LENDAY
FOUNDER & CPO AT MYSENSE
it to be , I began to be perturbed by the fact that I was only one of two women working in engineering on site . I ’ m sure it ’ s changed now , but at the time it was not going to be an easy path . I switched at the last minute to read law .
In 2016 , I founded MySense . I ’ ve been incredibly lucky along the way ; I ’ ve worked with brilliant people who have fed my thirst for learning in this space .
Q . WHY DID YOU BUILD MYSENSE ?
» Because I had to . I lost my sister at the age of 23 to a rare form of Motor Neurone Disease and during her decline I always felt that we were on the back foot , never knowing what we needed to do next to let her retain some level of control and dignity . Whilst I was at Surrey , I met with front line staff and residents that were in similar situations .
When you ’ re at your most vulnerable you need as much information at your fingertips to make the right choices .
Q . HOW DOES IT SUPPORT VULNERABLE PEOPLE ?
» My Sense is a best-in-class product that predicts health decline and deterioration .
The predictive process starts in the home , before any illness or frailty manifests itself , and helps understand the unique characteristics of ageing in each person . Our innovative system utilises advanced algorithms and artificial intelligence to track and interpret the data collected , enabling early detection of potential health risks and personalised recommendations for disease management .
Our aim is to prevent a problem , a fall or an admission to hospital before it happens , which is better for the user , their families and the health service . healthcare-digital . com 15
