Research

Research, not promises.

Klara is research, not a finished product. This is the question we are investigating and what we build on.

The question

Change often announces itself quietly, long before anyone notices. Together with care homes we are looking into whether reliable signs can be read from this, early enough to ask.

Klara is not a medical device, makes no diagnoses and replaces no medical judgement.

The situation

  • 800,000 people

    in Germany live in full residential care. Federal Statistical Office of Germany, 2023.

  • 12 minutes

    per resident at night, one carer looks after 52 people. Witten/Herdecke University, 2015.

  • 40 percent

    of depression in care homes is ever diagnosed at all. Goethe University Frankfurt, 2018.

Loneliness as a field of research

Loneliness in care homes is described as a topic in its own right in the specialist literature, for example in the Zeitschrift für Gerontologie und Geriatrie. The German Centre for Quality in Care (ZQP) lists loneliness as one of its focus topics.
