Or Need Help Interpreting a Metric?

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

  • 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

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.

  1. bed data (most accurate), 
  2. alerts
  3. 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
