Originating in 2015 as the doctoral research of CEO George Netscher—and inspired by his own family's experience with Alzhemier's disease—SafelyYou utilizes artificial intelligence to detect falls with unprecedented accuracy and provides fall video for root-cause analysis, empowering care staff to help prevent future falls. This innovation is combined with insights from SafelyYou fall experts, shaping a first-of-its-kind fall detection and prevention program. Specifically designed for memory care, or care for residents with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, SafelyYou provides better support for unwitnessed falls by allowing for more informed ER decision-making. Today, this proven technology is successfully deployed in numerous communities in North America.
