We’re excited to announce that Rendever, in collaboration with Front Porch Senior Living and RiverSpring Living, has won Gold in two categories at the 2024 McKnight’s Tech Awards. These awards recognize providers and companies that showcase excellence in developing and implementing cutting-edge technologies that positively impact the aging services sector. 

First, we are proud to highlight our Gold Award at the 2024 McKnight’s Tech Awards in collaboration with Front Porch Senior Living for our impactful initiative “Rendever Improves Mobility and Reduces Fall Risk.” This recognition highlights our joint efforts in implementing RendeverFit® exercises at Villa Gardens where residents have seen remarkable improvements in resident mobility and confidence. As Front Porch noted, "The data from the pilot study speaks for itself."

In another proud moment, Rendever and RiverSpring Living also received the Gold Award for “Facilitating Safe Discharge with VR Headsets.” This initiative, in collaboration with The Hebrew Home at Riverdale, enhances transition care by using virtual reality to conduct comprehensive home safety evaluations. By capturing detailed 360-degree views of a patient’s home, therapists can make targeted recommendations, ensuring it meets the evolving needs of patients and supports their safe return home. As RiverSpring expressed, “This project exemplifies our commitment to safety and quality care.”

We’re incredibly proud to celebrate these awards!
