MariCare’s Elma^® Detection radar solution has been selected for the modern care facility Fuglsangsø Plejecenter in Herning. The care center is known for its modern elderly care environment and focus on resident well-being, safety, and high-quality daily care. The pilot was launched in the resident rooms of the dementia ward in November 2023, and following positive results, the system was permanently implemented in 2025. In spring 2026, use of the system was expanded through a pilot project on the somatic care ward.

“This technology helps us support residents at the right time without unnecessarily disturbing their daily lives. At the same time, it gives us better insight into sleep, movement, and well-being, improving safety without compromising residents’ privacy.”
- Katja Søgaard F. Pedersen
