Tempus: The Claiborne’s Signature Dementia Care Program

Tempus is The Claiborne’s dynamic and engaging approach to providing care for our residents living with dementia. Dementia is an umbrella term for several diseases affecting memory, other cognitive abilities and behavior, such as Alzheimer’s, Lewy Body, etc…. The name Tempus is Latin for time. Individuals living with dementia often live in their own reality, on their own timeline. In Tempus, that’s where we will meet them.

Program Pillars

Innovative Technology

Ensuring Safety of Your Loved Ones

You might think that falls, ER visits and hospitalizations are an unexpected, inevitable result of getting older. You might think it’s especially true for those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia. But the truth is that many of these events are frequently predictable and avoidable. Changes in the way you walk or how you sleep may indicate an increased risk of illness or injury. With the right access to detailed, accurate and timely information, we can see what’s happening sooner and take steps to prevent a potentially tragic event from occurring.

Proactive care improves the safety of your loved ones with predictive analytics including:

Heart Rate

Respiratory Rate

Bed Restlessness

Gait

Motion

Activity

25 %

More than 1 in 4 people, 65 and older, fall each year

One out of 5 falls result in serious injury, such as head trauma

SafelyYou Combines World-leading technology with Clinical Expertise

SafelyYou Respond™ supports its breakthrough AI video technology with a remote team of MDs, RNs, OTs, and PTs. So, when a fall occurs, expert clinicians can help on-site staff understand how to help keep it from happening again. This world-leading technology detects over 99% of on-the-ground events, and the fall video enables our care staff to better assess each fall’s severity and get your loved one the right care faster. Fall experts help ensure that repeat falls don’t occur. It means your loved one stays safer and out of the ER.
