It stands to reason that seniors want to stay independent in their own homes where they are most comfortable for as long as possible. However, when a senior lives alone or contends with physical or mental health conditions, family members may question whether it is possible…or for how long.
After nearly two decades of serving seniors in need of in-home care in the Clearwater area, there have been several instances when a Home Helpers caregiver was integral in helping someone who had fallen, suffered a serious health event, or experienced extreme anxiety for any number of reasons. But what if our caregiver or a family member was not around when these events occurred? After all, life happens every day.
With the help of a 24-hour monitoring service, seniors have another means of remaining safe and independent in their homes longer because someone is available 24/7/365 to provide aid and assistance whenever needed.
The Mobile Companion 2 may be a small device, but it performs in big ways as a personal emergency response system (PERS).
- 24/7 Emergency Response – Users have immediate access to assistance whenever and wherever needed.
- GPS Tracking – Family members have more peace of mind with real-time location tracking of the device user.
- Built-in Fall Detection – Advanced technology detects falls and automatically alerts emergency response services. (Includes adjustable sensitivity settings to match the user’s lifestyle: Off, Low, Normal, and High).
- Waterproof Design – It is safe to wear in the shower or during daily activities.
- Can be Worn on a Belt or as a Pendant – The user chooses the most comfortable way to wear the device.
- Long Battery Life – Extended battery life allows the device to perform continuously for 5+ days without frequent charging.
- Family Circle of Care App – This free app allows family members to monitor their loved one’s device, adjust settings, and stay connected.
- Easy Setup – Users can choose a free in-person meeting for setup assistance, or simple instructions are included to do it yourself.
- No Hidden Costs – Users enjoy straightforward pricing at $55/month. Cancel and return the device at any time. Plus, there are no long-term contracts or equipment costs, and there are never any installation, activation cancellation, shipping, or restocking fees.
The Mobile Companion 2 provides help at the touch of a button making it perfect for active seniors and their families to protect the user’s safety and independence for everyone’s peace of mind.
Home Helpers and I fully endorse the Mobile Companion 2 PERS 24-hour monitoring device and the exclusive line of medical alert products by Direct Link to empower seniors to live independently at home longer than might otherwise be possible. Direct Link products feature the Mobile Companion 2 (PERS), and include a monitored automated medication dispenser, and vital signs monitoring device.
In addition to 24-hour monitoring services, Home Helpers employs professional caregivers who are available for 24-hour home care for aging adults who require closer attention and more hands-on help with daily activities. Whether someone requires live-in care or shift care, they will always have someone to assist them when needed.
The caregivers I employ assist with personal care, light housekeeping, meal preparation, medication and hydration reminders, as well as companion care to stimulate social engagement. With our 24-hour caregiving services, family members will not have to worry about the safety and security of their loved ones or be concerned about paying payroll taxes, liability, or worker’s compensation insurance since our caregivers are employees who are licensed, bonded, and insured by our agency.
