BeeHive Homes Partners With KamiCare to Elevate Quality of Care in Senior Living Communities With AI Technology Fall Management System
SAN JOSE, Calif., September 13, 2023 (Newswire.com) - BeeHive Homes, a prominent national assisted living and memory care provider, is escalating its commitment to superior care by integrating KamiCare from Kami Vision, a leader in AI-based fall management solutions, in over 50 Beehive Homes nationwide and growing. This strategic partnership seeks to bolster resident safety by detecting and averting falls, resulting in enhanced care quality, improved staff efficiency, and increased peace of mind for families.
Following a successful pilot of the KamiCare technology in two of BeeHive's Farmington, New Mexico, homes, the group decided to implement KamiCare across 33 additional BeeHive Homes in New Mexico and Texas. In just the first three weeks, falls decreased from an average of eight per week to just two per week with KamiCare. Additionally, KamiCare technology provided insights that optimized staff training and fall management.
"We saw an immediate and remarkable return on our investment in Farmington and we expect the same in expanded locations," said Nate Manning, COO of The Manning Group, owner of BeeHive Homes. "We have even seen move-ins partly because we are using KamiCare. One family in particular chose our home over a larger competitor because we offer advanced fall management technology."
With an alarming 36 million falls reported among seniors annually, resulting in three million ER visits and 32,000 deaths, falls represent a critical issue in long-term care communities. Traditional fall management systems often lack the necessary insights into the causes of these incidents, a key component for effective prevention.
KamiCare leverages advanced AI technology to deliver a comprehensive understanding of fall incidents, enabling improved prevention strategies and enhanced safety measures. The system uses vision AI to monitor 30 body points, alerting caregivers of abrupt movements. Falls are auto-detected by AI and verified by a 24/7 expert team, ensuring no false alerts. Caregivers are notified through SMS, push, call, and email within 90 seconds.
The outcome is a safer environment for residents and employees, bolstered risk management, and a heightened competitive edge for BeeHive Homes. This innovative and affordable solution not only increases resident safety but also solidifies BeeHive's standing in a progressively competitive senior living market.
"We are excited to partner with KamiCare," said Dennis Toland, co-founder of Beehive Homes. "We need this kind of technology to provide the best quality of care for our residents and to have a competitive advantage in the markets we serve. I am excited that many of our Beehive Homes across the country are going to be using KamiCare."
"BeeHive Homes is using new tools like KamiCare to help their residents," says Brandon Neustadter from KamiCare. "They genuinely care about the people living there. We're happy to work with them and hope to help even more seniors together."
