In this article you will discover when and why Nobi speaks, and the various ways Nobi's voice can benefit residents and those in need.
What
Nobi speaks to reassure, inform, and protect residents. From asking questions after a fall to giving morning greeting, Nobi’s voice creates safety and connection in care settings and at home.
Why
Nobi’s voice is more than just sound—it’s an essential part of care. A calm voice can reduce fear and confusion, especially for older adults who may be disoriented after a fall. It offers instant reassurance by letting residents know help is coming. Whereas two-way conversations let caregivers talk directly to residents if there has been a fall. A friendly morning greeting can also help residents start the day comfortably.
The volume of Nobi’s speech can be set to the volume the resident prefers—or turned off altogether for those who it may cause disorientation and confusion. This flexibility ensures Nobi fits every resident’s needs, from those who find comfort in a friendly voice to those with cognitive challenges who might feel anxious hearing it.
Nobi's voice features
Here’s how Nobi can speak—and how you can adjust it:
Fall confirmation: After detecting someone on the floor, Nobi asks, “Did you fall?” This avoids false alarms and unnecessary escalations.
Help is on the way: When an escalation is active for a fall or call, Nobi announces that help is coming, bringing peace of mind.
Morning greeting: A gentle voice shares the date, time, and temperature, helping residents start their day.
Two-way communication: Care staff can speak to the resident directly through the Nobi light via the call resident feature. Residents hear the voice and can reply, supporting quick checks and reassurance.
Volume control and settings: All these voice features can be turned on or off individually, and the volume can be adjusted. This makes Nobi adaptable for residents who prefer quiet or who may be sensitive to sound.
