Amba and CALA Partner to Elevate Senior Living Standards
The landscape of senior care is shifting. As the demand for high-quality assisted living grows, so does the need for tools that empower caregivers and protect residents. Today, we are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between Amba and the California Assisted Living Association (CALA).
This collaboration marks a significant step forward in our shared mission: to enhance the lives of seniors and support the dedicated professionals who care for them. By combining Amba’s cutting-edge monitoring technology with CALA’s industry leadership, we are poised to drive meaningful improvements in care quality, operational efficiency, and resident well-being across California.
A Shared Vision for Better Care
At the heart of this partnership is a mutual commitment to excellence. CALA has long been the voice of Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Continuing Care Retirement Communities in California, advocating for policies and education that uplift the entire sector. Similarly, Amba was founded on the belief that technology should serve people—making care more responsive, personalized, and effective.
Together, we are addressing the critical challenges facing senior living operators today:
- Workforce efficiency: helping care teams do more with less stress.
- Resident safety: preventing falls and health incidents before they escalate.
- Personalized experiences: moving away from rigid schedules to care that responds to individual needs.
Empowering Caregivers with Innovation
For CALA members, this partnership introduces a new avenue for operational excellence. Amba’s system uses discreet sensors that monitor sleep, activity, and mobility to provide real-time insights into resident well-being.
This technology transforms the caregiver experience. Instead of relying on repetitive, scheduled room checks that can disturb sleeping residents, staff can use Amba’s dashboard to see exactly who needs attention and when. This shift from reactive to proactive care reduces workload stress and allows caregivers to focus their energy where it matters most: meaningful human interaction.
Key Benefits for Communities
- Reduced Nighttime Disturbances: Sleep is vital for senior health. Amba allows staff to monitor safety without entering rooms unnecessarily, preserving residents’ dignity and rest.
- Fall Prevention: By tracking mobility and wandering, staff can intervene in those critical moments before an accident occurs, rather than responding after the fact.
- Data-Driven Decisions: Real-time health data helps care teams identify trends—such as changes in bathroom use or sleep patterns—that may indicate emerging health issues.
Strengthening the California Senior Living Ecosystem
California is often at the forefront of healthcare innovation, and this partnership ensures that senior living communities in the state have access to the best tools available.
By becoming a partner, Amba joins a robust network of Premier and Sustaining Partners dedicated to advancing the sector. We look forward to participating in CALA’s educational events, conferences, and advocacy efforts, contributing our expertise in care technology to the broader conversation about the future of aging services.
We believe that technology is not a replacement for care, but a powerful amplifier of it. With CALA’s guidance and network, we are excited to bring this philosophy to more communities, helping operators navigate workforce shortages while maintaining the high standards of care families expect.
Join Us in Shaping the Future
We are incredibly proud to stand alongside CALA in supporting the diverse needs of California’s senior living providers. This partnership is just the beginning of our work to create safer, happier environments for seniors and more sustainable workplaces for caregivers.
