Life Support Medical General Information - Life Support Medical vs. Comparable Systems - Behavioral Monitoring

Life Support Medical Home Monitoring System:

Life Support Medical offers the most comprehensive in-home wireless Medical Alert System. The system helps people who are aging, suffering health challenges due to illness, live independently and safely at home.

Life Support Medical is the most complete system on the market, yet it is very affordable, and it covers things that most systems fail to.

For example, if a client passes out or is knocked unconscious from a fall, how do they manage to push a button that calls for help? They don't!

Life Support Medical has an automatic fall detector. If a client passes out, or falls and is knocked unconscious by a hit to the head, this system still makes the call.

The Life Support Medical system places emergency buttons in all the common places people get sick, fall, or suffer accidents at home like besides, stairwells, bathrooms and kitchens.

 

 

The Life Support Medical Home Monitoring system offers:

- Fire protection with a state of the art fire detector
- Carbon monoxide poisoning monitoring with a carbon monoxide detector
- Medication reminder with a medication reminder alert program
- An Inactivity Zone monitoring feature for when clients fail to move about during the day
- Flood detector for accidents involving water overflowing in bathrooms and kitchens
- Plus, the 4 Step Fall Protection for when a client/patient falls down and can’t get up:
    o Wearable, submersible pendent or bracelet
    o Clip on waist band “auto – fall” detector
    o Extra large, red, illuminated emergency buttons placed around the residence
    o Inactivity zone monitoring 

If you are interested, reply to this post, and I will send details including a PDF of the product.

  1. Behavioral Monitoring

    There are products that were developed for residential customers to monitor their movements and behavior. Motion sensors are set up throughout a residence and a console is connected to internet routers. The sensors report movement such as approaching the refrigerator, moving about the house, sitting in a chair, or entering and exiting a bathroom. The system sends emails and text messages to family caregivers who work to interpret and respond to the data. The troubles here are numerous. First of all, family members tire immediately of the barrage of signals they are uncertain how to respond to. The system designers did not take into account customers may leave the house for visits to the post office, or walks, or errands. The system designers did not consider customers may have guests or pets that can create false positives. Most importantly if a system signals a customer is entering the bathroom, then only signals the family or caregiver in the event that the customer does not come out of the bathroom after an hour, it's too late. Paramount to saving lives and reducing complications is providing a response during the "golden hour", the critical period that paramedics and physicians will verify is the most critical time frame to deliver aid. The most well known behavioral monitoring system does not provide an array of active devices to signal help during an emergency, nor other serious home safety situations. The cost averages $2400 per year for this type of system.
