The Reality of Falls
A Global Health Challenge
Globally, 37.3 million falls requiring medical attention occur every year
Adults aged 60+ suffer the greatest number of fatal falls
Every year in the US, 2+ million older adults require emergency room treatment after a fallRedefining Fall Technology
Dele Health Tech brings a new approach to the issue of falls. Our technology provides predictive notifications before falls happen so interventions can be put in place to prevent the fall.
Our approach is based upon
- Dignified, privacy-focused technology
- Intelligent data fusion
- Open-data, silo-free solutions
Dele fall technology allows care teams to make proactive interventions upon being informed of increased fall risk, without compromising the dignity of the resident. Our solutions achieve exceptional speed, accuracy and reliability without using invasive technology such as video surveillance.
Our system achieves this by interpreting Electronic Health Data to provide individualized fall risk profiles. Notifications based on these profiles play a fundamental role in giving caregivers the information they need to make proactive interventions before falls occur.
As an organization that supports healthy aging and advocates for caregivers, Dele technology is built to interact with existing systems within a community. Integrating into existing notification systems means fewer apps, systems and silos.
When a technological solution can help prevent falls it becomes imperative from a clinical and ethical perspective to implement such tools to improve the quality of life for older adults.Dr. Lydia Manning, PhD, VP Gerontology, Dele Health Tech
