Senior living operators are asked to do more with less every day. Yet many caregivers still spend valuable time manually updating resident information across multiple systems, creating unnecessary administrative work and increasing the risk of errors.
To help solve this challenge, Sage is excited to announce a new integration with August Health that automatically synchronizes resident census data between the two platforms automatically.
The August Health integration is part of Sage's ongoing investment in interoperability, giving operators greater flexibility to connect Sage with the EHR systems they already rely on across their organization.
Keeping Resident Information Accurate and Up to Date
Sage's integration with August Health keeps resident census data synchronized within a few minutes. When a resident is admitted, discharged, or experiences a level-of-care change in August Health, that information is automatically reflected in Sage.
The result is a more connected workflow that reduces manual data entry, eliminates duplicate work, and ensures care teams always have access to current resident information.
“Senior living teams shouldn't have to spend time acting as the bridge between disconnected systems. The future of senior living technology is an ecosystem where information flows seamlessly across tools. At Sage, we're committed to building that connectivity so communities can spend less time managing technology and more time focused on residents, caregivers, and care. The August Health integration is another important step in that direction.”
—Ellen Johnston, co-founder and Chief Product Officer at Sage.
Eliminating Administrative Burden
Many senior living communities rely on multiple technology systems to support care delivery and operations. When those systems don’t communicate with one another, staff are often forced to manually re-enter the same information in multiple places.
This creates several challenges:
- Duplicate data entry for admissions, discharges, and resident updates
- Increased risk of data inconsistencies between systems
- Slower onboarding of new residents
- Additional administrative workload for already-stretched teams
- Potential care coordination challenges when records are not aligned
By automatically synchronizing census information from August Health into Sage, communities can spend less time managing records and more time focused on residents and care delivery.
“Accurate census data is the foundation everything else depends on, and that's especially true for the systems your residents rely on to call for help,” says Erez Cohen, Co-founder, August Health. “By keeping August Health and Sage in sync, we're ensuring residents are covered the moment they move in, and that every call, fall, and elopement event ties back to current information about who they are and the care they need.”
—Erez Cohen, Co-founder, August Health.
Key Features
The August Health integration includes:
- Automatic synchronization of resident census data from August Health into Sage within just a few minutes
- Near-immediate updates for move-ins, move-outs, and level-of-care changes
- Reduced manual data entry during resident onboarding
- Ongoing synchronization to ensure Sage reflects the current state of the community census
Benefits for Operators and Care Teams
For operators, maintaining accurate resident records across systems is critical for reporting, coordination, and day-to-day operations. This integration helps ensure that everyone is working from the same source of truth.
For care teams, the benefits are equally important. Census changes entered into August Health automatically flow into Sage, reducing the need for duplicate work while improving confidence in the accuracy of resident information.
Expected outcomes include:
- Reduced time spent on census data entry and reconciliation
- Seamless onboarding of new residents
- Fewer discrepancies between August Health and Sage
- Improved confidence in operational and care data
- Smoother transitions when resident levels of care change
Supporting More Connected Care
At Sage, we believe technology should simplify workflows, not create more administrative work. Integrations like this one are an important part of building a more connected technology ecosystem for senior living communities.
The August Health integration represents another step in Sage's broader effort to create a more connected technology ecosystem for senior living operators. August Health is one of several EHR integrations in Sage's growing ecosystem, and it will not be the last. Our long-term vision is simple: operators should not have to choose between best-in-class technology solutions and connected workflows.
By continuing to expand our integration capabilities, Sage is helping communities eliminate administrative friction, improve data accuracy, and ensure care teams always have access to the information they need to deliver exceptional resident care.
