Big Innovation Conversation: Covid & Managing risk of deterioration in care homes

The Big Innovation Conversation is a series of bite-sized learning opportunities showcasing innovations and discussing topics and challenges across health and care.

Care homes residents are some of the most frail and vulnerable people in our society, often meaning that these individuals can be at significantly greater risk from the impact of illness and physical deterioration; this is demonstrated by the devastating impact that COVID-19 has had on many care homes across the country.
 
Early identification, escalation and appropriate treatment of deterioration is key to improving outcomes for these individuals.

This webinar featured three companies demonstrating their products designed to manage deterioration and the risk of falls in a care home setting, followed by an opportunity for our audience to put questions to our guests.

We heard from the following companies:

• Safe Steps
• Rinicare
• Sidqam
