Mentorage®: The Different Features Each automatic detection module has been designed with staff of the nursing homes and Alzheimer’s units, to address potentially dangerous scenarios for their guests. MentorAge® features several “core” modules (in orange in the picture) as well as “optional” modules (in blue in the picture) that provide more advances Ambient Assisted Leaving solutions. What Our Customers Say Our customers are often operating in complex conditions, trying to strike a balance between the need for high-quality assistance for their guests and the rising prices resulting such high-quality services, with families asking for the best care for their loved ones. Furthermore, staff turnover is often quite high, mainly due to high physical and psychological stress. Lastly, at night, to reduce costs, medical staff is not always present while nursing staff is kept to a minimum level to limit costs. Our customers say that, within such a complex scenario, MentorAge® helps create a safer and more relaxed environment, promoting adoption of non- pharmacologic approaches (e.g. reducing use of sleeping drugs) and reassuring residents and staff with its “mentoring” presence. This is the example of Château des Ollières, a state of the art facility in Nice, France of the Korian group (www. korian.fr/) , which has decided to install MentorAge® in their 14 rooms Alzheimer’s unit in order to maximise protection to their guests. MentorAge® blends with the policy of Château des Ollières, which aims at ensuring individualized care plans, providing daily support based on respect of the elderly person, their habits, their wishes and their rhythm of life. The experience will be framed in the context of a Quality Enhancing Process whereby, in a collaborative way, Nively, owner of MentorAge®, and Korian will analyse the results of the use of the solution in order to identify further improvements and ultimately ensure higher comfort and safety for the guests of the infrastructure.
