WHY KNOWFALLS SOLUTIONS ARE PERSONAL
Picture
A 76-year-old female just had routine laparoscopic surgery to remove her gall bladder, required an overnight stay. According to her adult son and daughter who live out of state, the patient lives alone and has just started having difficulties with balance.

In the early morning hours, the patient is confused with her surroundings and tries to make it to the bathroom on her own. The hospital’s current monitoring system does not alert the patient care team in enough time to prevent a fall. Facial injury, a broken hip, and fractured wrist result. Subsequent surgeries and weeks spent in a rehabilitation center take a toll on the patient and her family. The patient is now depressed and showing signs of dementia. Her adult children are challenged with how to best care for their mother going forward, both financially and logistically, considering her advancing physical and emotional limitations.

It is precisely these circumstances that inspired launching KnowFalls. The founders recognized first-hand the consequences of falls with their parents and in-laws and asked, what if there was a “smarter thinking” solution for reducing falls? What if hospitals and rehab facilities could eliminate the human error in anticipating falls? What if artificial intelligence (AI) technology could be used to identify movements of an impending fall and alert caregivers in real time? What if falls prevention technology could result in significant financial savings for hospitals and, most importantly, in improved quality of life for patients and families? What if other families could be spared the heartache of making tough decisions of how to care for a loved one?
