WESTMINSTER, Colo., Oct. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Inovonics, an industry leader in wireless solutions for life-safety applications, announces the launch of two new next-generation solutions for the senior living market: fall detection and alarm location.

Communities can now upgrade their Inovonics-based emergency call systems to include these advanced features designed to improve resident outcomes and drive greater efficiency for caregiving staff.

The Inovonics fall detection solution automatically alerts caregivers when a resident may have fallen, even if they're unable to press their fall detection pendant's button. The alarm location solution provides precise room and floor location when location-enabled pendants – with or without fall detection – are activated.

The CarePoint Essential emergency call system by Lifeline Senior Living is now fully integrated with both solutions. Lifeline and Inovonics collaborated with the Statesman Group's Manor Village at Desert Ridge community in Phoenix to implement the new system in the second quarter of 2022.

"This new CarePoint system greatly improves our ability to care for our residents", said Nicolle Blais, Chief Operating Officer for the Statesman Group. "Awareness of a fall event that may have otherwise gone undetected can be life-saving, and we've experienced a high degree of accuracy in detecting falls. The location solution is like night and day compared to our original system. Our staff has been delighted that they can quickly find the resident, which is especially important in a large, multi-floor community like ours. We look forward to continuing our engagement with Lifeline and Inovonics to drive additional improvements to CarePoint Essential that will improve outcomes and drive productivity"

Kim Judd, General Manager at Lifeline Senior Living stated: "We're excited to be working closely with Inovonics to deliver these enhanced solutions that make a real difference in the lives of residents and care providers".

"Inovonics has provided reliable emergency call system infrastructure for senior living communities for more than twenty years," said Craig Dever, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Inovonics. "The new fall detection and alarm location solutions are a huge step forward, using advanced technology that supports the outcomes that matter today, and sets the stage for providing a better understanding of a resident's well-being as we expand our solutions in the future."

Built on the Inovonics cloud platform, these solutions combine the reliable hardware Inovonics is known for, with powerful software and API tools for easy integration and data access that can support continuous improvements to performance over time. The new solutions can be integrated into new or existing e-call applications, leveraging existing EchoStream® network infrastructure to offer ease of installation, and are scalable and flexible with the addition of locator devices and pendants as needed.
