Care Home Technology Evaluation — Ireland

Evaluating Touchless Radar Fall Detection

Greenfield Manor is assessing touchless radar fall-detection solutions for our 56-bed facility. We are seeking technical details, integration options, pilot terms, and accuracy benchmarks to inform procurement.

Why We Are Evaluating Radar

We need a touchless, privacy-preserving solution that can detect falls reliably without creating alarm fatigue. Key concerns: accuracy under blankets, integration with our nurse call, installation footprint, and supplier support for pilots.

Clinical Safety
Reduce missed falls and false alerts that interrupt care.

Operational Fit
Minimal staff training; strong integration with existing workflows.

Privacy & Procurement
No video, supplier BAA/contracting, pilot to procurement path.

Our Evaluation Checklist

Accuracy & False Alarms
Sensitivity, FABD, night performance, occlusion handling.

Integrations
Nurse call relay (SIP/REST), EHR/HIS, syslog, webhook.

Deployment & Support
Installer training, SLA, spares, local partner support in Ireland.

What We Want from Vendors

Technical Brief

Provide SDK/API docs, sample telemetry, edge requirements, and mounting recommendations.

Pilot Proposal

30–90 day pilot SOW, per-room pricing, installation time, and success metrics (sensitivity, FABD).

Procurement Path

Supply chain timelines, warranty, local service partner if available, and commercial terms for rollout.

Planned Pilot

Target: 3–5 rooms

We prefer a constrained pilot to prove sensitivity and low false alarms before scaling. Vendor must provide on-site install and remote support during trial.

Request Vendor Demo

Procurement priorities

Integration with nurse call and EHR; predictable pricing; local support.

Privacy-first: no video retention; encrypted telemetry.

Preference for vendors who can pilot within 6 weeks and supply technical documentation.

FAQ for Vendors

Do you accept external pilots?

Yes. We evaluate vendors on accuracy, integration, and support. Pilot SOW required.

What documentation do you need?

SDK/API docs, deployment guide, sample data, privacy and security paperwork.

Who signs the contracts?

Greenfield Manor Director of Procurement and Site Manager. We require standard supplier terms and local warranty support.
