I would like to move back with my SO in another state. We have a caregiver for some hours and I think we'll add another for later hours. I've heard so much good and bad about different ideas relating to security "systems" that I don't know where to start. I imagine I would also like to be able to see what the cameras see on my phone and/or computer. The house is 60 years old so it doesn't have any "smart" technology in it. Thank you in advance.
Can view on phone and/ or computer.
It works well but low lighting in the room causes the batteries to work harder and therefore more frequent Changes. Uses rechargeable batteries. I haven’t had a downside. My helpers don’t like changing the batteries but humor me. When my aunt (91) presses her Medialert button by mistake I can see her interacting with the ambulance drivers and have peace of mind. I can check on her during the day. See her in her chair, at her breakfast table etc.
I can see her interacting with her aids, home health etc.
it’s been helpful.
It doesn’t catch everything but is a layer of care that allows her to live as she chooses a little longer. Sometimes I’m out of range with my phone provider and I have to rely on others to check on her. I think it would be hard to utilize without someone local to maintain it to a degree for you. Hope this helps.
