REMi non-invasive aged care resident monitoring and alert system

Sleeptite have partnered with RMIT and Sleepeezee Bedding Australia to develop REMi, which will support residents and the care workforce in the aged care sector. This technology is set to revolutionise the Aged Care sector by improving the current carer workflows. By implementing a continuous night time monitoring and alert system, carers can prioritising alerts according to resident status. The current gold-standard night time monitoring process carers follow is an hourly door check, which can be invasive to the resident, and can be a waste of time for the carer. Due to REMi's continuous monitoring, carers would not have to conduct these checks, freeing up their time to assist residents that need help. REMi is the result of an exceptional research and industry collaboration with significant translation of research into a commercially viable product which will result in better health, economic and community outcomes locally and internationally. The commercialisation of REMi exhibits how industry and research entities can work superbly together to create innovations that will deliver real and enduring value to the community of Australia and beyond.

Operating an R&D Office and Laboratory at RMIT - supported by government funding programs

Sleeptite's patented stretchable sensors, combined with the techniques developed through our Round 5 Cooperative Research Centers Project (CRC-P) (2018-21) have delivered the functional research prototype – establishing the model for the REMi product. The close collaboration between Sleeptite, RMIT and Sleepeezee continues the product development journey through an Australian Manufacturing Growth Center (AMGC) Commercialisation Fund grant (2021-present) to up-scale REMi hardware and electronics for commercial readiness and provide in-house sensor manufacturing capability and infrastructure – to deliver a commercial first-generation consumer product that can be manufactured at scale. From September 2023, with funding support from the Victorian Medical Research Acceleration Fund (VMRAF), our collaboration will embark on a 2-year project to transform our validated and trialled technology from a consumer care product into a medical grade device to determine and manage risk of pressure injury and guide patient-centred care approaches.

SIRIUS adjustable bed

We talked to nurses, carers and aged care facility managers who desired a stylish bed with floor-line capabilities and an advanced height function. Sirius is the ultimate all-in-one customisable aged care bed suitable for residential aged care facilities, retirement homes and assisted living solutions. Sirius is the only bed in the market that meets the floor-line (<200mm) to OH&S height standard (>750mm) with a column-less design.
