NHS Evaluation Shows up to 75% Reduction in Hospital Visits in Care Homes Using Nobi Smart Lights

An independent NHS evaluation across seven Suffolk care homes using Nobi Smart Lights reported up to a 75% reduction in falls‑related hospital admissions and up to a 65% drop in ambulance call‑outs. The study compared six months of baseline data with six months after installing the AI‑enabled ceiling lights in 87 rooms, with some homes recording zero fall‑related admissions. Real‑time detection and instant illumination helped staff intervene within seconds, improving resident safety and confidence. Using NHS reference costs, the programme avoided £89,000 in emergency‑care expenses, projecting a 196% return on investment over three years.
