Care tech leader Sensio has announced a strategic long-term partnership agreement with Lovett Care for its multi-sensor RoomMate technology and digital nurse call system to be rolled out across Lovett Care’s portfolio of care homes.
As Lovett Care acquired New Care in October 2024, the technology will also feature in all New Care facilities.
RoomMate is a privacy-first multi-sensor that alerts care teams when a resident is at risk of a fall and helps ensure staff are available to prevent a fall before it happens. The technology captures valuable activity data that is fed directly through to care planning software to enrich care plans and drive better quality evidence-based decision making.
The digital nurse call system is a wireless, silent nurse call system that transforms care home environments by removing noisy call bells. Sensio Nurse Call sends alerts directly through to care teams handheld devices, enabling teams to triage support to those most in need. Both of these solutions are designed specifically for those living with dementia where traditional forms of alerting are not always appropriate or workable.
Following a successful pilot which demonstrated a significant reduction in falls, highlighted positive outcomes for residents, and fostered a better working environment for care teams, Lovett Care has made the decision to roll out the technology across its homes.
Lisa Delaney, country manager at Sensio UK, said: “We are very excited to be partnering with Lovett Care and this is an important step for Sensio in the UK. We have really enjoyed working with the team so far and have been impressed by their eagerness to embrace new technology. I look forward to growing our partnership further over the next few months and help Lovett Care to deliver the best care possible for their residents.”
Lovett Care CEO Keith Crockett commented: “Both Lovett Care and New Care are already leading care home operators in technology advancements, so adopting Sensio’s RoomMate and digital nurse call system will further enhance and improve our residents’ experiences. The trial was a success, and RoomMate proved to be highly effective in reducing falls. We’re excited to partner with Sensio to integrate this technology into our homes, further enhancing the safety and support we provide to our residents.”
