Existing sensors are excellent at telling us what has happened.
SAM is designed to help determine whether it is still safe to wait.
Start a conversation See how it works ↓Sensors and monitoring devices are already very good at observing and reporting what is happening. SAM sits above them, using the information they already provide to support one justified answer: is it still safe to wait, or has the moment for action arrived?
For example: someone who has had a fall may not call for help right away. The question is whether that pause is ordinary caution, or something that shouldn't wait.
SAM is designed to sit within existing operational and clinical pathways, not to replace them.
Intended to add a considered layer of judgement to existing alert pathways.
Supports staff decisions around changes in condition, without adding alert fatigue.
Helps residents stay independent for longer, safely.
Brings the same "is it still safe to wait?" logic to lone-worker safety.
Universities, healthcare organisations and commercial partners exploring collaboration.
Helps people stay independent for longer, without being over-monitored or over-alarmed.
Provides clearer, more considered prompts to act when it's genuinely needed.
Supports better-reasoned decisions.
Aims to reduce unnecessary call-outs, and support better use of already-stretched services.
The detail of SAM's methodology is shared under NDA as part of active research and licensing discussions.
Existing sensors and systems keep watching.
Assesses whether it is still safe to wait.
Provides a clear, explainable read for the people who act.
SAM is currently progressing through independent academic validation in collaboration with university partners. The purpose of this work is to generate independent evidence of how SAM may support safer, well-reasoned decisions in community care.
Annabett Wain founded Smart Access and Monitoring Ltd to pursue a different question in care technology: not just what has changed, but whether it is still safe to wait. SAM is being developed as a research-led, explainable approach to that question, working alongside independent academic partners.
SAM wasn't created to replace people or existing technology. It was created to help answer one important question: when is it no longer safe to wait?
SAM is intended to be licensed as a white-label decision layer within partners' existing systems, rather than sold directly to individuals. We are currently working with partners in three ways.
Collaborating on independent validation and evidence generation.
Exploring real-world evaluation in appropriate settings.
Talking to organisations interested in future integration and licensing.
Whether you're exploring telecare integration, evaluating a research partnership, or considering licensing, we'd like to hear from you.
