Helpany’s AI- and radar-powered fall prevention technology, Paul, has been named to TIME’s Best Inventions of 2026 in the Medical & Healthcare category. The recognition highlights Helpany’s privacy-preserving approach to proactive senior care—helping care teams recognize changes earlier, intervene sooner, and prevent more falls without cameras or microphones.

Going deficiency-free takes more than preparing for survey day. It requires strong processes, consistent documentation, and a culture of compliance every day. Discover practical strategies senior living teams can use to strengthen survey readiness and reduce the risk of deficiencies.

A fall often starts with a small change long before a resident loses their balance. Recognizing changes in pain, sleep, medications, mobility, and well-being can give care teams an opportunity to assess what may be happening and intervene earlier. Here are five critical areas to check when a resident’s condition changes—and how AI can help bring those changes to attention sooner.

Helpany and United Zion Retirement Community earned Gold, Silver and Bronze at the 2026 McKnight’s Excellence in Technology Awards. Discover how their proactive, AI-supported approach reduced falls by 70% and ultimately achieved zero falls.

What if caregivers could find a resident faster, respond sooner, and spend less time searching the community? With ePAUL and Location History, that is exactly what becomes possible. By combining Helpany’s resident-worn emergency call device with privacy-preserving PAUL sensors, care teams gain powerful location insights when support is needed. The result: faster response, more efficient care, and greater freedom for residents to live their day on their own terms.

AI-powered fall prevention is everywhere – but not all solutions work the same way. This article explores the key difference between camera-based and radar-based AI, and why more senior living communities are choosing privacy-preserving technology that focuses on preventing falls before they happen. Read how communities are achieving fall reductions of up to 72% while maintaining resident dignity and trust.

Falls remain one of the leading drivers of injury, hospitalization, and healthcare costs among older adults, making prevention an increasing priority across senior living and healthcare. As the industry shifts from reactive response to proactive care, communities are adopting new approaches to identify fall risk earlier and support resident independence. Privacy-preserving technologies such as Helpany illustrate how fall prevention can be integrated into everyday care while empowering caregivers and respecting resident dignity.

When it comes to fall prevention, the technology you choose shapes the resident experience. Radar-based systems focus on motion and well-being, while camera systems capture images—often at the cost of privacy and comfort. Some systems watch people. Helpany understands motion. Here’s the difference between camera-based monitoring and privacy-first radar technology.

Pressure injuries remain one of the most expensive and complex challenges in skilled nursing. This article examines why gaps in workflows and documentation drive risk, how inconsistent turning practices contribute to severe outcomes, and how new technology supports teams in meeting expected standards of care.

Dignity and privacy are not luxuries — they are human rights that should never fade with age. Yet in many care environments, technology meant to protect has quietly eroded these boundaries. What if safety didn’t require surveillance? What if care could preserve both protection and privacy? Discover how Helpany’s radar-based technology is redefining safety — where residents remain unseen, yet always understood.
