One Platform. A Clearer View of Every Care Moment.

Tenera Care brings four-inch precision real-time location, mobile nurse call, automated safety alerts, live community maps, behavioral insights, care delivery reporting, asset tracking, and integrations into one platform built specifically for senior living. See where residents, staff, and essential equipment are, understand what is changing, and give care teams the context they need to respond sooner, reduce risk, and deliver more personalized care.

Why Tenera

A Location Platform Built Around Senior Living

Tenera is not a general-purpose tracking system adapted to a care environment. Its proprietary positioning model was trained on millions of location events collected inside senior living communities, allowing the platform to account for the movement patterns, spaces, workflows, and interactions that matter in daily resident care.

This model delivers industry-leading precision using up to 50% fewer anchors than traditional UWB deployments. Communities can reduce infrastructure costs, installation complexity, and disruption without compromising accuracy.

The result is a highly precise, scalable platform that is easier to deploy and purpose-built for the unique demands of senior living.

How It Works

See What Is Happening.
Understand What It Means.
Act Sooner.

01 - Capture

Wearables, tags, and UWB anchors

Lightweight resident and staff wearables, asset tags, and anchors installed throughout the community continuously capture precise location and movement data.

02 - Locate

4-inch real-time precision

Tenera’s proprietary location engine determines where residents, staff, and essential equipment are with enough precision to distinguish meaningful activity within the same room.

03 - Understand

Location becomes context

The platform combines location, motion, interactions, and patterns over time to understand situations such as getting out of bed, entering a bathroom, approaching an exit, requesting help, or changing daily routines.

04 - Act and Improve

Alerts, workflow, and long-term insight

Care teams receive calls and automated alerts with precise location context, while dashboards and reports reveal resident wellness trends, staff response, care delivery, and operational opportunities.

How We Are Different

Not All Real-Time Location Platforms Are Built the Same

Most RTLS platforms can tell you that someone is somewhere inside a room. Tenera provides four-inch precision, giving care teams enough context to understand what may actually be happening within that space.

Knowing that a resident is in a bedroom offers limited value. Knowing that the resident is getting out of bed, entering a bathroom, approaching an exit, or interacting with another resident can enable timely intervention and a more informed response.

Meaningful alerts, less alarm fatigue.

Why Ultra-Wideband

The Precision Senior Care Requires, Without Cameras in Resident Spaces

How UWB Compares With Other Location Technologies

How UWB Compares With Other Location Technologies

Many technologies can provide general location awareness. Far fewer can deliver the continuous, low-latency, chair-level information required to understand activity within a room, support context-aware alerts, and preserve resident dignity. Tenera uses UWB because senior living requires more than knowing which zone someone is in.

The right technology doesn’t just locate people. It provides the context caregivers need to make better decisions, faster.

That’s why Tenera is built on Ultra-Wideband.

Nurse Call

Help That Doesn’t Wait for a Button.

Traditional nurse call is tied to a place — a cord in the bathroom, a button by the bed. Tenera moves with the resident and, when a situation looks dangerous, calls for help on its own.

Traditional nurse call is tied to a place — a cord in the bathroom, a button by the bed. Tenera moves with the resident and, when a situation looks dangerous, calls for help on its own.

Anywhere in the community

The call carries the resident’s exact location, not just a room number, so staff go straight to them.

Automatic when it matters

Dangerous situations trigger a notification without anyone pressing anything.

Fewer false alarms

Four-inch precision keeps alerts context-aware, cutting the alarm fatigue that makes staff tune them out.

Integrations
