Safety. Security. Confidence. Freedom. Do you want these words to describe the atmosphere surrounding the staff and residents of your senior living facility? ZulaFly’s Real-Time Locating System (RTLS) software is meant to take everything that is exceptional about your senior living facility, and make it even better. Below are five ways ZulaFly enhances these operations.

‍

1. Contact Tracing Report Drives Safety for Senior Care Facilities

Are you able to provide a minute by minute report of who and where staff and residents have spent time with while in your facility?  ZulaFly’s Contact Tracing report can tell you in a matter of seconds which staff, residents and any equipment, that an infected individual has been in contact with, where at, and how long.  This helps facilities quickly know who should be tested, and equipment that should be cleaned.

ZulaFly understands the power of knowledge and invaluable information, which is why we have committed substantial time and energy into building a historical reporting mechanism that enhances the way your business functions, while helping to protect the facilities staff and residents in its most crucial times.

2. Temperature & Compliance Monitoring Keeps Medications at a Safe Temperature

Rapid deployment of strict medication and vaccine regimens can simply be a way of life during a pandemic in senior living facilities. This means the refrigerators that store these medications need to be working properly, in the desired ranges, and stocked properly at all times.

ZulaFly’s temperature monitoring solution ensures the proper staff members are alerted the moment a device is out of range, or an alert setup on a delay, allowing the device to go back in range after the door is shut, for example. Whether the problems occur in the morning, afternoon, or in the middle of the night, the alerts can be quickly responded to, preventing what could be thousands of dollars’ worth of spoilage during a time when vaccine cannot be wasted.  Unlimited number of escalations help ensure that the event is resolved along with an alert scheduler so the alert gets to the right person at all times.

3. Keep Track of Assets Within a Senior Living Facility

What are some of the more valuable pieces of equipment your facility utilizes, especially in a crisis? Are there items that tend to go lost or missing, never to return? Are you working on a large campus where assets are more spread out, making it hard to keep track of what is actually where, especially when it is needed immediately?

The tag-and-locate functionality of ZulaFly ensures any important asset can be located, virtually in an instant. Additionally, when equipment is tagged, staff know if it has been used and needs to be cleaned before going back into circulation.

4. Keeping Residents of Senior Living and Retirement Homes Safe

Having a location-based, real-time understanding of each resident allows staff members to ensure the facility is making good on its commitment to provide a safe and secure environment as possible when unforeseen circumstances occur.

Where within the building is a resident currently located? Is anyone mistakenly wandering off to an area of the building they shouldn’t be? What if one of the residents gets outside and becomes confused? How can residents easily and quickly call for help in an emergency from anywhere in the facility?

These are questions ZulaFly can answer. Not only do staff members have location-based information for any resident wearing a badge, these residents can also use the button on their badge to send a location-based alert whenever they’re in a situation that requires help.

5. Real-Time Notifications Keep Staff Members Operating Efficiently in a Crisis

Staff members working in senior living facilities are a special type of person. Patience, kindness, compassion, and perhaps most importantly, attentiveness, are all attributes critical to these staff members doing their best work.

While real-time notifications have an incredibly tangible benefit for residents, ZulaFly also equips staff members with real-time capabilities that allow them to stay focused on being proficient at their job.

For example: In larger, more spread-out facilities, staff members can have moments of isolation where it may be difficult to find someone nearby if they need extra assistance with a resident. Perhaps it may be as simple as helping someone get out of bed, or assisting with medication. These are moments where the staff badge can quickly alert the rest of the team that assistance is needed and where.  Since staff cannot be everywhere at once, they are proactively notified if a resident leaves their room in the middle of the night, or is near an exit they should not be.

Throughout the day-to-day happenings in a senior living facility, moments of resident frustration can occur from time to time. Whatever the source of tension may be, ZulaFly’s silent alert system allows staff reinforcements to converge on the scene, without drawing extra attention to it. Historical reporting can also provide resident’s family information on staff to resident care being provided and resident to resident interactions along with where time has been spent on a daily basis.
