Novecta gives care home operators real-time clinical oversight, CQC compliance tools, and passive resident monitoring — all in one platform, built by someone who has actually run care homes.
Novecta was founded by Ernest Junior Quartey-Nunoo — a care professional with over 20 years of frontline experience, including as a CQC-registered manager. We built the platform we always wished existed: one that actually understands how care homes operate, what inspectors look for, and where operators lose time and confidence.
The result is a live, deployed platform built from the ground up for the real demands of adult social care — not a startup idea, but a working system with a clear vision for the sector.
Care technology designed from the inside out.
Novecta's four integrated modules cover the full operational and clinical lifecycle of a care home — from CQC compliance to passive resident monitoring.
Automated incident escalation, notification workflows, and audit trail generation aligned to CQC's 48-hour reporting obligations. Never miss a statutory notification again. Every incident is tracked, timestamped, and ready for inspection.
CQC ComplianceA specialist clinical documentation suite for MH rehabilitation settings — care plans, risk assessments, MDT records, MHA legal status, and recovery pathway tracking built for the real complexity of this client group.
ClinicalA real-time executive dashboard giving group directors consolidated oversight across all homes — occupancy, compliance status, staffing ratios, incidents, agency spend, and KPIs in one unified view.
OperationsCamera-free passive resident monitoring using advanced radio frequency sensing. Our primary innovation — detecting movement, falls, sleep quality, and early deterioration without cameras or wearables. Dignity-first by design.
Primary InnovationSafeSpace™ uses advanced radio frequency sensing to monitor residents continuously, without cameras, without wearables, and without any intrusion into their privacy. It detects falls, monitors breathing, tracks sleep quality, and identifies early signs of deterioration — feeding everything directly into the Novecta dashboard.
Request a SafeSpace™ DemoInstant detection the moment a fall occurs. Alert sent to the duty Care Manager within seconds — simultaneously triggering the nurse call system. Every fall generates a timestamped incident record automatically.
Real-Time AlertBreathing rate, restlessness, and movement monitored throughout the night without any physical contact or room entry. Anomalies trigger an immediate alert. Morning sleep summaries auto-generated for handover.
Overnight SafetyFor residents with dementia, the system detects movement outside designated zones and triggers corridor and external camera recording instantly — without door sensors or physical restraints.
Dementia SafetyBreathing rate and heart rate estimated passively via sub-millimetre body movement detection — providing continuous background physiological monitoring without any wearable devices or physical sensors on the resident.
Clinical AideReal-time room-by-room occupancy visible on the Novecta dashboard. Staff rounding verification confirms physical presence during checks. Integrates directly with the shift rota for staffing deployment.
OperationsEvery alert follows a defined escalation pathway. Care Manager → Named Individual → Deputy → Emergency Dispatch. No alert can be silently ignored. Every response is logged, timestamped, and auditable for CQC.
GovernanceSafeSpace™ doesn't just alert — it escalates. A structured four-tier pathway ensures that every alert reaches the right person, and that no incident ever falls through the gap.
Most care technology is reactive — it alerts you after something has gone wrong. Novecta's predictive care engine uses continuous passive data to identify the patterns that precede deterioration — hours or days before clinical symptoms appear.
Urinary tract infections are the leading cause of acute confusion in dementia residents — and are frequently missed until the resident is seriously unwell. The early signal is almost always a change in bathroom behaviour.
Gait changes and reduced movement confidence precede falls by days to weeks. The system builds a baseline for each resident and flags deviation — prompting proactive review before the fall occurs.
Depression is massively underdiagnosed in care home residents. Reduced mobility, extended time in bed, and decreased activity are the behavioural signature — and they show up in movement data before verbal disclosure.
A new medication causing dizziness, sedation, or increased nighttime waking will show up in movement data within 48–72 hours of prescription — creating a feedback loop no current system provides.
In dementia, behavioural routine is everything. When a resident's established pattern breaks down, it frequently signals a new phase of deterioration or an underlying physical cause that needs clinical attention.
Declining breathing rate regularity and increased overnight anomalies can indicate early chest infection, COPD exacerbation, or cardiac events — detected passively without any contact with the resident.
For residents with dementia and Alzheimer's disease, SafeSpace™ goes beyond general monitoring to build a deeply personal picture of each resident's patterns, behaviours, and vulnerabilities.
Identifies each resident's precise agitation window from movement data — so staff can prepare calming environments proactively before the resident becomes distressed.
Learns individual wandering patterns over time — what triggers them, what time they occur, which route the resident takes — enabling earlier, calmer intervention.
Tracks daily routine adherence as a live metric. Breakdown in routine is frequently the first visible signal of a new deterioration phase — SafeSpace™ surfaces it immediately.
Continuous overnight monitoring without room entry. Staff intervene only when the data indicates it is necessary — preserving sleep quality and slowing cognitive decline.
Most care software was built by software companies. Novecta was built by a care operator — someone who has held CQC registration, managed inspections, covered night shifts, and dealt with staffing crises at 6am. That experience is in every screen.
SafeSpace™ delivers complete resident monitoring without the dignity concerns of cameras or the compliance burden of wearables — protecting residents and operators alike.
Every feature maps to a CQC inspection domain. The platform generates the audit trails, escalation records, and documentation inspectors expect to see — automatically.
Novecta doesn't just alert you when something goes wrong — it tells you what's about to go wrong, days before it becomes a crisis or a hospital admission.
The first 100 care homes join Novecta free for 12 months. No catch — we want to earn your trust before we charge for it.
Novecta is raising pre-seed funding under SEIS and EIS to accelerate platform development and launch SafeSpace™ at scale. We are actively seeking aligned investors who understand the care sector.
