Traunwinkl — a pioneering project in care
In May 2024, a state-of-the-art care facility was opened in Traunreut:
- Full-time residential care home with a residential group concept
- Dementia unit with a marketplace and private garden area
- All 90 rooms are equipped with SensFloor
About the care home
In Traunwinkl, great emphasis is placed on a familial and loving atmosphere. Small residential groups create a homely feeling. The heart of each living community is the barrier-free kitchen, where meals are prepared using the cook-and-chill method and enjoyed together. Not only are meals shared here, but it’s also a place where people spend a lot of time together.
The rooms are modern and welcoming. Single rooms and double rooms for couples are available, each with a private bathroom. Many rooms are wheelchair accessible.
Spacious terraces and a lovingly designed garden invite residents to relax, while raised garden beds engage nature-loving residents. A café, a common room, and a small chapel complete the offerings.
Secure living area for people with dementia
For residents with severe dementia a dedicated and protected living area is located on the ground floor. This allows them to move freely and safely without getting lost. The rooms are arranged around a recreated marketplace, evoking old memories and supporting the natural need for movement. An enclosed garden is also available for independent outdoor stays.
A pioneering project in care
In Traunwinkl, the operators of SeniorenService-Reif are setting new standards: more safety and better health for residents, as well as less stress for the already scarce caregiving staff. With SensFloor, they have brought the perfect support into the home. The assistance system monitors the well-being of the unit 24/7, giving caregivers a better overview.
The residents don’t notice the unusual technology in their rooms, but they benefit greatly from it.
More safety
No fall goes unnoticed. SensFloor detects every fall and immediately and automatically alerts the staff in case of an emergency. The alarms are relayed to the call system, guaranteeing quick help. A blessing for those who have fallen and a comforting reassurance for the caregivers.
Fall prevention with SensFloor
As soon as a resident gets out of bed at night, SensFloor automatically turns on a pathway light, significantly reducing the risk of tripping. If necessary, the night staff is also informed and can assist in time.
Caregivers also benefit from an improved overview thanks to the system.
Keeping an eye on all rooms at all times
During the night shift, thanks to the blue colour coding on the SensFloor ward terminal, caregivers can see at a glance in which rooms residents are active. Signal lights in the same colours light up at the residents’ doors. This way, staff always have an overview of the unit and can check the rooms where they are needed.
…and since both residents and staff are enthusiastic, the director, Mr. Reif, is also satisfied.
Successful recruiting
Thanks to SensFloor, the operator SeniorenService-Reif had a big advantage in recruiting. The system particularly attracted young employees to the facility. The home is now fully occupied—both with residents and staff.
Thanks to SensFloor, Traunwinkl is perfectly equipped for the future — a worthwhile investment for everyone involved.
