CareAlert is a brilliant example of a design that’s extremely aware of its target audience. This night-light helps you monitor and take care of the elderly, but it does so in a way that doesn’t require the elderly to be tech-literate, and it doesn’t use cameras either. The CareAlert and its wide host of sensors help you be aware of the wellbeing of your elderly loved ones. The sensors do a multitude of things, from tracking temperature, air quality, and humidity, to sensing motion, light, and vibrations. Without using cameras or microphones, invading privacy, or capturing any actionable data, the CareAlert gives you a comprehensive overview of your elderly relatives through its smartphone app. Helping you understand if they slept alright, woke up on time, or if and when they went outdoors to run basic errands. Disguised as a simple night-light that plugs into a power socket, the CareAlert is an incredibly well-designed solution that’s relevant to its audience, and respects their privacy too.
Installing CareAlert is as simple as just plugging it into a power socket and setting up the CareAlert Dashboard on your smartphone. If your folks live in a larger home, you may want to plug one into the important rooms of the house, covering a wider area. Once plugged in, CareAlert helps you be there for your folks and monitor/take-care of them without being overly intrusive. Giving them the independence to go about their lives, while allowing you to stay informed of their health and their space, CareAlert does a much more effective job than webcams, smart speakers, or other smart home devices that essentially spy on people by capturing sensitive data. Unlike other smart home devices, CareAlert comes with a one-time cost and a free lifetime monitoring service, requiring zero subscription fees or periodic payments.
CareAlert essentially only monitors two things – movement, and surroundings. Given that elder-folk often live their life in a routine, the CareAlert picks up on it, letting you know if they woke up at an odd hour in the middle of the night, or if they overslept. The motion sensors track movement, giving you an overview of their activity, while other sensors help you monitor their immediate environment, knowing if there’s a change in air quality, temperature, humidity, etc. Install a CareAlert near the door and you’ll even know when they step out and when they got back home. Built into the CareAlert device is a two-way intercom too. You can call your parents/relatives through the CareAlert app and the night-light essentially becomes a speakerphone, allowing you to communicate with them if you can’t get through to them any other way. Moreover, you can even set up voice-message reminders for them, playing back a pre-recorded message to remind them to take their pills after lunch or dinner, or to call you before going to bed. The CareAlert isn’t intrusive, but it fosters communication when necessary, allowing you to remotely stay informed and in touch.
The beauty of the CareAlert lies in the fact that it recognizes its audience well. Designed as an innocuous (and helpful) night-light, the CareAlert doesn’t require the elderly to wear a wearable and constantly have to charge it, or require them to interact with interfaces that can often seem daunting to them. It does its job silently, needs no maintenance, all while also protecting their privacy and celebrating their independence!
