Aging in Place
| Home The left side of the graphic represents the types of scenarios you might monitor with CloseBy Network. For example, sensors placed throughout the home can let you know if your mother is up and moving about normally in the refrigerator to eat or the medicine cabinet to take medicine; or if the garage door, front door or back door are being opened. The system can also alert you of any dangers, such as the stove being left on, or if she has fallen. Built on the Control4 home automation platform, CloseBy Network uses a combination of advanced sensors and software, tied to a web application. Families choose what to monitor, how to receive the information, and who should be sent alerts. Depending on sensor location, family members and other authorized care-givers can receive alerts when normal behavior patterns change, if there is no activity within a specified time, or if your loved one pushes the “Contact Me” button for help. |
Secure Web Server
Information gathered by the sensors
is then transferred wirelessly to
CloseBy Network’s Secure Web
Server. Here the data is stored and
analyzed. Alerts are generated,
based on information that has been
requested by the Care Network, and
sent via e-mail or a text message to
the designated recipients. A Care
Network member can also monitor
real-time information via the
Internet, view reports online, or
have them sent via email.
Only members of your Care Network
have access to this information,
and you have full control over who
sees the information and what they
see. You can even choose to make
the information unavailable to their
dealer and CloseBy Network support
personnel. The data is sent from the
home to the Secure Web Server via
a secure VPN link. When you log
onto the system to view reports or
real-time monitoring, that
connection is through a secure SSL
browser connection—the same kind
you would use for online banking
transactions.

| Care Network The right side of the graphic represents the Care Network. Through grouping, you control who receives information, what information each one gets, and how they receive it. For example, you can choose to have local family members receive alerts, but not those living out of state. However, all family members could see reports online. You can include neighbors on alerts saying a door has been left open, or a loved one has fallen and needs immediate help. And you can make online reports available to all caregivers or just family members. It is completely up to you. And groupings can be changed at any time. Information can be sent to members of the Care Network in several ways:
