We are thrilled to announce that Adaptive Care has been nominated for the prestigious Leaders in Care Innovative Solutions – Care Homes Award 2024! At the heart of our nomination lies our transformative project focusing on the complex care needs of residents at Epilepsy Society’s Chalfont Centre. Over the past 12 months, we have made a significant impact in addressing the unique challenges posed by conditions such as epilepsy, particularly during the night, when risks are heightened. This recognition highlights our commitment to innovation and excellence in the care home sector, and we are incredibly excited to share this milestone.
Caring for individuals with epilepsy requires a specialised approach, particularly in a residential setting where the night-time poses unique dangers. Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is an alarming risk, making early intervention critical.
Traditional monitoring methods, such as 30-minute checks, do not provide real-time information that could detect a potentially dangerous seizure. Equally, they are time consuming and can disrupt a person’s sleep, with risk of adverse outcomes.
To tackle these challenges, we partnered with the Epilepsy Society to implement our industry-leading CLB Acoustic Monitoring, Nurse Call System, and Visual Sensors. The impact of our project has been profound. With the ability to detect potentially dangerous nocturnal seizures that were previously unnoticed, we have enabled timely interventions that could save lives.
Our technology not only enhances resident safety but also empowers care staff. Knowing they have immediate access to real-time information allows them to provide the best possible care with confidence. The reduction in intrusive checks has led to improved sleep quality for residents, ultimately contributing to their overall well-being.
The Leaders in Care Awards is an esteemed event that takes place annually, honouring the outstanding contributions of individuals and organisations within the social care sector. This year, the awards will be held on 8th October, at the National Conference Centre in Solihull. It’s a significant occasion where the best in the industry come together to celebrate achievements, share insights, and foster connections.
At Adaptive Care, we believe that innovation is the key to providing exceptional care. Our nomination for the Innovative Solutions – Care Homes Award reflects our dedication to providing cutting-edge solutions that enhance the quality of life for both residents and caregivers. We continuously strive to implement new technologies and practices that not only improve care delivery but also empower staff and enrich the lives of those living in care.
This black-tie event promises an inspiring evening filled with networking opportunities and insights from the best in the industry. Regardless of the outcome, being nominated is a significant honour for Adaptive Care, and we look forward to coming together to celebrate excellence achieved in social care over the past year and to shape an even better future!
At Adaptive Care, we are dedicated to working in partnership with the NHS and social care organisations to support health and social care professionals in improving well-being for all through quality technology. Our innovative solutions including Acoustic Monitoring, Nurse Call Systems and Workforce Management are designed to ease the burden on care homes, particularly in this challenging financial climate.
Celebrating our valued partner, Ed Russell of WCS Care, awarded an OBE in the King’s Birthday Honours for his outstanding services to care home residents. Ed was the first to implement our CLB acoustic monitoring technology in a UK care home, leading to significant improvements in resident safety and well-being.
We are so pleased to share that Adaptive Care have been nominated for the prestigious AV Award 2024 yet again, this time in the Public Sector Project of the Year category for the successful installation of Acoustic Monitoring and Visual Monitoring systems at Epilepsy Society.
Acoustic monitoring can help improve the sleep quality within care environments. We explain why sleep is so important for residents and explore 6 ways that acoustic monitoring in care homes can help improve sleep in older adults.
