Summary

This study tested a system called KASPARD, which uses non-contact sensors to detect falls, wandering, and nighttime activity in nursing homes. The goal was to see if it could reduce falls in residents aged 65 and older who are at high risk. The system alerts staff via phone or computer when a fall happens, aiming to speed up help and prevent future falls.
