The speed of change in the healthcare ecosystem is picking up, there’s no doubt about it. Even within the first few weeks of 2024, companies all across healthcare are speaking with more confidence about the potential of their innovations in care models, tools and economic models. In elder care, there’s a quiet revolution underway to improve care through automation and thoughtful technology. At Norbert, we are uniquely incorporating hardware and AI to bring our AI sensing hub to all elder care workflows. This technological advancement is reshaping not just facility-based care, but also rapidly enabling a dependable transition to home-based elder care.

Norbert is a smart companion across daily life

Picture a rapidly aging world, where the elderly population is set to double in the next three decades. A demographic shift accompanied by challenges such as continuing increase of healthcare costs, strained quality of care, and a stretched workforce.

In this context, the role of AI sensing hubs becomes crucial, especially in the home setting where the need for both supervised and unsupervised care is growing.

In the race to meet the challenges of an aging population, Norbert Health is leading the charge with its AI sensing hub. This device enables smarter, more focused interaction with seniors, making it possible to seamlessly integrate cutting-edge technology into everyday environments, from professional care facilities to the family home. Intuitively bridging the latest technology with user-centric design, Norbert Health is setting a new standard for elder care, ensuring that essential care is both accessible and non-intrusive, no matter where it’s delivered.

Norbert Health’s AI sensing Hub is a versatile tool, valuable in both facility-based settings like skilled nursing facilities and senior living communities, as well as in the home. The hub’s design is simple and user-friendly, integrating easily into the daily lives of the elderly and their caregivers. This integration is vital, as it supports a natural, comfortable care environment. Whether in the hands of professional caregivers or operating independently, the hub consistently monitors the key aspects of health, maintaining a balance of vigilance and discretion. This dual applicability ensures that, regardless of the environment, the AI Sensing Hub is a critical component in the continuity of care for the elderly — providing peace of mind to both families and caregivers.

Implementing Norbert in common areas and resident rooms seamlessly

Moreover, Norbert Health’s technology empowers the elderly to maintain their independence longer while ensuring they receive the care they need. This balance is key in home-based care, where the comfort of familiar surroundings is as important as the quality of care provided. With automation at the forefront, enabling tools such as Norbert’s device finally allow new models and approaches to come to life. Right care at the right place.
