Keep Elderly Parents Safe with These Top 3 Home Security Devices
1. IP Security Cameras
Seniors living alone are more likely to be targeted by thieves and home invaders. Using a IP home security camera can significantly reduce the risk of burglaries happening in the home and keep your elderly parents safe.
IP cameras are an essential part of any home security system and, apart from deterring potential burglars, it can serve other important functions that allow you to:
- Check in on your parents to see if they are okay via your smartphone
- Allows you to see if the caregiver is doing what he/she should
- Keeps you informed if something serious such as a robbery occurs

Home Automation
A customized home automation system installed by a professional alarm company has the ability to greatly enhance the security features of a home.
With home automation, it’s possible to view and control aspects of your aging parent’s home such as the temperature, lighting and home security system remotely with the touch of a screen, the swipe of a finger and even the sound of your voice.
Some of the incredible features include:
- Emergency Response: This technology provides a panic button that immediately notifies you and authorities in the event of an emergency, including a fall.
- Eyesight & Hearing: Enhanced alarms on doors, doorbells, smoke detectors and appliances are more effective at alerting someone with poor hearing or eyesight about home-related incidents.
- Memory: Forgetfulness in older age can lead to serious safety issues. Smart home capabilities can provide reminders to turn off the coffee pot, automatically lock doors and even provide reminders to take daily medicine.
- Video Monitoring: An IP surveillance camera together with a home automation system allows you to monitor both inside and outside of the home.
3. Smoke detectors
Older adults (age 65 and older) are more than twice as likely to die in fires than the country’s population as a whole. Individuals aged 85 or older are four times as likely to die in a fire than the general population.
That is why fire safety is an essential part of home security for older adults who are living alone. Smoke detectors and fire alarms can provide valuable protection and provide both you and your parents with complete peace of mind.
