The Overview page should be check daily! It provides a high-level snapshot of a Member’s daily activity, health (biometric readings), and safety signals from the previous day. Each metric is calculated using data captured from connected devices, sensors, and alerts.
This article explains what each metric represents, what data is captured, and an overview of how it’s calculated, so you can confidently understand what you’re seeing. Zemplee does not simply display raw sensor readings. Instead, much of our collected data goes through a processing and curation step to ensure accuracy and consistency.
NOTE: Each column can be sorted by highs or lows. If a metric shows zero/no events or activity there are key reasons
- Sensor is not installed,
- Sensor is damaged or offline and needs attention
- Member is out of the home / no one is home.
- Member is not using the device
Before You Start: Member Types Matter
Metrics shown on the Overview page depend on how a Member is set up.
Activity-Only Members
Capture movement and room activity only. Does not capture health (biometric) metrics
Health-Only Members
Capture health metrics from connected devices only.
Hybrid Members
Capture both activity and Health. Displays options for a complete set of Overview metrics
Health Metrics
Health metrics use data collected from connected health devices over a 15-day lookback period.
Blood Pressure (mmHg)
What it shows: Recent blood pressure readings
How it’s calculated:
Pulled directly from connected devices
Pulled in daily and 15 day cycles
Some health data may appear as late as 15 days after a reading.
Available for: Health and Hybrid Members
Reasons for 0 reading:
- Sensor is not installed,
- Sensor is damaged or offline (verify on Member Profile page (Devices) or call Zemplee Support)
- Member is out of the home / no one is home.
- Member is not using the device
Heart Rate (bpm)
What it shows: Heart rate readings
How it’s calculated:
- Pulled from connected devices which picks up Heart Rates (Sleep Mat or BP Cuff)
- Pulled in daily and 15 day cycles
Available for: Health and Hybrid Members
Reasons for 0 reading:
- Sensor is not installed,
- Sensor is damaged or offline (verify on Member Profile page (Devices) or call Zemplee Support)
- Member is out of the home / no one is home.
- Member is not using the device
Weight (lbs)
What it shows: Recorded body weight
How it’s calculated:
Pulled from connected devices
Available for: Health and Hybrid Members
Temperature (°F)
What it shows: Body temperature readings
How it’s calculated:
Pulled from connected devices
Available for: Health and Hybrid Members
SpO₂ (%)
What it shows: Blood oxygen saturation
How it’s calculated:
Pulled from connected devices
Available for: Health and Hybrid Members
Respiratory Rate (bpm)
What it shows: Breaths per minute
How it’s calculated:
- Pulled from a Health Sleep Sensor device
- Pulled in daily and 15 day cycles
Some health data may appear as late as 15 days after a reading.
Available for: Health and Hybrid Members with a “Sleep” sensor installed.
Sleep & Daily Routine Metrics
Sleep (Hours)
What it shows: Estimated total sleep duration
How it’s calculated:
Based on Bed Mat occupancy data
Calculates total time the bed is continuously occupied
Pulled in daily and 15 day cycles
Available for: All Members with a Bed Mat installed
Wake-Up Time
What it shows: When the Member likely got out of bed for the day
How it’s calculated:
Zemplee determines a Member’s wake-up time by looking for the strongest available signal that the person is up and active, in a specific order of reliability.
- bed data (most accurate),
- alerts
- motion in other rooms
Relies on the manually entered Out of Bed Time found in the Member's Alert Settings, if no activity is detected.
If the system detects that the person is out of the home, no wake-up time is recorded for that day.
Available for: Activity and Hybrid Members with a Bed Mat installed
Reasons for 0 events: i.e. 0 opens
- Sensor is not installed,
- Sensor is damaged or offline (verify on Member Profile page (Devices))
- Member is out of the home / no one is home.
- Member is not well
Movement & Room Activity Metrics
Bathroom Visits
What it shows: Number of bathroom visits in a day
How it’s calculated:
Uses motion sensor activity
A visit is counted when:
Motion is detected in the bathroom
No motion is detected in other rooms for a defined period
Available for: Activity and Hybrid Members
Reasons for 0 events: i.e. 0 opens
- Sensor is not installed,
- Sensor is damaged or offline (verify on Member Profile page (Devices))
- Member is out of the home / no one is home.
- Member is not well
Kitchen Visits
What it shows: Number of kitchen visits
How it’s calculated:
Uses the same logic as Bathroom Visits
Based on motion patterns detected in the kitchen
Available for: All Members
Reasons for 0 events: i.e. 0 opens
- Sensor is not installed,
- Sensor is damaged or offline (verify on Member Profile page (Devices))
- Member is out of the home / no one is home.
- Member is not well
Refrigerator Opens
What it shows: How often the refrigerator was accessed
How it’s calculated:
Counts open and close events from the refrigerator door sensor
Available for: All Members with a refrigerator sensor installed
Reasons for 0 events: i.e. 0 opens
- Sensor is not installed,
- Sensor is damaged or offline (verify on Member Profile page (Devices))
- Member is out of the home / no one is home.
- Member is not well
Safety Metrics
Falls
What it shows: generated & documented fall alert events
How it’s calculated:
Based on fall alerts generated by:
- Alexa-triggered alerts
- Daily Notes that has documented a fall count
Each confirmed fall alert is counted
Available for: All Members
Why Some Metrics May Not Appear
A metric may be missing if:
- The device or sensor is not installed or not functioning (offline)
- No data was recorded during the period (for the extended 15 day cycle). Member may be out of the home/living space.
