Clinical intelligence,
built for skilled nursing.
Continuous, contactless monitoring in every resident room, and a clinician-signed intelligence report that slots into the DON's leadership cadence. A medical provider accountable to you, not another feed in your inbox.
Quiet clinical intelligence. Settled into every kind of senior home.
What it looks like in a skilled nursing community
A sensor in each room. A board-certified provider who signs the read. A report on your leadership cadence.
In the room
A wall-mounted radar sensor
About the size of a smoke detector. Plugged into power. Reads heart rate, respiratory rate, and movement continuously, day and night. No camera, no microphone, nothing on the resident.
At our end
A clinician who signs the read
A board-certified medical provider distills the vital-sign stream into a signed report with prioritized recommendations, and stays on the line for case-level consultation when you or your supervisors need a second read. Alert filtering happens upstream of your community.
At your DON's desk
A report on your cadence
The report lands ahead of the morning meeting where you set the day with facility leadership, on whatever cadence you prefer. Items the clinical team judges time-sensitive are escalated by phone the same hour, not buried in a feed.
Why skilled nursing communities choose us
An extra clinical layer that does not ask anything of your nursing staff.
Your floor nurses are already running. Adding an alert stream or another dashboard does not help them. We do the watching, you act on what matters.
Built on an FDA 510(k) cleared radar sensor platform. Designed for the realities of a skilled nursing community: short staffing windows, MDS pressure, survey readiness, and the resident whose subtle drift no one had time to notice.
Talk to us →A clinician on your bench, not just data in your inbox
Continuous monitoring runs in the background. A board-certified provider produces a signed read on each resident, surfacing the ones whose trajectory looks off, and stays available for prioritization calls when your nurse supervisors or unit managers flag something. Every report includes an Alerts Filtered Out section with rationale, so you have the audit trail to push back on thresholds.
The model does not depend on family installing apps, residents wearing wristbands, or your night nurse glancing at a dashboard. It depends on a sensor on the wall and an accountable clinician behind it.
By the numbers
What you get in every room.
What this costs your community
Covered for qualifying residents. Billed to Medicare, not to your community.
For qualifying residents, the clinical service is delivered and billed by Switzer Medical PC directly to Medicare. The clinical interpretation is not invoiced to your community, and the model adds no staffing line and no documentation burden to your nursing team.
Coverage depends on valid physician orders, qualifying diagnoses, and individualized resident assessment. Not all residents qualify, and coverage varies by payer mix.
One vendor, every level of care. If your community is part of a larger campus that includes assisted living, memory care, or independent living, the same monitoring relationship and the same clinical team can follow residents across the rest of the spectrum. See the life plan community page for that framing.
FAQ
Common questions from skilled nursing operators
How does the monitoring work?
A radar sensor in each resident room reads heart rate, respiratory rate, and movement continuously, 24/7. There is no camera, no wearable, and no contact with the resident. The underlying sensor platform holds FDA 510(k) clearance.
How does this fit into daily operations?
Clinical intelligence reports flow into the DON's existing leadership cadence, not into a rounds workflow. The report lands ahead of the morning meeting where the DON sets the day with facility leadership, alongside what they already receive from unit managers and nurse supervisors. There is no new documentation burden on nursing and no raw feed for the DON to interpret.
What is required of nursing staff?
Nothing in operating mode. CNAs continue their existing vital-sign workflow if the facility wishes to keep it. Nurses receive interpreted insights, not raw data to triage, and charge nurses are not asked to maintain a new dashboard or respond to a new alert system. During the one-time install window, facility staff coordinate access to mount sensors, scoped to maintenance and admissions rather than nursing.
Who is accountable for the read?
A board-certified medical provider (physician or PA) signs every report and stands behind it. The DON has a named provider they can call to prioritize a case, walk through a finding, or consult on a resident the unit managers have flagged. Reports are authored, signed, and entered into the resident's chart. Nothing is auto-generated. The system is decision support, not autonomous action; the facility retains full clinical authority at all times.
How often do reports arrive?
On the cadence your leadership meeting runs, set to your rhythm rather than a fixed schedule, anywhere from daily to weekly. A 30-minute working session walks our team through your current information flow so report cadence and format are shaped to it. Anything time-sensitive is escalated by phone the same hour.
Is it a camera? Is it private?
There is no camera, no video, no audio. The radar sensor reads physiological signals such as heart rate and respiratory rate without imaging. The system is designed to be unobtrusive and dignified for residents.
What does this cost the community?
For qualifying residents, the clinical service is billed by Switzer Medical PC directly to Medicare. The clinical interpretation is not invoiced to your community, and it adds no staffing line or documentation burden. Coverage depends on valid physician orders, qualifying diagnoses, and individualized resident assessment. Not all residents qualify, and coverage varies by payer mix.
