First customer opts for SafeSense® 3
Senior Citizens' Centre - Vechtetal equips its facilities with the new digital care assistant from wissner-bosserhoff.
The new care facility Senior Citizens' Centre - Vechtetal in the Lower Saxony district of Bad Bentheim, Germany recently became the first customer to opt for the new SafeSense® 3 digital care assistant and will equip all of its facilities' care beds with it.
The Seniorenzentrum-Vechtetal is being built in the municipality of Hoogstede in Lower Saxony and will offer 46 care places and 13 barrier-free flats from 1 April. Managing Director Eike Jonker was enthusiastic during the demonstration of the digital care assistant in the Wickede company's showroom: "Vechtetal Pflege GmbH has set itself the goal of reinventing classic care for the elderly with the help of innovative technology. We chose SafeSense® 3 because the safety of our residents is our top priority. The faster reaction to fall events can often prevent serious consequences of falls."

New digital care assistant
With the new SafeSense® 3 nursing assistant, not only can fall management be optimised via the bed exit sensor technology, but a valuable contribution to pressure ulcer prevention can be made thanks to integrated movement monitoring.
SafeSense® 3 consists of a completely contactless, patented sensor pad that is positioned under the mattress and detects the smallest changes in pressure in real time. This allows the movement activity of residents or patients to be recorded and, with the help of the visualised data, valuable conclusions can be drawn about their individual movement profile.
Fewer control rounds and deprivation of liberty measures, but more resident safety, that is the declared goal of the new technology.
The Senior Citizens' Centre - Vechtetal is being built in the municipality of Hoogstede in Lower Saxony and will provide offer 46 care places and 13 barrier-free flats from 1 April.
