Caring for the elderly requires constant attention and innovative solutions to support their independence and safety. At KUUS. wanted to alleviate the concerns people have. That’s why we designed GPS watches for the elderly. These watches are the perfect solution when the elderly are just not well enough to walk and are far from needing to go to a retirement home.
What is a GPS Watch?
A GPS watch is a wearable watch that can provide real-time location data thanks to satellite technology. This is especially beneficial for the elderly because it helps them stay connected and safe even when they are away from home. However, the capabilities of these watches go beyond geolocation. The models are equipped with an emergency button that elderly people can use in case of an accident or emergency situation, which allows direct communication with family members or emergency services. In addition, the S1 or S2 watches have features such as a bell function, heart rate monitors, and even fall detection, all of which can help prevent accidents and monitor health.
Features and Functionalities
At KUUS. you will find GPS watches with a range of features designed to give seniors greater peace of mind. Our watches are equipped with location tracking that ensures seniors can always be tracked, should they lose their way. The presence of an emergency button ensures that help can be summoned with a single push in case of emergency. In addition, the wander detection feature helps family members know when their loved one leaves a preset area, which is very helpful for seniors with incipient dementia. For added peace of mind, our watches offer features such as health monitoring that tracks vital statistics, and fall detection that automatically triggers an alarm in the event of a fall.
Importance of Technology for the Elderly
Integrating technology into the care of the elderly is critical to their well-being and independence. Technological tools such as GPS watches enable seniors to confidently engage in activities outside the home, knowing they are not “alone.” Caregivers and family members can use this technology to track the location of their loved ones and act quickly in case of emergencies. This contributes to a better quality of life and a prolonged sense of freedom, while reducing the risk of incidents.
Benefits of a GPS Watch for Seniors
The main benefit of a GPS watch is the safety and peace of mind it provides for both seniors and their loved ones. During moments when every second counts, the watch’s precise location tracking can facilitate rapid response. Users of our watches often share stories about how their GPS watch from Kuus.shop played a life-saving role. Nick van de Pas writes about the S2:
“User-friendly watch. Setting up was very easy with the app. Also nice that you can video call with the watch and that it has a sos button on it for when something happens.
The watch is also very user-friendly, all the buttons are nice and big so Grandpa can easily find everything and press it without pressing the wrong button.”
Support in Daily Living
The practical applications of a GPS watch are limitless. Seniors can resume their daily routines with a renewed sense of confidence, knowing they are supported by a reliable device. The watch serves as a personal assistant that guides them in their walks, appointments and social gatherings, while keeping an eye on their health. The presence of location tracking ensures that, should they become disoriented, their location can be easily ascertained by their caregivers or family members.
