As staffing shortages and rising care demands intensify, senior living communities must move beyond good intentions and adopt tools that prioritize senior safety and optimize efficiency. Litum’s Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) empower assisted living, senior care, and long – term care facilities to proactively manage operations, enhance senior care, and maintain a competitive edge in a challenging healthcare landscape.
Enhancing Safety Without Compromising Freedom
In memory care and dementia units, senior care is a daily priority – especially when it comes to preventing wandering and elopement. Traditional solutions like locked doors and alarm mats can be restrictive, disruptive, and reactive. Litum’s Real-Time Location System (RTLS) offers a more proactive, respectful approach.
With Litum, facilities can strike the right balance between protection and personal freedom by:
- Creating Safe Zones: Use geofencing to define customized boundaries and receive instant alerts when residents approach or cross into restricted areas – before incidents occur.
- Identifying Risk Early: Detect when individuals with a history of wandering head toward doors, elevators, or unsafe zones, enabling preemptive intervention.
- Triggering Smart Responses: Automatically activate access control or door-locking protocols for at-risk residents without disrupting others’ movement.
- Coordinating Staff Action: Route alerts directly to the appropriate team members’ devices, ensuring rapid, efficient responses when every second matters.
- Preserving Dignity: Allow residents to move freely within safe zones, maintaining their autonomy and reducing the need for intrusive oversight.
- Reducing Stress for Everyone: Calm environments with fewer false alarms ease anxiety for staff, residents, and families alike.
Litum’s wander management capabilities are built to help prevent incidents -not just react to them- so your team can focus on care, not crisis control.
Optimizing Care Teams
When care teams don’t have real-time data, decisions are delayed – and residents may wait too long for help. Litum’s RTLS provides live visibility into the location and movement of staff and residents throughout the facility.
This insight allows supervisors and administrators to:
- Balance workloads across shifts
- Identify workflow bottlenecks
- Reduce unnecessary travel between wings
- Shorten response times to alerts or resident needs
With fewer delays and more informed staff coordination, you foster a more responsive and supportive environment for both staff and residents.
Stop Searching. Start Caring.
Staff time is too valuable to waste looking for equipment. Yet in many communities, wheelchairs, walkers, mobile monitors, and specialty beds are often misplaced or inconsistently tracked between departments.
Litum’s Asset Tracking feature helps teams:
- Instantly locate critical equipment across the facility
- Prevent unnecessary purchases by providing real – time visibility into existing inventory
- Improve device utilization and maintenance tracking
The result? Care teams spend more time with residents and less time searching through storage closets.
Ready to See What’s Possible?
Workforce shortages and safety concerns aren’t going away. But with the right technology, you can turn those challenges into opportunities.
Litum’s RTLS brings visibility, control, and peace of mind to senior care – giving your team the confidence and clarity they need to deliver outstanding care, day after day.
