Blue Shield Elderly Independence Division

Medical Pendants

Blue Shield has the largest range for any pendant on the market. The wireless pendant has an open-air range of 2,500 feet from the panel. That is 8 football fields away, giving confidence that our loved ones will be in range if they need to push the panic button from anywhere around their property. The pendant has 2-way voice communication, so our trained monitoring professionals can speak directly to the patient that is pressing the panic. We also will notify the emergency contacts to let them know that their loved one has pushed the panic, and we will let them know that an ambulance is on the way. Our trained staff will stay on the line with the patient until someone arrives to help them in person.

Cameras

One of the most dangerous situations for our elderly is falling in or around their home when they are alone. Time is very important as we do not want our family members lying on the ground and not being able to get up after falling. We will install 2-way voice cameras wherever you feel that your family member will be at when they are home by themselves. Here are some of the features that we are proud to provide to you:

1. Live look in: We connect our cameras online so that you can check in on your loved ones as often as you like. Multiple users can check in at that same time.
2. 2-way voice: You can speak directly to your family member anytime by talking through our camera, and they can talk back to you as well.
3. 1-minute recordings: We record all motion in our 1-minute clips and send all video recordings to your desired email. This way, you never lose the footage until you decide to delete your email.

Door Sensors

We will put sensors on the doors leading outside in order to know if they have left the home. We would have real time notifications sent out to you if they open an outside door to leave. We place sensors on the refrigerator, pantry, medicine cabinet and any other device that opens. Every time these are opened a signal gets sent out, to multiple people if desired, in order to track if they are eating, drinking, and taking their meds. Priceless information that is now available to you from Blue Shield Security.

Let Us Help Older Americans Maintain Their Independence

We all want our independence, and none of us want to be a burden to others. With our Independence Program, we can give you the confidence that if anything happens, we will let you know immediately with our devices. If we can extend the amount of time a loved one can stay in their own home, which we all want, then we are excited to be able to provide this solution to a major need for all of us that has an elderly person at home alone.
