Fall Detection for Senior Living CCM with August Health
Fall Detection brings a distinct advantage to CCM programs in senior living communities. Sensor-based fall detection uses radar presence sensing combined with movement pattern analysis to identify falls in real-time, even when no one witnesses the event. Combined with CCN Health's August Health integration, residents benefit from continuous monitoring without additional care staff burden.
Why Fall Detection for Senior Living
Senior Living communities serve independent and assisted living residents aged 65+ who value autonomy while benefiting from proactive health monitoring. Fall Detection is particularly relevant because:
- Detects falls even when no staff member is present
- Reduces time-to-response for fall events
- No wearable pendant that residents forget or refuse to use
How Fall Detection Works
