ElderSens, a leading Silicon Valley startup company providing
smart elderly care solutions, has launched its automatic senior
Fall Alert system with identification of accident location. The
main objective of the system is to reduce the time emergency
personnel respond to falls, especially when the victim is
unconscious or delirious. Reducing response time to initiate
appropriate patient care may decrease morbidity and mortality
rates. The Fall Alert system is readily introduced into hospitals
or nursing home environments at low cost.
Most traditional medical alert monitoring systems rely on a
button that seniors must press in order to call for help. Some
seniors encountering an accident may be unable to press their
medical alert button. Equipped with the most advanced motion sensor
and sophisticated algorithm, ElderSens Fall Alert system will
automatically sense an accident and sends real-time alert to nurses
and caregivers.
This newly launched Fall Alert system is integrated into the
ElderSens platform. The ElderSens platform consists of Bluetooth
sensors, Bluetooth to Wifi mesh network, and cloud based software
to continuously monitor the elderly under care and to send
real-time alerts to the assisted living staff. ElderSens has
partnered with major health networks and elderly care distributors
for trials and deployment of its products.
“We are excited to launch automatic fall alert and location
sensing system in response to a strong demand in elderly care
market. The introduction of this new system into ElderSens
platform, in addition to previously announced DiaperSens system,
enables us to provide more comprehensive solution to the problems
that assisted care facilities face,” said Dr. Li Li, co-founder of
ElderSens. “We are dedicated to support on-going trials and system
deployments in the market, while we proceed with the development of
the remaining products announced as part of our platform, all part
of our commitment to deliver the most advanced and complete elderly
care platform solution on the market,” continues Li.
