Fall Prevention & Detection

From fall prevention to fall detection, built into every room.

ALLIE reduces the risk and shortens the response with privacy-first sensing embedded in switches, outlets and vents. No cameras. No wearables. No one lying on a bathroom floor waiting to be found.

Why it matters

Most falls announce themselves. Most systems only hear the crash.

The gap between a fall and a response is where outcomes are decided, and it is widest at night, in bathrooms, behind closed doors.

01

Risk shows up first as a pattern

Slower transfers, more night-time bathroom trips, an unsteady gait, a change in routine. These precede falls by days or weeks and are invisible to a pendant.

02

Wearables fail the people who need them most

Pendants are forgotten, refused, taken off in the shower or uncharged. Cognitive decline makes every one of those failures more likely.

03

Time on the floor is the injury multiplier

The longer someone lies unfound, the worse the outcome: dehydration, pressure injury, pneumonia, fear of moving again. Detection has to be automatic.

How ALLIE does it

Notice the drift. Light the path. Catch the fall. Escalate until someone answers.

A single install covers the whole arc of prevention, detection and response, because the same fixtures are already in every room.

  1. 1

    Establish a baseline

    ALLIE learns each room's normal: movement patterns, daily routine, how long the bathroom visit usually takes, what a typical night looks like.

  2. 2

    Detect risk early

    Instability, unusual gait, longer transfers and new night-time wandering patterns surface as risk signals to care teams, before the incident, not after.

  3. 3

    Prevent proactively

    Lighting guidance switches on for night-time paths; caregivers get a heads-up when a high-risk resident is up and moving.

  4. 4

    Detect the fall in real time

    Multi-sensor signals identify a fall event as it happens, with the room, the zone and whether the person got back up.

  5. 5

    Escalate by severity

    Alerts route to the right people with configurable no-response timers, so a fall never waits for the next scheduled check.

Radar resolves posture and motion through the whole room, including the bathroom floor a pendant never reports from.

Response

Room, severity and status, in the first message.

A useful alert answers three questions before anyone starts walking: where, how bad, and are they up. ALLIE answers all three and keeps updating while help is on the way.

Location to the room and zone

Bathroom vs bedside vs doorway, not just 'apartment 214'.

Severity context

Impact signature, time on the floor and post-fall movement.

No-response timers

Escalate to the next tier automatically if no one acknowledges.

Works with your workflow

Designed to sit alongside nurse-call, paging and mobile alerting you already run.

Caregiver responding to a resident

Dignity preserved. Safety assured. A resident should never have to choose between privacy in their own bathroom and someone knowing when they need help.

Fall prevention & detection · design principle

Capabilities

Fall prevention & detection capabilities

Fall-risk patterning

Gait, transfer and routine changes surface as early warnings for care planning.

Night-time safety automation

Path lighting and caregiver heads-ups when high-risk residents are up at night.

Real-time fall detection

Multi-sensor detection with room and zone location, in seconds.

Post-fall status

Did they get up? Are they moving? Breathing and motion context accompany the alert.

Configurable escalation

Tiers, timers and channels tuned to each community's staffing model.

Dignity-first design

Nothing to wear, nothing pointed at anyone, nothing that looks like medical equipment.

Older adults staying active and independent

Prevention is the point

The best fall alert is the one that never has to be sent.

Communities use ALLIE's risk signals to adjust care plans, schedule PT, move a resident closer to the nurses' station or simply check in more often. Detection is the safety net; prevention is the goal.

In practice

Where it lives, and what changes.

Senior living & memory care

In a community

  • Every resident room and bathroom covered, including memory care where pendants are not an option
  • Night-shift staff see who is up and where, instead of walking every hall on a schedule
  • Risk trends feed care conferences and family updates with evidence, not anecdotes
  • Incident timelines with location and response times for quality and liability review

Hotels & extended stay

In a property

  • Guests in distress behind a locked door, a fall in an unfamiliar bathroom at night, reach staff automatically
  • Duty-of-care coverage for older travelers, extended-stay residents and solo guests
  • Alerts route to the front desk or security with the room number and a severity read
  • No change to the guest experience: nothing to wear, nothing to opt into, nothing watching
