We have combined our excellent care services with the innovative Healthsense eNeighbor® system to provide an unmatched level of care to meet your needs.
On-Campus- Assistive Remote Monitoring through Healthsense is standard in all Assisted Living Housing and optional in Independent Living Housing throughout the NRC campus
Off-Campus- Assistive Remote Monitoring through Healthsense is available to you in the privacy of your own home.
Off Campus Installation
A one-time installation fee will apply. Included in this fee, a registered nurse will visit the client to gather medical information and history, and to educate the client and/or family member to the Healthsense services. Discussion of the needs of the individual with client and/or family members will determine the recommended system. The equipment will be ordered, when the sensors/monitors are delivered, a staff person from Northfield Retirement Community will call to set up an installation date and time that is convenient for client/family. Internet service is required to do installation. Client and/or family member needs to be aware of internet options in your area.
