The healthcare sector has been struggling with acute staff shortages for several years; a problem that is only getting worse, because a quarter of them will retire in the next five years while the number of elderly people continues to grow. Healthcare workers are increasingly burdened by their demanding work. During a night shift, they often have to go through all the rooms up to three times to check whether patients are okay after a report. Not infrequently, the report turns out to be incorrect afterwards.
With the technology of Kepler Vision Technologies, Kepler brings more efficiency to elderly care. With one smart sensor, the Kepler Night Nurse software detects when patients fall, sit on the edge of their bed, stay in the bathroom too long or lie on one side for a long time. This allows care staff to take appropriate action faster and more selectively, patients are woken up less unnecessarily and more valuable time remains for real care.
“Smart sensor solutions such as the Kepler Night Nurse from Kepler Vision Technologies contribute to good patient care and make the work of healthcare professionals more efficient. These types of innovations are desperately needed to keep our healthcare at a high level and affordable.”
