RFID Solutions for Long Term Care
Improve quality of care and safety for residents. Stop harmful wandering while allowing residents to move freely throughout the facility. Even track personal items like laundry, food, or medication – all with complete accuracy.
RFID Solutions For Long Term Care
More than half of long term care residents have been diagnosed with some form of dementia/Alzheimer’s disease. It is estimated that more than 60% of people with Alzheimer’s will wander at some point during the course of the disease.
But you can stop unsafe wandering. CYBRA’s resident tracking system uses advanced Edgefinity IoT software and state of the art RFID hardware to create the long term care industry’s most advanced RTLS (Real Time Location System) — designed to prevent residents from wandering and eloping as well as optimize workflow and improve patient care.
Prevent Elopement
Improve quality of care and safety for Residents – stop elopements and harmful wandering with 100% accuracy while allowing residents to move freely throughout the facility.
Provide Safety For Staff
CYBRA’s system also allows staff members to act in case of an emergency using 3 customizable call buttons on their staff badges. Press one button to call security and another to call a doctor.
Improved Reimbursements
Due to the high paced work atmosphere in long term healthcare facilities, the ability to record each procedure is a challenge that can cost you. Keep better records with CYBRA’s software.
Keep Staff One Step Ahead
The CYBRACare RTS can issue alerts for residents who are in proximity of another resident that may be a cause of concern to staff. It can also give the location of a resident who wanders too far.
Personal Item Tracking
In long term care, tracking personal items is important, too. Keep laundry from getting mixed up, or make sure there are no mix ups with patient’s medication.
Optimized Asset Utilization
CYBRACare RTS ensures that expensive equipment won’t get lost and is constantly being utilized in an optimized fashion to maximize workflow, and prevent the purchase of unnecessary new equipment.
How Edgefinity IoT Works
Edgefinity IoT uses enhanced resident wristband technology. The system alerts staff and gives the location of a resident who wanders too far from a designated area or comes close to a sensor at an entrance or exit. You set rules by resident (or resident category) for which locations (and at what times of day) warnings need to be issued. For instance, a particular resident may be free to roam the premises during the day – other than certain dangerous areas such as the roof – but may be restricted from leaving his room at night.
Here’s How To Sleep at Night.
If a resident “elopes,” and leaves a facility, an operator can be subject to heavy fines by state and federal regulators, as well as potential lawsuits by family members, increases in liability insurance premiums, and negative publicity resulting in lost business. Just one elopement episode has the potential to put a facility in jeopardy and restrict new admissions. Only Edgefinity IoT gives you the exact location of a resident with absolute certainty at all times. No false alarms. No missed elopement episodes. That’s complete peace of mind.
