Proven to work

With ABENA Nova, residents enjoy better sleep and improved quality of life

The staff at Rise Nursing Home in Rødekro, Denmark, uses ABENA Nova to support several residents. This enhances the quality of life for each resident and enables caregivers to better plan and manage their care tasks.

“We use ABENA Nova for particular residents, such as those who often experience leakage during the night. By using ABENA Nova, we can ensure the residents a good night’s sleep without worrying about getting wet, and we do not need to disturb them by manually checking their incontinence products. This enables residents to sleep better, improving their quality of life.”

Simplicity guides the way

One of the advantages of ABENA Nova is the integrated sensor, which makes it easy and intuitive to start using the product. The incontinence product is applied as usual, and the attached clip sends information to the caregiver’s smartphone. The app also notifies the caregiver on their smartphone when the incontinence product needs to be changed.

These straightforward steps help staff eliminate concerns about leakages. Simplicity is key to successfully integrating welfare technology into a busy workday. Moreover, the intelligent incontinence product offers additional benefits:

ABENA Nova also helps assess a resident’s need for incontinence products. If we determine that a resident may require an allocation for such products, we can use ABENA Nova during the assessment process to analyze their needs and collect data that supports the case for the allocation,” states Mette’s colleague, Line Bjørnskov, Operations Manager at Rise Nursing Home.

For caregivers, ABENA Nova provides peace of mind by enabling them to deliver high-quality care. The product offers valuable insight and helps staff quickly identify and address the risk of leakage. The app, which allows staff to monitor each resident’s status, is easy and intuitive to use. With a simple color-coded system – red, yellow, green – caregivers can quickly assess each resident’s needs and determine if a change is required.
