Mary Martin’s mom is just such a patient, who has moved into an advanced state of dementia. Because of her condition, Mary’s mom has to live in a home. As Mary told us, "She frequently gets up at night and can’t find the bathroom by herself. By now, thanks to the motion sensors with remote chime, the staff is alerted the second my mom’s feet hit the floor."

In Mary’s mom’s room, they set up the Hawkeye Motion Sensor on the floor by the leg of her bed so it only sees her feet when she gets up. Also hooked up to that motion sensor they’ve set up a transceiver that turns on a light so there’s no stumbling around in the dark while she’s waiting for one of the staff, who is also alerted when she gets up. In that staff member’s room is a second transceiver with a remote chime that also goes off when Mary’s mom’s foot hits the floor. Mary said "The remote part is nice because otherwise the chime would wake up the other residents.

From there, the staff member tends to Mary’s mom, and when all is done, they put her back into bed. About a minute after she’s nestled, and the movement stops, the light turns itself off.

Mary told us "Before I found your motion detector and accessories, she [Mary’s mom] would be up for several minutes before anybody heard her, and by then, it’s often too late to find the bathroom." Mary also told us "The staff is so pleased with the setup that they want to order more of [your] products for themselves!"
