The device can also serve as a medication reminder for elderly patients with memory problems or who forget to take their pills on time, significantly decreasing medical emergencies and long-term complications. With high sensing accuracy to avoid false positives and deliver reliable service, as well as direct communication between elderly individuals and guardians to verify whether an accident actually happened, this device offers invaluable protection for eldercare.

When someone presses their help button, trained personnel in the monitoring center are then available to assess and determine an appropriate response to any given situation. Most advanced devices even utilize GPS technology so emergency services can locate their exact location when an incident arises; seniors can press their button if they experience heartburn, feeling sick, hearing someone enter their home without permission, feeling unsafe in any way etc.
