Selection of Your Care Setting

The alea system is designed for the care contexts and approved use environments defined within its intended purpose.

Selection of the appropriate care setting within the alea App is based on the configuration provided by the respective organization or system operator.

The responsible organization or customer is responsible for selecting the applicable care setting and assigning the corresponding user roles and access permissions.

Depending on the contractual agreement, organization, and approved functional scope, the care setting may already be preconfigured or may be defined during the initial setup process.

Status Overview

The functional center of the alea App provides a detailed overview of each care recipient's status for every activated system function.

Within each status bar, events are also arranged from left to right according to their priority and relevance.

Symbol	Description
	Suspected Fall A possible fall was detected for Martin Wächter 2 minutes ago. We recommend verifying the situation as soon as possible. By clicking the fall icon, the suspected fall can be recorded in the Manual Documentation.
	alea Clip Presumably Disposed Of The status has not been updated for 30 minutes because the alea Clip was likely disposed of together with the saturated smart incontinence product. The alea Clip can be used for up to 3 years. We therefore recommend retrieving it from the waste container and continuing to use it.
	Urine Saturation Level "Full" The incontinence status "Full" was reached for Robert Hoch 29 minutes ago. We recommend changing the incontinence product. By clicking the incontinence icon, the product change and saturation level can be documented in the Manual Documentation.
	Charge alea Clip The battery of the alea Clip is running low. The alea Clip should soon be charged on the alea Dock and replaced with a fully charged alea Clip attached to the incontinence product.
	Movement to Supine Position Gabriele Wirth moved into a supine position 1.5 hours ago. There is currently no pressure injury risk. Once the repositioning interval has elapsed and repositioning becomes necessary, the movement indicator will turn red.
