Jim Conti introduces Homesite's innovative TV-based health hub that allows older adults to age in place safely while maintaining their independence and dignity.
• Smart technology becomes most effective when it's invisible yet readily accessible
• TV serves as the ideal platform since seniors are already comfortable with it
• Environmental sensors monitor motion, temperature, and light without intrusive cameras
• Early detection of unusual patterns helps prevent health emergencies
• Family members can connect through video calls that require explicit permission
• The sliding camera feature ensures privacy when not in use
• Data collected is HIPAA compliant and secure
• Future integrations include fall detection, leak sensors, and smart thermostats
• The system grows with changing needs throughout the aging continuum
• Environmental monitoring can detect early warning signs like increased bathroom visits
• Connections with healthcare providers, transportation services, and grocery delivery create a comprehensive ecosystem
• Pet care solutions are being developed for seniors aging with companion animals
To learn more about Homesite's solutions for families or to find a local home care provider who can install and manage the system, email Homesite directly.
