Even before its official opening in December, experts already consider it one of the most modern and forward-thinking care facilities in Germany. The building was constructed entirely using sustainable hybrid timber modular construction. It combines innovative architecture with a clear vision for the future of care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After carefully evaluating various systems, IllerSenio deliberately chose <a href=\"https:\/\/iqfy.de\/en\">IQFY <\/a>technology. \u201cIt uses EnOcean\u2019s energy-harvesting wireless platform, which centers on battery- and cable-free sensors,\u201d emphasizes Andreas Thometzek, Managing Director of IQFY GmbH. This combination is redefining care, safety, and sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was important to us to choose a system that is reliable in the long term, maintenance-free, and ecologically meaningful. IQFY convinced us completely,\u201d explains Dominik Rommel, Managing Director of Caritas IllerSenio gGmbH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project is the first to genuinely consider all essential aspects of modern care. These include architecture, room design, digital assistance systems, and the working conditions of care staff. It is systematically oriented toward the needs of today\u2019s and future generations. People in need of care seek a safe, homelike environment, while caregivers want intuitive technology and relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe resulting overall and technology concept marks a milestone in the development of future care facilities. It is a one-of-a-kind lighthouse project in Germany\u2014one that will serve as a model nationwide for the future of care,\u201d Thometzek emphasizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31116\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-2.png 800w, https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-2-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-2-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-2-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>IQFY \u2013 Safety Standards from the Global Market Leader in Care<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The decision was no coincidence: IQFY has been recognized multiple times as a global market leader. The company is a leading provider of secure assistance systems for people with dementia. The specially developed IQcare systems reliably detect movement patterns. They discreetly record bed status and and automatically alert staff when a potentially dangerous situation occurs \u2013 for example, when a resident attempts to leave the bed unnoticed at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sensors used rely on energy-harvesting EnOcean technology. Drawing power from their environment, they require no cabling or batteries. The result: an almost maintenance-free, sustainable system that provides significant time savings and greater certainty in everyday care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Technology That Protects and Supports<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In everyday care, every second counts. Sensors in the IQcare mattress detect when a person leaves their bed and inform care staff in real time. This prevents falls early and protects residents. The system is complemented by evacuation covers, which allow bedridden individuals to be safely and easily evacuated in an emergency. This provides enormous relief for the caregiving staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because all components operate completely wirelessly and energy-autonomously, there is no need for complex installation, power connections, or maintenance intervals. The technology remains invisible to residents while acting in the background as a permanent safety net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31115\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-1.png 800w, https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-1-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/www.enocean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bed-1-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Flagship Project for the Entire Care Sector<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With its new building near Ulm, IllerSenio is sending a clear message: care can be sustainable, digital, and human at the same time. The combination of timber modular construction, EnOcean-based IQcare sensor technology, and modern architectural design creates an environment that enhances well-being, safety, and efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis project shows how genuine humanity can emerge from technological progress,\u201d says Thometzek. \u201cCare staff are relieved, residents gain safety, and the facility benefits from a system that anticipates needs and grows along with them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new IllerSenio care home is not a vision but a lived reality. With its consistent implementation of sustainability, digitalization, and humanity, IllerSenio\u2014together with IQFY and EnOcean\u2014is setting new standards and revolutionizing the care sector from Bavaria.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Caritas IllerSenio has chosen IQFY\u2019s energy-harvesting wireless systems after a comprehensive evaluation process.
