Feasibility of Ambient Sensing Technology for Fall Detection in People with Cognitive Changes
Ambient sensing technology for fall detection is a feasible and acceptable solution when supported by tailored escalation protocols. The inclusion of a "circle of friends" approach ensures a personalized response, reducing reliance on 911 and addressing concerns about unnecessary interventions. Future research will further refine these protocols and validate their effectiveness in diverse care settings.
