Abstract: A method of managing sleep therapy includes inputting characterization data associated with each of a plurality of patients into a database system stored in a memory system and inputting outcome data associated with each of the plurality of patients resulting from use of one of a plurality of interface systems in sleep therapy. The method further includes determining a management option for sleep therapy for a person via execution of the algorithm based at least in part upon an optimization of at least one outcome parameter for the person predicted by at least one model of the algorithm based at least in part upon characterization data of the person input into the database system.

Abstract: A system for monitoring a plurality of persons in an assisted living facility includes a local system in the assisted living facility. The local system includes a plurality of sensor systems. Each of the plurality of sensor systems is adapted to monitor changes in state of at least one monitored system caused by activity or lack of activity of at least one of the plurality of persons. The plurality of sensor systems include a plurality of presence sensors adapted to determine at least the presence or the absence of each one of the plurality of persons on a bed thereof or on a wheelchair thereof. The local system further includes a local communication device in communicative connection with each of the plurality of sensor systems to receive data from each of the plurality of sensor systems. The system further includes a remote system in communication with the local communication device.
