Fort Lauderdale, Fla.—CarePredict’s innovative senior care technology recently has been chosen by several senior living providers. Companies signing multi-year contracts include:
- Columbia Cottage Assisted Living, owned by Horst Group, Inc.

CarePredict’s solution enables preventive care and enhances resident safety. It uses an award-winning smart wearable, Tempo™, to autonomously collect the activity, location, and contextual data of seniors. The system uses artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced kinematics algorithms to learn each resident’s daily activity and behavior patterns. It then alerts staff to deviations in these patterns that can signal a wide range of potential health concerns, allowing them time to intervene before the condition escalates.
Communities using CarePredict have reported as much as 40 percent lower hospitalizations, a 64 percent reduction in falls annually, and a 67 percent increase in the length of stay.
“CarePredict’s state-of-the-art technology creates the perfect balance to our home-like atmosphere at Columbia Cottage,” said Jim Burnham, president, Horst Management Services. “What is most appealing about the solution is that it is a single platform that meets the needs of residents, staff, and management.”
“At Aravilla Clearwater, we strive to raise the bar for excellence in memory care using evidence-based care and innovations,” said Robert Ross, chief development officer, Aravilla Memory Care Clearwater. “When it came to choosing a technology that would help meet our goals, CarePredict’s multifaceted solution with AI-powered wellness insights, two-way voice communication, wander management capabilities, and workforce productivity tools was the clear winner.”
“CarePredict’s solutions have been purpose-built to address specific challenges of senior care,” said Dean Mattsson,president, WellQuest Living. “Like Tempo’s two-way voice functionality that allows staff to speak directly with residents. It reassures residents that we are working on their request and helps our team to prioritize care for the most urgent needs. Using CarePredict allows us to focus on our residents’ individual needs while empowering our staff with tools to provide timely, unparalleled care.”
The Tempo wearable is packed with features that enhance the resident experience, such as RFID integration for keyless door access, concierge button, and the two-way voice communication that allows residents to speak to staff, thus helping residents receive timely assistance.
Additionally, staff can use CarePredict’s app to coordinate care and seek assistance through the app’s voice and group chat functionality. In addition, CarePredict offers workforce productivity insights to facility operators, including the time to respond, automated documentation of care services provided, and automatic tracking for time caregivers spend with residents in direct care. The use of CarePredict’s location-based insights has improved facility staff response rates by 37 percent.
CarePredict’s precise indoor location technology provides real-time and historical location insights that facilitate faster staff response times, improved care coordination, and enhance workforce distribution. Location insights are also used inCarePredict’s digital contact tracing solution, PinPoint, to help stop the spread of infections like COVID-19 in senior living communities.
“There are so many amazing features with CarePredict; it’s hard to name just one. As a Residential Assisted Living operator of a memory care home, our residents’ safety is paramount,” said Dana Robinson RN, administrator, Lighthouse Personal Care Homes. “CarePredict’s real-time geofence alerts for wandering and elopement risks keep our residents safe while maintaining their independence.”
“No matter the size of the community or the type of care being provided, there has been an increase in momentum towards being a technology-enabled community,” said Satish Movva, CEO and founder, CarePredict. “We are thrilled that CarePredict is the choice of many innovative operators in their quest to drive efficiencies and deliver superior care in these challenging times.”
