We all know the elderly need care. The level and kind of care may differ between people, but all seniors require a certain amount of supervision and care from their family.
While the importance of emotional well being cannot be overstated, it’s physical care which is more demanding and challenging for the carer.
Old and fragile seniors are vulnerable to medical complications as well as possible loss of mental sharpness and memory – making them prone to episodes where immediate help is critical.
With most families living separate in smaller family units, it is not physically possible to maintain constant contact and communication with elderly parents.
This is where Gerisafe comes in – bundling technology with insightful engineering to empower families of elderly people to track, monitor and address urgent situations concerning aged parents and relatives.
Gerisafe is a smart health tracker watch worn by the senior member, connected to a mobile app on the carer’s mobile phone. In just a few seconds the carer can get to know some of the most vital information about them such as a) location b) blood pressure c) heart rate and d) position (in case of a fall). What’s more, the elderly can also use Gerisafe to make normal or video calls to 3 pre-fed numbers on it.
Thus, Gerisafe gives confidence and peace of mind to both the senior member as well their carer – eliminating the panic arising out of lack of access or information. With just a few taps, keys health relates issues can be noted and attended to as necessary.
Compact and lightweight, Gerisafe looks and feels just a like a regular watch, so the seniors can wear it without feeling queasy about wearing a ‘device’ which can challenge their self esteem and confidence. As a matter of fact, many of the wearers of Gerisafe do not know of all its features, they enjoy its video calling function and use it just as a regular watch while the carers have all the information they need.
