Healthcare, and senior living specifically, has created new and impressive advancements in the industry, including dining options, medication management, design of the physical community, and much more. However, there is still a gap in the prevention of a crisis for seniors. Foresite is a technology that bridges that gap.

The best way for a senior to remain healthy and live life to the fullest is to prevent major illnesses and a crisis from happening in the first place. Foresite's predictive capabilities can detect falls up to three weeks before they occur, as well as monitor for indicators of future heart or respiratory illness. This allows the senior to receive additional assistance, effectively heading off a future incident.

For many years, senior living provided seniors with call pendants, which require the senior to call for help after a crisis, such as a fall, occurs. However, in some instances, the senior may be unable to use the pendant effectively, such as the type of injury or disorientation. Foresite reduces this dependency on user operation by monitoring the environment so that when an emergency takes place, the care team is immediately alerted.

Did you know that studies show approximately 90% of falls by seniors are not observed? While prevention is key, the ability to identify causes of a fall when they happen are crucial to preventative care. Using non-invasive 2D imaging, care teams can review incidents and identify preventative measures to eliminate the risk in the future.

A common fear of seniors considering senior living is the preservation of their finances: What if I run out of money? What if I need a higher, more expensive level of care? Foresite's predictive technology helps the resident maintain independence and avoid the increases in cost of care that are often necessary after an incident, such as a fall, has occurred.

58% of 911 calls by seniors are made because of a fall or because of heart-related issues. Use of Foresite can prevent the need for the call in the first place, allowing first responders to provide assistance to others in need.

Use of predictive technology ensures that healthcare employees in senior living have the best tools at their disposal to provide care and reduce the stress that can come from emergency situations.
