Elderly care
Advanced technology for those advanced in years
The Ascom approach to senior care solutions is straightforward: technology should be unobtrusive. It should enhance residents’ dignity and peace of mind. That’s why Ascom senior care solutions focus on communication between residents and mobile caregivers. This reassures residents—and saves time for staff. Caregivers don’t need to repeatedly walk to residents, nurse stations or fixed phones. They can ascertain a call’s priority while on the go, and if unavailable to respond, can route calls to colleagues.
The same approach applies to our wanderer control solution: discreet, stylish pendants and watch-like wristbands automatically send residents’ positions to caregivers. The solution also automatically locks doors and windows when it senses an at-risk resident is approaching.

Solutions
Visits control
Absent staff, priority management, overload – How to guarantee full support for residents? Ascom offers an application to plan and control the visit of each resident.
Room supervision
Ascom offers a room visualization and supervision solution to quickly inform caregivers in the event of a request for assistance or unusual behavior from residents.
Wanderer Control
Facilities that care for dementia residents face tough challenges. One of the most pressing is how to provide the safest, most secure environment possible—while simultaneously promoting each individual’s dignity and quality of life. An Ascom wanderer control solution can go a long way towards achieving this key objective.
Talk-to-residents
With a wireless telephone, the nurse can speak directly to the resident and immediately assess his or her needs – without taking a step. This saves movement and time, reducing the nurse’s workload.
One-To-One Communication
Perhaps the greatest benefit to residents of an Ascom wireless solution is reassurance. They know their requests for help will always be received and acted upon by the right people at any time of the day, day in, day out.
