Tenera Care and Dublin Glenn Memory Care Win Gold in 2026 McKnight's Technology Awards

Real-time location intelligence helped Dublin Glenn reduce overnight falls by 50% and identify emerging health risks sooner, enabling proactive care.

HALIFAX, NS, Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Tenera Care and Dublin Glenn Memory Care have been named Gold winners in the Keep It Super Simple (KISS) category of the 2026 McKnight's Technology Awards.

Now in its 16th year, the McKnight's Excellence in Technology Awards recognize aging services providers and technology partners that use technology to improve care, services and operations. The KISS category honors simple, effective applications of technology that deliver measurable improvements in care, services or operations.

The award recognizes Dublin Glenn's use of Tenera Care's real-time location intelligence platform to give care teams greater visibility into resident movement, changing routines and emerging risks, without adding complexity to staff workflows.

Within the first six months of deployment, Dublin Glenn achieved a 50% reduction in overnight falls. By providing real-time insights into resident location and movement, the platform helps caregivers recognize when residents may need assistance and respond before a potential fall.

The impact extends beyond fall prevention. Tenera Care analyzes changes in activity, mobility, sleep, social engagement and daily routines, helping Dublin Glenn's clinical team spot deviations that may signal an emerging health concern. In one case, a significant change in a resident's activity prompted the team to investigate and uncover a serious health issue. Early intervention enabled therapeutic treatment, and the resident returned to his normal activity baseline within 48 hours.

"Highly personalized, proactive care has always been at the heart of what we do at Dublin Glenn," said Kelly Lambert, Executive Director of Dublin Glenn Memory Care. "Tenera Care gives our team another layer of insight, helping us recognize changes sooner and respond to each resident's individual needs. This award is a wonderful recognition of our team and our continued commitment to using innovation to support exceptional memory care."

Tenera Care keeps the approach simple. Residents wear a lightweight device that passively captures location and movement data. Care teams receive actionable insights without cameras, manual data entry or significant changes to existing workflows.

"Innovation has the greatest impact when it solves real problems, and that requires partners willing to challenge how things have always been done," said Stephen Fitzgerald, CEO of Tenera Care. "Dublin Glenn shares that mindset. This recognition reinforces our commitment to building practical technology that addresses the challenges senior living communities face today while helping shape what better care can look like tomorrow."
