What is Acoustic Monitoring?
Acoustic monitoring keeps continuous watch on residents without interrupting their sleep. Leaving you free to solve problems instead of looking for them.

Typical user scenario
Local staff activate Acoustic Monitoring as they come on shift at night and deactivate it in the morning. Monitoring can be activated per ward or individually per resident. Alert calls can be handled via a central station per ward, or over multiple wards or sites.
Handling calls is easy, thanks to user-centric design of the event handler and smart messenger. Triggers for listen-in, talk back and play event can be automated or just one click away. If required, the system can also be used during the day to provide more intensive monitoring of care receivers with special needs.

Respecting privacy
Respecting residents’ privacy is of utmost importance. For this reason, appropriate usage procedures are to be established and adhered to. In-room indicators (visual and/or audio) can be used to let residents know when they are being monitored.
When explained correctly, clients and their peers welcome the use of this system as the residents are no longer needlessly disturbed during the night.
