Ambient Assisted Living

Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) is a term used to describe unobtrusive monitoring and support for elderly people to allow them to live as independently as possible. These days, the right technology can be individually adapted and customised to support individuals with the everyday tasks that they might need help with.

As our life expediencies increase, a large percentage of people want to grow old in their own home and to be as self-sufficient as possible - even if some level of care becomes necessary.
Home & Building Automation can help facilitate this by taking care of a range of tasks in the background while also keeping a protective eye out by monitoring for anything unusual.
Not only does this improve people's quality of life, but it can also help to reassure family members that everything is taken care of.
One of the massive advantages of Loxone is that the solution can be individually adapted to suit the exact requirements of a specific person.
Advantages for Care-givers
Of course, AAL automation is great for residents however, it's also great for those who provide care.
Care workers are usually extremely busy, working long hours. By using automation technology some of the weight can be lifted off their shoulders - allowing them to focus on the more crucial areas of their jobs.
For specialist care facilities, including automation in your properties increases the comfort for both residents and careers - meaning that you'll be one of the most sough-after establishments.
Behavior changes
Loxone can be used to recognized behavior changes, such as a significant increase in visits to the bathroom.
Fall detection
Presence can be monitored through the use of a Presence Sensor and/or Door & Window Contacts. If no activity is detected for a certain period of time, an emergency call will be made to a relative or carer using the Caller Service.

Access for emergency services
In an emergency, Loxone can flash the lights and automatically unlock the front door to help the emergency services.
Electrical device monitoring
With Loxone, electrical devices can be monitored and, if necessary, be automatically switched off.
Reminders
To help in keeping to the routine of taking any required medication, Loxone's text-to-speech function can play a reminder at a certain time every day.
