For a longer form discussion of the benefits of owning a CareBot for the care giver and the care receiver, please see this article.

Benefits

Cost Effective Monitoring

The CareBot™ MSR monitors the carereceiver . Elderly people in nursing homes receive attention from nurses an average of nine minutes per day. These places are expensive ($45,000 to $60,000 per year) and not always easy or convenient for family members to physically visit. There is a crisis for cost effective assistance. Concern for their parents is one of the main reasons for adult children to purchase an elder care enabled CareBot™ MSR.

Virtual Visits

Working parents of all ages seek assistance in caring for their children as a result of working long hours, and having to commute to and from their workplace. The ability to virtually visit their children from work, during travel, or anywhere they have Internet access is now possible.  Working mothers and fathers can watch their children routinely in a window on their computer monitors while at work.

Automatic Reminders

The CareBot™ MSR reminds the carereceiver to take medication, reminds them that family is coming over soon (or not at all),  It alerts them when unexpected visitors, or intruders are present. It will keep track of doctor’s visits.

Companionship

The CareBot™ MSR is a new kind of companion that always stays close to the carereceiver enabling family and friends to care for them from afar. It will hold various levels of conversation with the carereceiver. The personality, voice, and phrases can be customized.

Automatic Emergency Notification

The CareBot™ MSR alerts them when unexpected visitors, or intruders are present. It notifies designated caregivers when a potentially harmful event has occurred, such as a fall, fire in the home, or the person has simply not been found by the CareBot™ for too long. It responds to calls for help. It can call 911 or before resorting to 911, work its way through a list of designated emergency contacts.
