Innovative technologies to ease the burden of caregiving

As part of ENO-mbH's “PflegePlus: Innovative Employee Retention in Nursing” project, a guided tour for nursing staff from inpatient and outpatient care facilities took place for the second time on October 23, 2025. The aim of the meeting was to gain practical insights into innovative solutions designed to make everyday nursing care easier and strengthen employee retention.

Participants included nursing staff from two Görlitz nursing services, project officer Anne Rubik from the Revierwende project in Cottbus, and ENO employee Sandra Bardely. The event gave participants the opportunity to try out modern systems and technologies for themselves. During a visit to the AAL model apartment in the senior-friendly Frauenburg-Karree, laboratory manager Maria Fabisch presented and demonstrated various technological solutions that work in the background while increasing safety and comfort in everyday life. These include sensors that automatically call for help in the event of a fall, devices to remind users to take medication or attend important appointments, smart lighting and heating systems, and easy-to-use assistance solutions for household tasks and communication.

 

Following the tour, the nursing staff took the opportunity to exchange experiences and jointly develop ideas on how the innovations presented could be meaningfully integrated into everyday nursing care. The focus was on how technological support can help relieve the burden on staff and better support family caregivers.
