August Health and Sage have partnered to automate data sharing between clinical records and life-safety systems.
Through this new integration, any change in resident status—including admissions, discharges, transfers, and level-of-care updates—recorded in August Health automatically flows into Sage. As such, care teams no longer need to manually reconcile records across disparate systems or worry about manual data entry errors during a room change.
"Accurate census data is the foundation everything else depends on, and that's especially true for the systems your residents rely on to call for help,” says Erez Cohen, Co-founder, August Health. “By keeping August Health and Sage in sync, we're ensuring residents are covered the moment they move in, and that every call, fall, and elopement event ties back to current information about who they are and the care they need."
Reducing Operational Risks
Manual census updates are easy to miss in the rhythm of a busy community. When systems don't talk to each other, quiet but persistent safety gaps emerge: a pendant still active for a resident who has discharged, a new admit who isn't yet covered by the nurse call system, or a fall detected in a room the system thinks is unoccupied.
By making August Health the system of record for resident census and pushing that data into Sage in real time, communities protect the integrity of every life safety event Sage captures.
"Senior living teams shouldn't have to spend time acting as the bridge between disconnected systems,” says Ellen Johnston, co-founder and Chief Product Officer at Sage. “The future of senior living technology is an ecosystem where information flows seamlessly across tools. At Sage, we're committed to building that connectivity so communities can spend less time managing technology and more time focused on residents, caregivers, and care. The August Health integration is another important step in that direction."
Next Steps
This partnership also lays the foundation for a deeper bidirectional exchange between the two platforms, paving the way for even tighter integration between life safety and clinical workflows over time.
