Harding Medical announced as Atlantic Canadian distributor of this privacy-first, easy-to-install solution.
Halifax, Nova Scotia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 12, 2020) - HomeEXCEPT launches the newest version of its award-winning, non-intrusive monitoring system for independent senior living. HomeEXCEPT uses the latest in sensor technology and advanced machine learning to provide caregivers with optimal awareness without infringing on privacy.
"We built a solution that doesn't watch, listen to, or identify people," says HomeEXCEPT Founder and CEO, John Robertson. "Most home monitoring systems use cameras and listening devices, but HomeEXCEPT is different."

It's a solution that is 100% anonymous - only the subscriber knows the context of who or where is being monitored. The system uses ambient sensors that collect data relating to activities of daily living like movement, the use of mobility assists, medication compliance, toileting, sleeping, and eating habits.
Over time, the system "learns" what routines are normal. On their mobile app, subscribers can check-in on activity any time but will also be notified when there is an unexpected change in routine or increase in risk level. The latest version allows subscribers to add unlimited guests so that families and caregivers can share monitoring responsibilities.
The system is simple to operate and installs in any home with an internet connection. It is completely wireless, delivers right to your door, and does not require a technician. It's up and running quickly for a low monthly fee with no contracts.
"Contactless, predictive monitoring is the future of home care and we look forward to being part of this new way of delivering care," says Janice Edwards, Business Development Manager at Harding Medical. "We believe HomeEXCEPT is the next generation of home safety, integrating everything Harding Medical believes in - patient independence, privacy, and most importantly, safety."
The HomeEXCEPT system bridges the gap between seniors and their caregivers, one that's recently been widened by the new coronavirus. "COVID-19 exposed serious weaknesses in how we approach the challenges of senior living," says Robertson. "In response we will constantly be looking at innovative ways to solve those challenges."
HomeEXCEPT allows for greater connection and understanding of risks associated with seniors living alone. The new version helps caregivers know when a visit is necessary. It's a smart but simple-to-use solution that brings peace of mind when a caregiver can't be there.
