DwellSafe Launches AI-Powered Home Scans to Reduce Falls, Hospital Readmissions for Aging Adults

DwellSafe, an AgeTech innovator combining AI and clinician insight to prevent falls and hospital readmissions, announced the launch of its AI-powered home-safety and accessibility platform which helps older adults, people with disabilities and post-acute patients live more safely and independently. This announcement coincides with National Falls Prevention Month which aims to raise awareness about the risks of falls and promote strategies to prevent them, especially among older adults.

With America’s 65+ population doubling in the decades ahead and hospital-at-home programs expected to reach almost $23 billion in the next five years, the home itself has become a critical but overlooked setting of care. Falls at home are the leading cause of injury, death and costly hospital readmissions among older adults — yet traditional, in-person assessments cannot keep pace with the exploding growth of the older adult population.

The DwellSafe platform brings hospital-grade safety assessments into any home — instantly and at scale. By combining AI with precision-matched clinicians, DwellSafe delivers actionable insights that help families, providers and health systems prevent falls and improve recovery.
