Watching over the safety of welfare facility staff
Year by year, the shortage of staff in welfare workplaces and the night shift system are becoming more serious, leading to a normalization of "one-person response" among staff. Additionally, there are challenges such as:
- Accidents occurring during movement or while temporarily in a different room
- Difficulties in emergency responses due to language barriers with foreign staff
- Increased anxiety and psychological stress among staff
To address these issues, we have developed a simple safety support app that can automatically report incidents, even unintentionally.
What is SOS Messenger?
- Installed on smartphones, it detects shocks and falls using a gyroscope sensor.
- Information is transmitted to the smartphones of the group using SOS Messenger.
- Manual reporting (pressing the SOS button) is also possible.
- The sender's name and location (GPS information, date and time) can be shared with all team members.
- Monitoring is also possible on computers in the management office, and records can be used as work accident reports.
