An innovative solution for the Disability and Aged Care Support & Independence
HomeGuardian has developed a solution that significantly improves the safety and independence of the ageing population and participants living with disability.
In the next 30 years Australia will have over 1.4 million more people aged 85+
By 2047, there will be a 100% increase in the number of people receiving care
350,000 workers are currently in the aged care sector
Half of which will be retired in the next 15 years
There is a caregiver crisis, where the demand for carers is increasingly outweighing the supply.
The fall statistics globally indicate that more people die annually from a fall than drug use. Of those who fall, over 60% cannot get up by themselves and over 30% are left lying on the floor for over an hour injured, crying, bleeding or dying.
30% of adults over 65 experience at least one fall per year
Falls account for 40% of injury-related deaths
48% of older people fear they will fall again after an incident
The major reason for admission into Aged Care is as a result of a traumatic incident, such as a fall
When an older person falls, their hospital stay is almost twice that of older patients who are admitted for any other reason
Falls are the leading cause of hospital admissions over 65+
