Caregiving Clarified Waitlist Form

My parent lives alone and doesn't receive formal care.

I am the sole caregiver for my aging parent.

I share caregiving duties with my siblings.

I hired a caregiving agency to care for my parent.

I privately hired a caregiver to care for my parent.

My parents are in an assisted living facility.

Which best describes your current situation?

To honor their wishes and maintain their independence: I want them to be able to safely age in their own home for as long as possible without feeling like they have lost their independence.

To delay facility admission and save money: I want a solution that safely delays the need for them to move into an expensive assisted living facility or nursing home.

To gain peace of mind without hovering: I want to alleviate my own constant anxiety about their safety without invading their privacy or making them feel micromanaged.

To catch health declines early: I want a system that gives me early warnings of physical or cognitive decline so we can intervene before a catastrophic emergency occurs.

To be notified of emergencies: I want to know that if an emergency happens, I'll be immediately notified so that we can deal with bad accidents quickly.

To gather objective data for their doctors/caregivers: I want data-driven wellness reports to share with their physicians to help make better, more informed medical decisions.

What best describes the desired outcome you for your situation/your parent? 

No, but I suspect they will at some point.

Immediate Fall Alerts: Instant notifications if a fall is detected, without them needing to wear a pendant or push a button.

Infection Early Warnings: Detection of potential infections (like UTIs) by tracking unusual spikes in nighttime bathroom trips.

Medication Assurance: Verification that daily medications are being accessed on time, helping prevent missed or double doses.

Fire Prevention: Automatic stove shut-offs and alerts if the kitchen is left unattended while cooking.

Nutrition Verification: Proof of healthy eating routines, like opening the fridge and accessing the kitchen for meals.

Wandering Alerts: Notifications if they are wandering near exterior doors or staircases in the middle of the night.

Contactless Vitals: Monitoring of resting heart rate and breathing while they sleep to spot early health changes.

Sleep Insights: Tracking of sleep quality and nighttime restlessness.

Blood Pressure Logging: Automated logging of their daily blood pressure readings for their doctor, without them needing an app.

Mobility Tracking: Tracking changes in walking speed and transition times to spot progressing physical frailty.

Sedentary Alerts: Warnings if they are spending unusually long, consecutive hours sleeping in their lift chair or recliner.

Caregiver Verification: Verified logs of when hired in-home caregivers actually arrive and how long they stay.

Mobility Aid Compliance: Confirmation that they are consistently using their prescribed walker or cane around the house.

Hygiene Monitoring: Passive verification of daily shower habits to ensure basic hygiene is being maintained.

Flood Prevention: Automatic water shut-off to prevent floods and slip hazards if a sink or tub is accidentally left running.

Option A (Ownership): I prefer to buy the equipment upfront to keep my monthly subscription low (e.g., $3000+ upfront for hardware/installation, plus a $150/month monitoring fee).

Option B (Leasing): I prefer a much lower upfront cost, even if it means a higher monthly subscription (e.g., $1,000 upfront for installation, plus a $300–$450/month monitoring fee.

Option C (Out of Budget): Honestly, both of those options are currently outside of my budget for this type of service.
