“We are very excited about this partnership and remarkable proven technology. With over 5,500 RoomMates in operation in 220 municipalities across Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Iceland, we will begin marketing and distributing the product and monitoring service in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. immediately,” stated Andrew Duncan, MetAlert Business Development Director.
MetAlert conducted extensive testing of the product and installed several units in Los Angeles. “We installed RoomMate about 6 weeks ago in a private home and both parents have told us how this product has changed their lives. They now can monitor their autistic child’s activities remotely and unobtrusively, 24x7, without always having someone with him or a camera that would violate his privacy; it’s a game changer for them,” stated Patrick Bertagna MetAlert CEO.
Some of the Remote Patient Monitoring - Roommate use cases and benefits include:
Fall prevention and detection
Detect and provide alerts about behavior that leads to falls and injuries
Reduces staffing requirements and travel to people’s homes or rooms
Improves security, sleep, and quality of life for the patient.
Anonymized supervision, no cameras
Patient safety and well-being increased
Home care – long-term and discharged patients
Care homes – memory care
Assisted living – more freedom and space for patients
Hospitals – e.g., geriatric, and orthopedic
Dylan D, a caregiver stated, “RoomMate is fantastic; I receive alerts in real-time on my phone and get a sense of how my patient is doing without having to be in the room with him or watching him through a camera. This protects his privacy while letting me know if I need to check up on him in case of an incident.”
In a time when the elderly population is growing at an unprecedented rate, companies like MetAlert are stepping up to provide innovative solutions that address the unique needs of this demographic. Metalert is driving its growth strategy through groundbreaking technologies, such as RoomMate and SmartSole plus. In the growing Senior and Home Care market, MetAlert is positioned to become a dominant player. MetAlert has ambitious plans to penetrate these high CAGR projected markets, and for a future up-listing onto a major exchange such as NASDAQ. MetAlert's rebranding strategy could not come at a better time to transform the Company into a fast-moving technology powerhouse in the healthcare space innovating new ideas and product lines for patients and caregivers alike.
CEO, Patrick Bertagna added, "We believe certain key technologies addressing this global market have tremendous implications for cutting edge growth in health care. For example, imagine how valuable aggregated data collected by RoomMate and SmartSole plus combined with artificial intelligence will be for developing predictive scenarios and medicines to better the lives of tens of millions of people.”
