Fall detection for aged care
Bring non-wearable radar sensing into the conversation about care. Guardian connects room-based fall detection and movement information with nominated people, alongside your existing care processes.
Guardian senses in the room. Your team brings the context and response.
A useful deployment brings the physical room, the people involved and daily operation together. Explore what to plan with Aware.
Consider Guardian for a defined room where non-wearable sensing fits the resident’s wishes and existing support. There is no camera or microphone.
Assess placement, charging, connectivity and suitability for each room.
How the sensing worksAgree who receives information, who checks the situation and how the team follows its existing response process. Make backup and after-hours responsibilities clear.
Confirm the actual account, access and notification workflow for the proposed service.
Plan charging, connection checks, access changes, training and interruptions. Review the experience with residents and the people responding before adding more rooms.
Supported integrations, service levels and commercial terms are confirmed for your deployment.
Plan the deployment detailsExplore examples of Guardian information in the Aware app. Confirm the views, access and workflows available for your proposed deployment with Aware.
See supported activity from Guardian in the Aware app. A starting point for a conversation with the person at home.
Explore activity patterns alongside the person’s routines and circumstances. A change in movement does not explain its cause or provide a diagnosis.
Configured notifications go to nominated people. Agree who responds, who is the backup and what to do if a notification cannot be delivered.
App screens preview the iOS redesign with example data. Final screens may vary. Phone not included.
Guardian does not record video or conversations. Start with participation and the resident’s wishes, then agree what information is needed and who should have access.
Monitoring information supports the people providing care. Guardian does not replace emergency services, staff judgement or existing checks. Plan who responds alongside your current care process.
Review access and service questionsA bounded pilot gives residents and your team a way to evaluate the setup in your actual environment. Agree the scope, costs and acceptance criteria before it begins.
Choose rooms and participants. Agree intended use, consent, access and the people responsible for responding.
Check placement and connectivity, configure nominated contacts, practise the response process and plan interruptions.
Bring together resident and team feedback, setup findings and agreed acceptance evidence to decide what comes next.
Keep your existing nurse call and clinical record systems in place. Ask Aware to confirm any supported integration for your deployment.
Ask Aware for current security, hosting and assurance documentation. This page does not establish certification to a particular standard.
Choose a small pilot area, agree who will respond and test the setup with your team before expanding. Include residents’ participation, access, costs and the measures you will use to review the experience.
Coverage needs to be assessed room by room for the supplied model, placement and connection. A village-wide or facility-wide deployment is a scoped arrangement, not a capability established by one installed sensor.
Keep existing care and emergency processes in place. Agree responsibilities for checking connections and charging, alternative checks, escalation and recovery before the pilot starts.
No sensing system detects every event. Placement, charging, connectivity and configuration affect operation. Guardian and Aware do not replace emergency services, clinical advice or in-person checks. Agree who responds and test the setup.
