Katrien Vanderlinden, director of the residential care centre Hof ten Doenberghe, talks about the major problem of falls they are facing. In order to solve this problem, they decided to turn to Mintt and its 100% efficient fall detection and prevention solution.

"To date, the residential care centre is satisfied with the results of this system. "

"Hof ten Doenberghe is the first residential care centre in Flanders to install fall detectors. Consequently, the residential care centre is also using the results of this installation to further shape its fall prevention policy. The system has gone through an extensive test phase and has currently been in use for several months. To date, the residential care centre is satisfied with the results of this system. Indeed, it has already helped it to intervene quickly on several occasions.

This results in a quick intervention time and ensures that the consequences can be minimised. An additional advantage is that the infrared images can be analysed afterwards. That way, the residential care home can better identify the causes of a fall and appropriate measures can be taken to avoid new fall incidents.”
