According to estimates, there are many elderly people in Italy and just as many are those who live alone. Since the risk of falls and other adverse health events increases with age, seniors interested in living independently as long as possible may find numerous benefits in using a home monitoring device that can help them age in safety.
Thanks to recent technological advances in home monitoring systems designed for the elderly, Senior Safety® is able to offer innovative devices capable of increasing the peace of mind of the elderly, their loved ones and their assistants or tutors.

Home monitoring systems are part of a growing field where researchers are investigating more efficient and cost-effective ways to improve the health and safety of older people living alone, while reducing the care burden for health care workers and family assistants. These monitoring devices and systems use smart technology and the IoT to help monitor the elderly at home or in healthcare settings such as Local Health Authorities, nursing homes and retirement homes, connecting them to healthcare professionals and emergency services as needed. The Senior Safety® APP software captures the data it receives from the user, whether it is a button that the user presses, whether it is movement or inactivity detected by the sensors, which could be the reason of alarm.

Senior Safety® monitoring kits vary in scope and technological complexity. In healthcare settings, for example, remote patient monitoring via wearable devices can measure and transmit real-time health data, such as heart rate and blood pressure, from patients at home to their caregivers. In fact, one of the most emblematic advantages lies in the possibility of managing the sensors in a different way according to preferences. Elderly people at risk for falls, dizziness or vertigo may prefer to simply push a button, while more active seniors may benefit from an on-the-go GPS-enabled device to provide peace of mind during outdoor activities.
