Remote Monitoring
Boosting Efficiency for Caregivers in Assisted Living
Embracing remote monitoring from Helpany is a game-changer for assisted living facilities. It not only boosts efficiency and reduces costs but can also ensures a higher standard of care for residents.
The Challenge
Consider an assisted living facility with 80 residents and 10 caregivers working in shifts (daytime, evening, and nighttime). On average, caregivers perform 20 Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) per resident each day. These ADLs include essential tasks like ambulation, feeding, dressing, personal hygiene, continence, and toileting.
However, a common inefficiency arises: caregivers often walk into empty apartments. Each unnecessary walk-in takes approximately 5 minutes (this depends on the layout of the building). If 30% of these walk-ins are into empty apartments, this results in:
480 empty walk-ins per day
2,400 minutes (40 hours) of wasted time daily
876,000 minutes (14,600 hours) of wasted time annually
At an average cost of $15 per caregiver per hour, this inefficiency costs this facility a staggering $219,000 per year.
The Solution:
By remotely checking if residents are present in their apartments, caregivers can avoid unnecessary walk-ins.
This can lead to significant time and cost savings, allowing caregivers to focus more on direct resident care and improving overall efficiency.
