The idea
What it costs you
A patient or resident falls, and teams may not know exactly when, where, or how it happened.
~1M inpatient falls / yrAt-risk patients or residents move toward exits, restricted areas, or unsafe zones without immediate visibility.
$110M wrongful-death verdict, 2026Nurses, clinicians, and support staff face aggressive behavior, late response, or incidents with limited visual proof.
~2 nurses assaulted / hourUnauthorized access to medication rooms, records areas, NICU zones, labs, or sensitive hospital spaces can go unnoticed.
$3.5M HIPAA access settlementStaff spend valuable time watching high-risk patients instead of receiving real-time alerts when movement changes.
$1M+/yr on sitters per hospitalWithout searchable visual logs, proving safety checks, restricted access, and response timelines becomes difficult.
$566M in CMS LTC finesWhat FlowLinks catches
Continuous observation
Fall- and risk-watch is the most expensive pair of eyes in the building — a 1:1 sitter in a chair for every at-risk patient. FlowLinks lets one person watch many rooms at once: it detects bed-exit and at-risk movement and pages the nurse station the instant it matters.
1:1 sitter cost · per patient / day
down from $350 a patient, a day
$1M+ a year on sitters is the line FlowLinks attacks first.
Access & compliance
HIPAA wants proof of who physically reached ePHI. CMS wants proof you caught and reported the incident in time. The DEA wants effective controls on the medication room. FlowLinks gives every restricted door an audit-ready log with a clip for each open.
Privacy by design
In a healthcare building, trust is the product. FlowLinks is built to speak up only when something needs a human, and to stay quiet the rest of the time.
It watches for events — a fall, an exit breach, a door open — not people. No one sits staring at a live feed of patients.
Access is logged as known or unknown at a door. It is not a facial-recognition identity database, and never used to surveil individuals.
You choose the zones — corridors, exits, restricted rooms. Private patient areas stay off the map. Raw video can stay on-prem.
