Frost & Sullivan Applauds STANLEY Healthcare's Future-Ready and Industry-Leading Solutions for the S

Based on its recent analysis of the market for technology solutions for senior living communities, Frost & Sullivan recognizes STANLEY Healthcare with the 2017 Global Company of the Year Award. STANLEY Healthcare has established a leadership position in safety and security solutions for senior living, including emergency call, wander management, staff security, facility security, and temperature monitoring. The company is now leveraging the technologies of the internet of things (IoT) and analytics to deliver greater value to its clients in an increasingly challenging environment.

Among STANLEY Healthcare's recent innovations is the next-generation WanderGuard^® BLUE wander management solution, which leverages Bluetooth Low Energy and a mobile application for programming. Its Arial^® solution has evolved from wireless emergency call to become a comprehensive platform for resident safety and security, integrating a wide range of other systems and offering an analytics dashboard for communities to benchmark and measure performance. Additionally, STANLEY is working to realize the 'Smart Resident Room' concept integrating several IoT sensors to enable senior living communities to monitor residents unobtrusively while they go about their daily activities.

"Designing solutions that are appealing to residents is an approach that helps STANLEY Healthcare differentiate its solutions for the senior living space," said Industry Analyst Siddharth Shah at Frost & Sullivan. "Empowering senior living communities with automated task and process solutions through the use of digital technologies helps them provide more personal care to more residents based on a close understanding of their behavior and needs, which will enable communities to respond effectively to the growing elderly population."

All of STANLEY Healthcare's solutions are supported by the By Your Side™ customer care commitment, which combines a range of services at each stage of the customer voyage to ensure that every customer achieves success and realizes the full value of their investment.
