Security solutions, Access control and detection that Neat Group has installed in the health centers of Malaga and Granada of the Sisters Hospitallers have allowed to increase the security of the facilities, Improve patient care and optimize the work of health professionals. Also, It has also implemented a telemedicine solution and a videoconferencing solution that allows residents to communicate with their family members..

The centres of the Sisters Hospitallers of Malaga and Granada, dedicated to the care of people with intellectual disabilities, They wanted to raise the quality of life of users and families, provide nursing homes with innovative safe technology to modernize their facilities and help health professionals respond to emergency situations.

To carry out this project, opted for Neat Group technology that, after carrying out an analysis to determine what the real needs of these centers were, installed different security and home automation systems that responded to the needs of both patients and health professionals. With the solutions implemented, have achieved greater security for both professionals and residents, reducing conflict levels and improving the quality and efficiency of patient care.

Access control

The fundamental interest of the Sisters Hospitallers was to ensure that the patient felt free by the center but that it was also controlled and, to do that, The wandering system was installed. A number of transit zones were configured to allow or restrict access to residents through these zones., they used D-POS technology, which generates a three-dimensional magnetic field of very low intensity. In turn, this access policy was configured on the Udat bracelet, carried by the resident.

Every time a resident crosses an arch, The wristband identifies the name and location of the resident and verifies that the resident has permission to access. If you cross a restricted area, Your bracelet launches an automatic alarm. The alarm is picked up by the D-Tect unit and sent to the central application called D-Server. In turn, the D-Tect sends an alarm that reaches a receiver called D-Trex assigned to the person in charge of the service, who will accept the alarm and act immediately.

The security and peace of mind that the wandering system offers is integral, since the encapsulation of the Udat bracelet was designed to prevent the resident from taking it off without the help of a professional; In addition, this bracelet can be submerged in the pools during hydrotherapy sessions..

Due to the nature of their work, Health professionals can be exposed to risky situations, For this they were equipped with the panic button, a system that works with the D-Atom bracelet. When the professional is in a situation of risk can press the button in a simple way and receive help from his colleagues as soon as possible. The D-Atom unit stores the last step performed by the professional. When it detects an emergency and presses the panic button, The bracelet sends a radio signal indicating the area in which it is located.

Motion sensors

The shift that most worries this type of residential centers is the night, as healthcare staff is reduced and being aware of the needs of residents is more complicated. Addressing this concern, Neat Group installed bed sensors that alert professionals when a resident leaves. The sophisticated technology of these devices allows a configuration that can alert just at the moment when the resentful leaves the bed or a return time can be established., if this time is exhausted, The sensor will launch the alert. These alerts are also received by the D-Trex unit..

In addition to these systems, the center of Malaga also chose to install other types of sensors such as night light, Humidity and videos. Some residents become disoriented when they wake up at night, to do that, A sensor was installed in the bathroom, which, via bed sensor, turn on the bathroom light and when the resident returns to bed, Bathroom light turns off automatically.

Another concern of the managers of these centers was that some of their residents sometimes wake up wet.; To cover this need, a mat-type device was installed that detects the spillage of any liquid, like urine, alarms D-Trex receivers. In this way, Caregivers can change them immediately and help them stay dry overnight to avoid hypothermia and ulcers..

Video Systems

In the center of Malaga have also been implemented three video systems: A video conference between gyms, One-way video cameras and traditional video conferencing. These systems have not only benefited residents and health professionals., rather, they have allowed families to feel integrated.. Now the relatives, even if they live in other provinces they can be witnesses, in real time, of your family member's activities, Residents can participate, via birthday video conferencing, Communions, Etc., of your family and professionals, from a monitor, can direct, simultaneously, The activities of residents in different gyms.

Alarm systems

In order to meet the care needs of residents in critical health, an alarm system was installed in the intermediate care unit.

normally, in most care facilities, when an older patient, worsening multipathological is referred to the emergency room and admitted to the hospital. With this alarm system, The dynamics are completely transformed since patients in acute process are admitted to a special room of the same healthcare center where a permanent control of vital signs is carried out.; when the acute process ends, return to the unit they are usually in.

To ensure immediate help, if a limit is exceeded, the system launches an alarm that is received by the healthcare professional on their D-Trex receiver.

Telemedicine

In addition to these devices, Neat Group has also installed in the center of Malaga one of its most innovative telemedicine systems, this is the Health Corner Platform, a telemonitoring equipment of vital signs based on the electro-medical device TeleMedCare (TMC), that allows you to take measurements and consult them from anywhere with an Internet connection, via unsmartphone, computer or tablet.

Nurses, through the TeleMedCare solution, take the vital signs of registered residents. Measurements are carried out individually one or several times a day, or weekly or monthly, according to personal needs. The results of the measurements are stored in the system automatically and can be consulted and contrasted online by health professionals from anywhere, which simplifies its control and accessibility and speeds up decision-making.
