Introduction
Intel-GE Care Innovations™ QuietCare® system is intended for use in monitoring the environmental
conditions and activity (motion) of an individual living in a senior housing community. Care Innovations
QuietCare system recognizes and monitors certain patterns of activity including but not limited to bathroom
and bedroom activity, residence entry/exit, and interaction with food and medication storage.
Caregivers are provided with information and notifications about the occurrence of and changes in these
monitored activity patterns and environmental conditions. Noteworthy occurrences and changes are
communicated to caregivers through direct notifications (pager, voice alert, email) as well as a secure
Internet website.
Data from QuietCare should not be relied on as medical advice or clinical diagnosis. Caregivers should
always rely on licensed medical professionals in making all health decisions and to use the information
provided by QuietCare as a resource in that process.
Caregivers should not rely solely on the use of QuietCare for care management of clients/residents.
Caregivers should use standard care practices established within their care organization to ensure the safety
and wellness of senior clients/residents.
