Using Technology To Keep You Informed
Employing technology that helps our residents is a key element of our care philosophy. We don’t jump into trends head-first but carefully evaluate new technologies based on their potential benefits for our residents.
A vital aspect of this approach is the Bridge App, a platform for transparent communication between residents, staff, and families about care, schedules, and dining menus. This open communication is all part of our commitment to peace of mind and the health and happiness of our residents.
Wellness & Technology
We’ve invested in various technologies to make life better at Somerby Franklin, including HIPAA-compliant telehealth, Accushield visitor management systems, and online health and wellness resources.
These services enhance our approach so residents receive the comprehensive care they need.

Families are always in the know when it comes to their loved one’s daily lives.
Through the app, residents, families, and our associates can share photos, schedule appointments, and so much more.
Families are also part of their loved one’s wellness experience and the activities they enjoy from week to week.
They can keep track of upcoming events and stay aware of any health or lifestyle changes.
Families and residents can make payments easily and securely through the app.
This feature makes it easier for families to keep up with their loved one’s finances while residents focus on living life to the fullest.
Fall Detection for Residents
Fall detection is a crucial functionality designed to provide immediate alerts in the event of a fall, providing support when needed.
World-leading AI video technology to detect and help prevent falls, keeping residents safer and providing greater peace of mind for families.
This approach ensures that residents are afforded an extra layer of security and privacy, offering peace of mind not only to them but also to their families.
Electronic Medical & Health Records
Emergency medical and health records help us monitor resident health information and are readily accessible and efficiently managed.
When a resident’s care plan changes, these updates are automatically added to their electronic health records, keeping our team up-to-date with their needs.
By reducing the administrative burden on our caregivers, we empower them to focus more on what truly matters—providing compassionate and individualized care.
