VGR is currently rolling out QUMEA in stages across five hospital administrations. Once implementation is complete, up to 2,400 beds will be covered by the anonymous, radar-based solution, giving care teams continuous understanding instead of point-in-time checks.

In an interview with Medtech & Digital Hälsa (source: Medtech & Digital Hälsa, 1 July 2026), Micha Kämpfer, Chief Customer Officer at QUMEA, speaks about the tender process, the staged rollout across Swedish hospitals, the role of data protection, and the project’s next steps.

Kämpfer describes a rollout built on foresight rather than retrofit: implementation proceeds hospital by hospital, in close collaboration between VGR and QUMEA, so that care teams gain reliable, context based insight from day one rather than being confronted with a finished system. Movement patterns are translated into clinical intelligence continuously, giving nursing staff the confidence to act before a situation becomes critical, without cameras, without wearables, and without adding to their workload.

Data protection is a central theme of the interview. Kämpfer explains how dignity by design shapes the system from the ground up: no images are captured, no individuals are identified, and the radar based approach gives hospitals legal certainty without compromise on patient privacy.

The technology is only part of what determines the project’s success. Kämpfer also addresses how QUMEA supports each implementation phase with training, hands on support, and data driven tracking of outcomes, work that continues as the project moves into its next stages of expansion.
