How a wireless Panic Button can upgrade your home care solution

The population of many countries is growing older, and the demand for affordable and easy-to-use home care solutions is rising. With the constant new developments and enhancements in the IoT industry, wireless products provide many opportunities for the home care industry. Develco Products’ wireless Panic Button is a new development in smart home care. With a solution incorporating the Panic Button, you can greatly simplify the alert of healthcare professionals, caretakers, or friends and family in cases of an emergency for your customers.

Enable elderly and disabled people to live at home longer

Develco Products’ wireless Panic Button can be worn around the neck or wrist. With a home care solution that provides elderly or disabled people with a wearable Panic Button, you can enable them to remain relatively independent. With help being only a press of a button away in case of an accident your customers can enjoy their home longer without being afraid of not being able to call for assistance.

Depending on your customers' health, your solution could also include the possibility to attach the Panic Button to the wall. This can be useful for example in the bathroom in cases where it is not necessary to wear the button 24/7. Because many accidents with the elderly happen in the bathroom, it is an ideal location to place a wireless Panic Button. The Panic Button is waterproof, and can be mounted by the shower to ensure it is in reach in case of a fall.

Whether worn or mounted to a bathroom, with a wireless Panic Button you can immensely increase the sense of security not only of elderly or disabled people but also of their friends and family. No matter if your customers are living far away from their elderly family members or want to go on holiday but feel afraid to leave them at home alone, with a Panic Button you can make sure that your customers’ family members have a fast and easy way to call for help in case of an accident.

Facilitate daily life in retirement homes

A wireless Panic Button is not only useful in private homes. In retirement homes, many residents are still mobile and walk around inside and outside of the facilities. With a solution that provides inhabitants with a Panic Button to wear around their arms or neck, you can make the work-life of caretakers easier. As the residents are able to call for help at any time, even if they are not in direct reach of a caretaker, the mounted panic button gives caretakers and residents peace of mind. The residents are provided with a higher level of freedom and the reassurance that help is only a click on a button away

Further the digitalization of hospitals

Most hospitals’ panic and emergency buttons are wired and mounted to the wall. This makes it very costly and time-consuming to replace them in cases of errors. With a wireless Panic Button, hospitals can bring their emergency buttons up to date and facilitate maintenance.

For patients that are not constrained to their beds, you can also provide hospitals with Panic Buttons for patients to wear around the wrist or neck and save on installing multiple wall-mounted emergency buttons, for example in bathrooms.
