Support Aging-in-Place Lifestyles With Technology

Seniors live with more risks overshadowing their daily activities. That’s why many seniors or their caretakers choose communities where the elderly can receive constant supervision. However, according to an Alarm.com study, 87% of seniors want to stay in their homes as they age, but they share fears about mobility, feeding themselves and staying safe.

This more recent lifestyle choice is commonly called “living in place.” Instead of heading off to a nursing home or elderly community, living in place gives older people the opportunity to spend their advanced years where they feel most comfortable –

at home. Find out how that’s possible with some integrated smart home security technologies that we install and customize right here in Spring Hill, Tennessee.

When your loved one experiences a sudden medical event, both of you want to know they’re one button press away from professional assistance. Backed by a 24/7/365 response team and automation Fall Detection, MobileHelp devices can even notify an expert when your loved one can’t press a button.
