ForeAider was established in July 2018. The company was mainly founded by caregivers, physicians and senior engineers. Several founding members felt that they encountered many difficulties and emotional conflicts in the process of taking care of their elders, and even discovered many regrets and misunderstandings after their elders passed away. And everyone will get old, and no one wants to ask for help when they are old, and many elders are not willing to wear wearable devices with them to sleep. We hope to provide thoughtful care services without changing your original living habits. Fulfilling filial piety becomes simple and allows the elderly to be truly respected. Based on this belief, a care aid tool - ForeAider-Z - that is "non-wearable and suitable for most mattresses" is developed to assist caregivers.
Looking at the sensing modules of most smart mattresses today, they need to be purchased with a specific mattress, which is not only more expensive but also requires consideration of the placement of the original mattress. With the design of the accessories under the ForeAider-Z mattress, customers do not need to consider purchasing additional mattresses of special specifications in the future. Only one ForeAider-Z can be used for common mattresses, easily turning an ordinary bed into a smart bed. goal. In addition, ForeAider-Z's micro-pressure transmission design not only eliminates electronic parts on the mattress contact surface, but also makes it easy to fix and not easily damaged. In addition, users do not need to worry about possible effects on the body due to continuous electromagnetic waves irradiating the chest during long-term use.
According to statistics, the place with the highest incidence of falls among the elderly is in the dormitory, but we cannot always be by their side. Whenever the elders get up and leave the bed, they may fall due to postural hypotension or unsteady steps. ForeAider-Z can adjust the alarm time according to your needs and notify you in time for inspection when the elders are at risk of falling. . In addition, when many elders are bedridden, they are sometimes unable to effectively call their caregivers due to illness and frailty. After using ForeAider-Z, as long as the elders tap the bedside, it can be converted into an active calling signal to notify the caregiver to come for assistance.
Furthermore, as the body ages, the sleep cycles of older adults become shorter. Sleep quality may be affected by snoring, respiratory arrest, night coughing or asthma while sleeping. ForeAider-Z can continuously and stably record the status and quality of the elder's sleep. Although the caregiver cannot be by the elder's side all the time, he or she can easily understand the elder's sleep quality and the elder's psychological stress state through the mobile phone last night. In addition, caregivers can also use the historical record query function to understand the length of sleep cycles and changes in sleep quality, and compare possible abnormal tendencies from the time series.
ForeAider-Z will also launch a special version for nursing institutions in the near future. In addition to the aforementioned functions, it will also add auxiliary care services required by other nursing institutions in the future. ForeAider hopes to provide a bridge of communication between caregivers and those being cared for without changing the original environment, so as to gradually realize the founding philosophy of "helping others without fault, helping others without blame".
