App integration supports efficient decision making for care teams in multiple settings
Leading provider of digital solutions for the health and care industry, Everon Group, has announced the launch of Night Owl: a discreet digital visual care system with advanced AI technology providing round-the-clock monitoring while supporting safety and independence.
The new system actively recognises key events such as falls, bed or chair occupancy and room exits without the need for additional sensors or wearable devices. Designed by HEPRO, the digital supervision solution has been integrated into the Everon EMA app, enabling caregivers to identify and respond to potential safety and wellbeing risks quickly and effectively, without the alert being routed through an alarm receiving centre (ARC).
Through the app, caregivers can receive and manage Night Owl alerts, communicate via two-way speech and respond directly to events, streamlining workflows and reducing the need to move between multiple systems. Night Owl provides 24-hour digital support that helps providers deliver the right care, at the right time, with minimal disruption. Inherent system security and automatic pixelation ensure privacy and protection at all times, giving caregivers only the essential visual context without revealing identifiable details.
The solution, which is available in the UK, Sweden and Finland through Everon’s regional teams, represents a major step forward in the company’s mission to deliver smart, interoperable technologies that empower care teams and enhance the quality of life for individuals in supported living, care home and housing settings.
Peter Kerly, Managing Director at Everon UK, said: “Night Owl represents the next evolution in intelligent, preventative care. It’s an unobtrusive system that works seamlessly within our connected Ecosystem to deliver real-time insights without compromising dignity or independence.
“By integrating digital supervision into the EMA, we’re creating a single, interoperable environment for proactive care - offering reassurance for families, efficiency for providers and safety for residents.”
Night Owl provides 24-hour supervision that protects both independence and privacy. By using discreet infra-red cameras combined with AI intelligence and only sharing essential information with authorised caregivers, the system ensures that individuals remain safe, supported and respected.
Geir Tore Jakobsen, CEO at HEPRO, added: “We are very pleased to announce the expansion of our partnership with Everon Group into UK, Sweden and Finland. This launch is a strong validation of the value we create together and is fully aligned with our long-term strategy to make high-quality, digital health care solutions available to more people, regardless of where they live.
“Through this cooperation, people in these countries will now be able to benefit from the newest digital supervision technology, Night Owl. We are proud of what we have achieved with Everon Group so far, and we look forward to developing this cooperation even further in the years to come.”
Everon’s unique technology and services together create an advanced Ecosystem that empowers health, care and housing providers to turn data into decisions and deliver better care. Its recent partnership with specialists in behavioral monitoring and care analytics, Howz, delivered a market-first technology platform and reporting suite that empowers faster, better-informed decision making that improve lives and drive care efficiencies.
