Why Prevention Matters Now

Aging Population

Growing demographic pressures require smarter, more efficient care solutions. According to Age UK there are now 22 million people aged over 50 in England, equivalent to two in five of the total population and projected to increase further.

Resource Constraints

Adult social care services are struggling hugely to meet demand with overstretched budgets and understaffed workforces. The Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS) estimate that between 400,000 and 500,000 people have been waiting for an assessment, review, direct payment or care package at any one time since 2021.

Changing Needs

Modern care demands have evolved beyond traditional reactive approaches to emphasise proactive, technology enabled solutions that promote independence while integrating preventative health monitoring, personalised support, and community engagement to maintain quality of life for an aging population.

How Andi Enables Proactive & Preventative Care

Transform your care delivery from reactive to proactive and preventative with intelligent monitoring that spots subtle changes before they become critical issues, Andi kickstarts the proactive care processes by sharing relevant information with the right people in the service user’s care network, at the right time.

What is a Monitoring Rule?
Monitoring rules consist of a set of criteria that must either be met, or not met – they are what drive the creation of alarms and alerts and decide who will be notified.


Turn Data into Action

Beyond Simple Alerts

Combine multiple data points from multiple peripherals to create sophisticated, context-aware monitoring.

Flexible Alert Routing

Direct alerts to family, friends, or care teams as well as communicating with ARC platforms.

Early Warning System

Spot potential issues before they become emergencies, so that care becomes proactive and preventative.


Levels of Monitoring Rules

System Level Rules
Pre-built rules for common scenarios - ready to use instantly. For example "Unusual night activity".

User Level Rules
Customised rules tailored to individual needs. For example “Room temperature below 17°C" or "Missed medication time"

Easy Customisation
Modify existing rules or create new ones with just a few clicks.


How Monitoring Rules Work

1

Select Rule Type

Choose from pre-built rules or create a custom one.

2

Set Parameters

Adjust thresholds and conditions to match individual needs.

3

Choose Recipients

Define who receives alerts, in what way and when.

Andi provides the flexibility to direct alerts to the right responder at the right time for each service user, whether that's care staff, family members, or emergency services, this can be customised for each and every situation.

Andi allows you to combine peripherals from many brands. This means you can:

  • Craft customised care packages by selecting the ideal peripherals that match each service user
  • Combine different types of sensors for comprehensive monitoring
  • Detect potential issues earlier by combining peripherals to get a full picture of the situation.

Meet Sarah

Sarah is a 68-year-old with type 2 diabetes. Her care team set up the monitoring rules to keep track of the following:

  • Regular blood glucose readings from her glucose monitor
  • Kitchen activity using smart sensors

One day, Sarah hadn't checked her blood glucose reading or used the kitchen by the usual time of 11am. The monitoring rule set up to track regular kitchen activity and glucose reading created an alert which notified Sarah's daughter by text, who then called to check in. She found Sarah feeling unwell and confused - early signs of hypoglycaemia. Thanks to this early intervention, Sarah received prompt care, avoiding a potential emergency.
