“To accomplish this, we needed to decide on what sensors would give us the best opportunity to understand the full context of clinical situations. This was a challenging process because we always had to keep cost in mind and in some cases, it was hard to justify implementing sensing technology that was future looking. With that said, our goal as a company is to protect patients and safeguard staff so it ultimately was our mission that drove our development decisions.
As for how they plan to roll out the technology in other hospitals, Coyne told OTW, “First and foremost, it’s about making healthcare organizations successful and helping them to meet their goals. We are here to reduce adverse events, shed light on patient/resident behavior, and automate manual activity like charting and documentation. If we can do this consistently, our strategy is to make the industry aware of these successes along with our longer-term vision and grow organically within the industry. To prepare for this growth we have secured a number of partnerships to help us with installation and clinical implementation of our technology. This was an important step to ensure we have the resources to implement with speed and efficiency.”
The year 2019 was a banner period for Inspiren as the company received more than 20 international innovation awards for its hybrid sensing computer vision, IoT, and audio/video monitoring platform from organizations including TIME, Edison, SXSW, Fast Company, and the American Nurses Association.
