Problem
Home care agencies and care managers often lack continuous, objective data on clients’ daily activities, making it difficult to detect early signs of health decline between visits. Traditional monitoring methods rely on intermittent check‑ins or intrusive devices, which can miss subtle changes in movement, sleep, bathing, or meal preparation.
Solution
Lifeguard provides a passive, privacy‑first monitoring system that unobtrusively tracks everyday living patterns without cameras, microphones, or wearables. Sensors installed in the home capture data on movement, sleep quality, bathing routines, and meal preparation, then generate weekly and monthly summaries highlighting meaningful changes. These insights are delivered to care teams through an easy‑to‑use dashboard, supporting professional judgment and enabling earlier interventions. By offering a clearer picture of wellbeing between visits, Lifeguard helps agencies plan care more precisely and reduce avoidable health events.
Target Audience
Primary customers are home‑care agencies and professional care managers who need continuous, non‑intrusive insight into clients’ daily living patterns to improve care planning and response.
