Title: Looking for a Safety Device for Elderly Family Member
Post by: yuliayulia on August 08, 2025, 01:39:02 PM
Has anyone here bought something like this for an elderly parent or grandparent? I'm looking for something reliable that could help in case of a fall or emergency. Would love to hear your thoughts or recommendations!

This is probably not the correct forum for this topic. This is the OPNsense firewall community.

You don't say for which country, but this may be of use?

Don't all the smart watches these days detect falls and possibly voice yells for help, and can be programmed to reach out?

Or phones.
