Send Wellness Check-ins to the wrists of loved ones
Caregivers receive vital health information, location and peace of mind with ElderCheck
ElderCheck automates caregiver-elder check-ins, ensuring consistent communication and vital health data sharing
TRUMBULL, CT, UNITED STATES, August 22, 2024 /EINPresswire / -- FallCall Solutions, a leading innovator in app-based medical alert
technology for Apple Watch,
Iphone and Android, announced today the international launch of ElderCheck Now in five new countries: Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. ElderCheck addresses the global epidemic of older adult social isolation by allowing busy caregivers to schedule electronic wellbeing check-ins with their loved one on their devices.
“Loneliness affects hundreds of thousands of people and increases the risk of depression, dementia and premature death,” says Dr. Shea Gregg, President and Founder of FallCall Solutions.“At the same time, caregivers are more stressed than ever trying to make ends meet and they may forget to reach out to Mom or Dad regularly. ElderCheck Now makes this important communication seamless.”
By leveraging the health capabilities unique to Apple Watch and iPhone, ElderCheck Now allows caregivers to securely pair with a loved-one's mobile device or watch and send a scheduled wellbeing check-in that asks,“Are you OK?” The recipient simply responds by tapping“I'm OK” or“Call Me.” From this, the caregiver will receive recent heart rate and location information, in addition to their loved one's response. If“Call Me” is requested, tapping the phone icon on the caregiver screen will immediately initiate a phone call.
“For the thousands that have been using ElderCheck in the United States over the past eight years, the scheduled check-in has become a transformative reminder that we all can benefit from taking the time to communicate with those we care about. Given the success of this simple, electronic tool that fosters relationships, we look forward to making it available to those around the world.”
ElderCheck Now will be available starting this week in the App Store for $2.99 USD in Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. Its update will include new features for the United States. Further international launches are expected.
