INDEPENDENT
LIVING
Worried about someone living alone? In New Zealand 30% of over 65s live alone.
The elderly are usually fiercely independent and don’t want to bother to others. We help them to maintain their independence for longer with the unobtrusive support they need to stay safe and well 24/7, giving themselves and their families that peace of mind.
With our suite of smart health, wellbeing, and safety solutions, vulnerable people can maintain their independence. Being proactive and predictive these solutions mean that you’re no longer caught off guard with changes to health conditions or safety events, in many situations, smart decisions can be made before an incident occurs. Using rule-based notifications, health professionals, carers and whanau have peace of mind knowing that they’ll be informed about changes to health or incidents in real-time.

Meet Peter
We had Vigil Care Memo Hub installed into dad’s house last year, as he is getting older and recently had his right hip replaced. I couldn’t be there full-time and he did not want to stay with us ‘being a bother and getting in the way’ as he puts it. So, for a good middle ground; him not losing their independence and still feeling safe, and peace of mind for us we installed Memo Hub for 24/7 monitoring as well as having home help to get him up and ready for the day.
It gave my dad the freedom to stay at home and recover but also the security that if anything happened, like a fall or home help not arriving to help him get up and ready in the morning, I would know and help would be on its way.
