Assessing a resident’s physical health and functional capacity is an essential part of care work and the implementation
of good care – and it can be improved. Elma® Detection provides real time, high-quality information to support decision-
making and enhances the alignment of resident’s needs and services. Insights into sleep patterns, activity levels, and
bathroom visits help monitor residents’ well-being, while early identification of changes enables timely and proactive care.

This information is especially important after a resident has moved into her/his new environment, which in many cases
change the resident’s circadian rhythm with restlessness, stress, and nervousness, which is not always seen during the
night hours.

Elma® resolves many unanswered questions on residents’ behaviour, especially residents with dementia, i.e. anxiety,
depression and stress.

    Elma® reveals if the resident is                                     Bed behaviour and motion
