What are home care kits?
Home care kits are bundled monitoring systems that combine alarms, sensors, and connection accessories to support in-home care. Safe-Life home care kits use the same core equipment supplied to facilities, adapted for private homes, short-term hospital discharge, and community care environments. Components can be added, replaced, or connected to nurse call infrastructure where required.
How do home care monitoring kits work?
- A sensor detects movement or an event, such as bed exit or chair exit.
- The sensor connects to a Safe-Life or Cura1 monitor.
- When triggered, the monitor sends an alert locally or to a pager.
- Alerts notify carers so assistance can be provided quickly.
- Extra sensors or accessories can be added as care needs change.
Both wireless and hardwired configurations are available, depending on the home layout and care requirements.
Who are these home care kits for?
- People receiving in-home aged care
- Individuals returning home under hospital-in-the-home programs
- Family members caring for someone at risk of falls
- Community nurses and allied health providers
- Short-term respite or transitional care settings
