbeing of Your Residents by Completing the Care Picture

Care Homes

For any care home, a comprehensive understanding of each resident’s health is critical.  Missing or incomplete information can lead to problems. 

This is where Ally’s AI Resident Monitoring System stands out as a versatile solution that goes beyond falls prevention and aids in the early diagnosis of acute infections and much more.

Acute infections like urinary tract infections (UTIs) and respiratory infections can quickly escalate in elderly residents, leading to severe complications or even hospital admissions. Traditional monitoring methods can miss early signs and symptoms which could result in a delay in treatment. But with Ally, the system continuously tracks residents’ vital signs and behaviours, providing real-time data and timely alerts to caregivers.

The strength of Ally’s system lies in its ability to detect subtle changes that might indicate the onset of an infection. For instance, variations in sleep patterns, increased restlessness, or unusual vocalisations can be early signs of health issues. By analysing these patterns, Ally can alert caregivers to potential problems before they become critical…

Ally’s system captures sound and motion when residents are alone.  Data points captured can be integrated into digital care software to provide a holistic view of each resident’s health. This comprehensive monitoring ensures that any deviations from normal behaviour are quickly identified and can be addressed accordingly. There’s no question that data provided by Ally is invaluable in helping to deliver better preventative care outcomes as care teams can use this to make informed decisions, adjust care plans, and coordinate with healthcare professionals for early diagnosis and treatment.

The beauty of the system benefits extend beyond health improvements. Early detection of infections reduces the need for extensive medical interventions, lowers healthcare costs, and minimises the strain on the care home. Residents experience fewer hospital stays and enjoy a better quality of life, as their health issues are managed more effectively with less disruption. Kingsbury Court has experienced this firsthand:

Ally’s AI Resident Monitoring System plays a critical role in completing the care picture.  By leveraging its versatility in early infection diagnosis helps to enhance health outcomes. Advanced AI technology like this helps care can provide safer, more responsive care, ultimately transforming residents’ well-being.

In summary, there’s no denying that working alone can lead to feelings of isolation and increased stress. For lone workers in care homes, knowing there’s a reliable system like Ally’s Resident Monitor supporting their work can significantly boost their confidence and morale whilst also providing reassurance by creating a safer, less stressful, and more rewarding environment for care professionals. Together, we can transform the care experience and ensure that both residents and caregivers thrive.
