About the job
Catch clinical deterioration early — before it turns into hospital transfers, falls, or move-outs. Sleepiz One+ monitors heart rate, respiration, and bed presence contactlessly, giving your team the visibility to intervene earlier, not harder.
A 2-minute overview of contactless vital sign monitoring in a real senior care environment.
A single wall-mounted device continuously measures bed presence, respiration rate, and heart rate in adult patients at rest or during sleep — with zero contact required.
The Sleepiz One+ sensor mounts discreetly on a wall, angled toward the resident's bed. No patches, no wearables, no disruption to the resident's routine.
Continuous-wave radar measures whether a resident is in bed and detects body movement — passively and without any contact.
Sleepiz One+ measures respiration rate and heart rate in adult patients at rest or during sleep, through bedding and clothing, with no wearables required.
Overnight vital sign data and presence logs are accessible to healthcare professionals via the Sleepiz cloud software for retrospective review and patient management.
Built for senior care environments where discretion, simplicity, and accurate monitoring are non-negotiable.
Continuously detects whether a resident is in bed and monitors body movement — passively and without contact.
Continuous measurement of breathing rate in adult residents at rest or during sleep — no wearables required.
Non-contact heart rate measurement through bedding and clothing in adult residents at rest or during sleep.
When bed presence is no longer detected, care staff can be notified to support routine resident check-ins.
Review changes in respiration rate, heart rate, and sleep patterns over time via the Sleepiz web dashboard.
Clinically validated medical-grade device. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
Standard Wi-Fi connectivity. Wall-mounted and operational within 15 minutes — no IT team required.
Access overnight vital sign data and presence records for every resident from one centralized web application.
The financial risk isn't lack of effort — it's late detection. Sleepiz stabilizes residents earlier with continuous overnight monitoring, protecting occupancy and margin.
Falls create staff burden, insurance risk, documentation load, and burnout. Even a modest reduction stacks financially. Sleepiz detects the moment a resident exits the bed — in time to provide support, before a fall becomes a cascade.
Instead of reacting to delirium, acute decline, or EMS calls, your team sees increased respiratory rate, restlessness, and sleep disruption — subtle instability that precedes escalation.
With automated overnight monitoring, night staff can focus on hands-on care instead of routine check-rounds. This gives your team visibility into the night — without extra staffing, without workflow burden.
You're already spending heavily on staffing and care. The financial risk isn't lack of effort — it's late detection. Sleepiz only needs to prevent about five escalation cascades per year to cover its cost. Everything beyond that increases EBITDA.
See increased respiratory rate, restlessness, and sleep disruption before they become delirium, acute decline, or EMS calls.
Each hospitalization triggers operational chaos, family concern, and higher likelihood of move-out. Even a few prevented per year make a measurable difference.
Falls create staff burden, insurance risk, and documentation load. Even a modest reduction stacks financially across the building.
Each avoidable move-out costs $6,000–$8,000 even if you refill the bed. Protecting occupancy is the most direct path to protecting margin.
"Prevent a handful of avoidable cascades per year — and the system pays for itself."
"It gives us visibility into the night — so we can intervene earlier, not harder."
