Artificial Intelligence and Violence in Healthcare
Hospitals are turning to ambient listening to be more proactive in protecting patients and staff.
Video | Virtual Observation at Alberta Health System
With over 18,000 patient observation hours logged during the University of Alberta Hospital’s Pulmonary Ward trial, attendants detected more than 500 incidents when a patient inadvertently removed their oxygen tube. Quick intervention in these events led to a significant reduction in ICU transfers and deaths on the unit. The number of patient falls on the unit also significantly decreased.
We were thrilled to be recognized as a 2026 Black Book Market Research award winner for Highest Client Satisfaction in Telehealth Infrastructure Solutions. The win reflects the feedback of healthcare organizations using the Caregility Connected Care™ Platform to power virtual care, support bedside teams, and scale smarter care delivery enterprise-wide. Thank you to our customers!
