Impact 20-2023-SafelyYou

AI is creating burgeoning opportunities in health care, with the potential to improve the care of patients in innovative ways. One of those applications is the care of dementia patients. SafelyYou uses AI-enabled video technology and 24/7 remote clinical experts to help detect and prevent falls among senior living residents with dementia. When a patient falls, SafelyYou Respond detects it and alerts the resident’s care staff immediately, who can respond to the event within minutes. The video footage can be reviewed to analyze the cause of the fall and help staff create safer environments for the resident. The technology is currently used in over 300 senior living communities throughout North America. SafelyYou says it detects over 10,000 falls a month and protects more than 9,000 seniors a year; the company says the product helps reduce falls by 40% and fall-related ER visits by 80%.<br />
