Who uses wellness monitoring

Assisted living facilities

Monitor resident activity across units without intrusive supervision. Get alerts when routines change or emergencies occur.

Healthcare facilities

Group homes

Monitor multiple residents while respecting privacy. Staff receive alerts only when intervention may be needed.

Wellness features

Activity monitoring

Track normal daily patterns using motion sensors. The system learns typical routines—when residents wake up, move around, and go to bed—and alerts staff when patterns change.

  • Motion-based activity detection
  • Pattern learning over time
  • No cameras required for privacy

Inactivity alerts

Get notified when no activity is detected for an unusual period. If a resident who normally moves around every few hours hasn't triggered any sensors, staff can check in.

  • Customizable inactivity thresholds
  • Time-of-day awareness
  • Per-resident settings

Emergency pendants

Wearable panic buttons let residents call for help instantly. Press the button to alert staff and/or the monitoring station immediately.

  • Waterproof wearable options
  • Works throughout the facility
  • Optional professional monitoring

Caregiver notifications

Staff receive instant push notifications, texts, or emails when alerts trigger. Multiple staff members can be notified simultaneously for faster response.

  • Multiple notification methods
  • Role-based alert routing
  • Escalation if not acknowledged

Additional safety features

Activity reports

Generate reports showing activity patterns over time. Useful for care planning and family updates.

Scheduled check-ins

Set up daily wellness check-ins. Residents confirm they're okay via the panel, and staff are alerted if check-ins are missed.

Integrated security

Wellness monitoring works alongside intrusion detection, access control, and cameras for comprehensive facility safety.

Privacy-focused design

Wellness monitoring is designed to provide safety without compromising dignity. Activity is tracked through motion sensors rather than cameras, and alerts only notify staff when patterns suggest a potential issue—not for every movement.

No video required

Motion sensors provide activity data without cameras

Smart alerts

Only notify when patterns indicate a concern

Resident control

Emergency buttons give residents agency
