His new home is Norway&#8217;s first institution with patient monitoring in all patient rooms around the clock and has &#8220;everything&#8221; of modern technology.  This week, Norway&#8217;s most high-tech health center opened in T\u00f8nsberg.  &#8211; I am very excited about digital and how it will work.  We are very happy there are no robots coming, he laughs.  The municipality&#8217;s most expensive With a price tag of more than half a billion, the health center is the municipality&#8217;s most expensive building project ever.  The house will be packed with the latest welfare technology on the market.  It should give patients more peace of mind, increased security, greater freedom of movement and faster help.  Charlotte Bj\u00f8rnsen is project manager for the initiative.  She is confident that technology will not come at the expense of human contact.  &#8211; On the contrary.  The technology will free up human resources, thus giving them more time to be with patients who need help and social contact.  Sensor scans the rooms The core of the technology is a patient notification system called RoomMate.  The sensor scans the room around the clock and alerts the staff if something should happen.  If, for example, the patient falls or moves abnormally, an alert is sent.  It also responds to sound.  The notification goes straight to the employees&#8217; mobile phones.  If a patient falls in their room, the staff are notified on their mobile immediately.  It will not only notify that something has happened, but must also be able to prevent unwanted incidents and react to certain movements in the bed.  &#8211; If you know that this is a patient with a high risk of falling and a need for close follow-up, you can intervene immediately and actually manage to prevent the fall.  The solution also facilitates two-way communication between patient and carer.  Bj\u00f8rnsen emphasizes that RoomMate is not a continuous monitoring of the patients.  &#8211; Even if the sensor allows for visual supervision, the staff will not be able to look into the patient&#8217;s room unless the patient requests it himself.  Proud Mayor of T\u00f8nsberg, Anne Rygh Pedersen (Ap), believes this is Norway&#8217;s roughest health center.  &#8211; A nice house and a good place to be.  Here, the focus is on the very latest technological solutions we have that ensure that patients receive the best possible care, she says.  &#8211; We are very proud of that.
