Fall detection and prevention training
When setting up ISA, MintT offers a short training course for caregivers. For two half-days, an experienced nurse from MintT accompanies and trains the nursing staff.
On the program: tools to help prevent falls as well as to use the ISA system. The nursing staff will not only be shown how to use the fall detection system on a daily basis, but also made aware of how to use the images produced as part of the prevention of falls within their institution.
The training of nursing staff, a central point in the prevention of falls
Quality managers must meet the growing demands of accreditation bodies. A training program with ISA achieves some of these requirements. How? By making a link between the register of falls and the specific actions to be implemented.
The technology developed by MintT is of a very high level. However, the real challenge was to be able to come up with the easiest solution to use. Finally, once the system is installed everything is very intuitive.
This training program was created using the latest scientific recommendations and accreditation guidelines. The training focuses on the analysis of real cases from the 4 years of ISA development.
