Clinical intelligence,
built for memory care.
Continuous vitals without a device on the body. Built for residents who cannot tolerate wearables or reliably report symptoms.
Quiet clinical intelligence. Settled into every kind of senior home.
What it looks like in a memory care community
Nothing on the resident. Nothing your staff has to chase.
In the room
A sensor on the wall, not on the resident
Residents who pull off wristbands or refuse pendants are still monitored. Nothing is attached, nothing has to be charged, nothing has to be put back on.
At our end
Clinicians who know the population
Memory care residents often cannot report a symptom. Our clinical team reads the data with that in mind: changes in respiratory pattern, nighttime activity, and movement that family or staff would not see firsthand.
At your director's desk
A timely read on each resident
What has changed recently. Who is sleeping less. Who is moving differently. Concrete enough for your director to bring into a family conversation or a physician call.
Why memory care directors choose us
The monitoring model that does not depend on the resident.
Memory care is the place wearables fail first. Wristbands come off. Pendants get hidden. Patches are pulled. Apps live on phones the resident does not use.
SwitzerHealth was built for exactly this. The radar sensor reads vitals from across the room, with nothing attached to the resident. Nothing for your staff to put back on. Nothing for a family member to set up on a phone.

Residents experience nothing different. There is no new device in their room they would notice or try to remove. The sensor sits unobtrusively and reads vitals from a few feet away.
For families, the relief is concrete: continuous monitoring of a parent who cannot reliably say how they feel, watched by a licensed clinical team, summarized on a regular cadence.
How coverage works in memory care
Covered by Medicare for qualifying residents.
In memory care communities, SwitzerHealth's clinical services are delivered for qualifying residents under the care management code families. Coverage depends on valid physician orders, qualifying diagnoses, and individualized resident assessment.
Consent in memory care is handled with the resident's legal representative or POA as part of the standard intake. The same documented consent process applies whether your community is freestanding memory care or a memory care wing inside a larger campus.
About the consent process. Family-facing summaries are available where authorized by the resident's legal representative as part of the consent. The clinical relationship lives with Switzer Medical PC; your community staff is not required to act as a clinical intermediary.
FAQ
Common questions from memory care directors
How does this work for residents who can't tolerate wearables?
This is the population the model was built for. The contactless radar sensor reads heart rate, respiratory rate, and movement continuously with no device on the body and no camera in the room. Residents who pull off wristbands or refuse pendants are still monitored.
Is there a camera in the room?
No. The sensor reads physiological signals such as heart rate and respiratory rate without imaging. No video, no audio, no recording of any image.
How is the monitoring covered in memory care?
For qualifying residents the service is covered by Medicare under the care management code families. Coverage depends on valid physician orders, qualifying diagnoses, and individualized resident assessment.

A licensed clinical team at Switzer Medical PC reviews continuous monitoring data and produces a timely clinical intelligence report for your director.
