A new system that had just recieved FDA clearance is AFrame Digital. They are more if a health monitoring system and do so much more than the pendant systems. Studies show that 90% of seniors will not push the alert button even if they fall. And what happens if they are unable to push a button? AFrame can alert family members or caregivers when the device is not being worn and it looks like a a sports watch so it is more fashionable than clinical. It has fall detection and well as an emergency call button. More and more development on the system is being added and will include a heart rate monitor built into the watch band and GPS for those that may be elopement risks. You can follow them at www.AframeDigital.com. This system is a pro-active approach to monitoring a seniors health, allowing people to stay independent longer.
