Paul, this is very interesting, thank you. Excellent point about the dearth of in-home professional caregivers as a completely separate point from the cost of such services. The Dar.Win system is unique in that it doesn't involve indoor cameras, no wearables are required so no batteries to be recharged, this is a wonderful idea that seems to preserve privacy. The Livi system seems easy to use for up to ten medications. The system requiring a wearable reminds me of the Peacock show Poker Face (crime/comedy throwback to Columbo in the 70's), there's an episode in an ALF where the murder plot involves switching out wearable trackers - I had thought that was a joke but now I see it is a real technology. Would you review GPS enabled trackers that can be used in areas without bluetooth or cell coverage - thinking of those on large ranches or farms and low population-density areas.
Thanks so much for the comment. I’ll do a piece on trackers in areas without Bluetooth or cell coverage - applicable in the mountains of Western North Carolina!
