“Peregrine is committed to fostering a new paradigm of care for our seniors and WellAWARE has proven it is capable of helping us deliver on that goal,” said Bob Collins, Director of Operations for Peregrine Health Management Company. “We have worked extensively with WellAWARE at our Landing at the Shoreline property where we utilized WellAWARE in part, due to its ability to evaluate sleep quality within our resident population. The sleep study results speak for themselves – WellAWARE is able to truly measure quality of sleep and not just presence in bed. We were able to detect a broad range of resident issues due to identified sleep disturbances. We’re excited about being one of the first to market this technology. It will help us provide a new standard of care focused on prevention and wellness.”

By responding proactively to trends, that may indicate emerging health conditions, caregivers can improve wellness related outcomes.
