Inspiren initiated a pilot program at Maplewood Senior Living’s New York City luxury assisted living and memory care community, Inspir Carnegie Hill. During the pilot, AUGi’s AI capabilities prompted over 400 staff interventions with its memory care residents.
AUGi is a cognitive resident care assistant that acts like an extension of the care team, notifying of safety events such as a fall in real-time, allowing caregivers to assess and respond quickly. The platform consists of a wall-mounted automated sensor device that uses Computer Vision, AI and Bluetooth data to passively observe resident and staff behavior while maintaining privacy through de-identified imagery.
Before AUGi, staff members had no visibility into at-risk behaviors inside resident apartments. The AUGi platform provides real-time insight into a resident’s needs as well as immediate review if a fall or other event occurs.
“What it (AUGi) allows us to do for the first time is have visibility into the apartment of our most vulnerable residents. Our staff find it an indispensable tool at this point,”, shares Brian Geyser, VP Health & Wellness, Maplewood Senior Living.
