Ron:
I really wish I could rely on my SmartThings system
My 82 year old Mother In-Law just moved in with us and I really wish I could use the SmartThings hub to monitor her and allow her to have an alert button that could notify us via ST app any time.
But given the state of this system I need to look pay for another system to perform these tasks. Any recommendations ?
Medical monitoring systems were recently discussed in the following topic. Although The use case that initiated that topic is about someone who fell and blacked out, all of the commercial solutions mentioned for that problem also have a manual button that can be pressed to initiate the alert on demand, so they also solve your problem.
Hi,
I don’t know if there is fall detection device. I had a really scary situation today and would like to find a solution.
My wife blacked out and fell in the bathroom hurting her self to the point where she could not attend to my 11 months old. Lucky I did not leave for work yet.
If I wasn’t home it would have been 4 hours later when I would have called to check on her and my son.
Would any of these fitness tracker work? with or without Smartthings?
I notice there are SmartApps for elder but that is using motion sensor. Have a small son that will not work too well because he is running around.
Any help would be great.
