May 21, 2026
Life at LIO

At LIO, our mission has always been to make inpatient mental health care safe, supportive and empowering for everyone.
Recently, our CEO, Todd Haedrich, sat down with Pulse 2.0 to discuss the journey of LIO and the personal "why" behind our technology.
In the interview, Todd highlights the critical need for unified, contactless technology in the mental health space—moving away from fragmented "point solutions" toward an all-in-one platform that supports both frontline staff and hospital leadership.
Key highlights from the feature include:
- The power of impact: How LIO has helped partners achieve a 44% reduction in self-harm and 37% fewer assaults.
- A personal mission: Todd shares his personal connection to mental health advocacy and why "safety" isn't just a metric, but a human right.
- Innovating for the future: A look at our recent FDA clearances, including for pediatrics, and our rapid expansion across the U.S.
"What stays with me most are the stories of individual patients," Todd tells Pulse 2.0. "That's where you see the real human impact."
