Include shift changes in testing
Test alerts during handovers as well. Staff on duty need to identify the room and establish whether someone is already responding. Align this procedure with existing care and call-system workflows.
Safety for residents
Building monitoring and fall detection for care facilities
Care areas and building services need different attention. SECURUS brings camera-free fall detection, indoor climate and technical monitoring together in one platform. Alerts reach care, kitchen or maintenance teams according to the task and agreed procedures.
Separate alerts for care and building services
For care staff: Radar sensors detect falls without a camera and alert the team on duty. They complement care and the nurse call system but do not replace them. More under fall detection.
For building services: Leaks, heating faults and unusual hot water temperatures go to the technical team, not to care staff. Alerts reach the people who can act on them.
For residents: Room temperatures stay in view, especially in hot weather. This supports the facility’s heat protection plan. More under indoor climate.
Monitor kitchens, refrigeration and building services
Alongside resident areas, cold rooms and heating systems are relevant monitoring locations. Alerts should go to kitchen or technical teams when they do not require a care response.
Areas of application
Suitable applications by area
Residents’ rooms and common rooms
Indoor climate monitoring shows temperature, humidity and CO₂, and in hot weather which rooms are heating up critically.
Bathrooms and sensitive areas
Camera-free fall detection reports possible falls to the team on duty.
Laundry and plant rooms
Leak detection and existing fault contacts report water and equipment faults to building services.
Hot water and therapy pools
Drinking water temperatures and water quality over time, in addition to the required testing.
Reception and service points
Wireless buttons for service and assistance requests, door contacts for entrances outside visiting hours.
In practice
Fit monitoring to daily care operations
Care-related events and technical alerts need different procedures. Plan both with responsible staff.
Test room and installation on site
Camera-free fall detection requires suitable coverage, furniture layout and procedures. Test the complete path from detection to response in selected rooms.
Assess heat using historical readings
Temperature histories show which rooms heat up during the day and cool little at night. This adds information for your facility’s heat protection plan.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions from care facilities
Does SECURUS replace a nurse call system?
No. Fall detection and wireless buttons complement your procedures. Required nurse call and emergency systems remain in place.
Are residents filmed?
No. Fall detection uses radar and records no images. Events are still assigned to a room, so agree the purpose and access with data protection and residents beforehand.
Can several facilities be managed together?
Yes. SECURUS manages multiple sites. Using roles, you decide who sees which facility, and alerts go to the team responsible for it.
Does the care team receive technical alerts too?
You decide. Building systems and refrigeration can be assigned to maintenance or kitchens so alerts match the relevant task.
