"Just writing to let you know how the system is working for us. We are overall very pleased with our system. The cameras are great. They definitely remove a lot of worry for us. We can periodically check on Mom during the day and make sure she is okay. The motion detectors work well also as we can track what time she goes to bed and gets up. The contacts on the back door let us know when she is letting the dog in and out and we have received calls at night, as occasionally he had to go out. We were not aware this was happening. This is a good tool for us because we can then go to the video and make sure she is back in the house and has not accidentally locked herself out. The only part of our system that isn't working quite as we planned is the medicine box. We had hoped that with the contact on the box we could track when it was opened and closed therefore feeling confident that she had taken her medication as that is a problem for us with her memory loss. This however is not working for us as she frequently opens and closes it during the day because she can't remember what is in that box. We have not really figured out a way to monitor the medication yet. For the time being we try to check the video around her mealtime and call her to get her pills. The only other down side of this system is the video in the evening as Mom has very light sensitive eyes so she keeps her lights very dim and it is hard to see her in the video unless she moves. Low light cameras would be a bonus for us. We feel this system is an excellent way of monitoring Mom without really bothering her. We do not discuss the system with her and she has pretty much forgot it is there. This system is an economical way for us to keep her in her home. We are very much satisfied and tell all of our friends with elderly parents about it." Betty M.

"My parents live 500 miles away.  I was worried sick about them.  But now I know that if anything goes wrong, Care Link Advantage will notify me immediately, no matter where I am." Paul C.

"I have a husband and kids of my own, as well as a job.  Care Link makes it so much easier for me to stay connected to my father, watching over him to make sure he’s ok." Marie T.

"We used to stop what we were doing to call mom or go over to ensure all was well.  This created lots of anxiety not only for us, but also for mom who would get agitated with all our calls and visits.  Now I don’t worry about her as often, and when I do I jump on the computer to check on her.  The anxiety has gone down for all of us.  Mom’s blood pressure is down for the first time in a long time.  I think it is because she is more relaxed and content." Betty M.

"After we put the system in, we discovered that on occasion mom would open the back door to bring the dog in and out late at night.  This frightened us.  What if she slipped on the back stairs while outside?  Or what if she locked herself out by mistake.  Now we are alerted if that door opens late at night, and we can check in via the cameras to make certain she is safely back inside."  Betty M.
