AMAC and Quiet Care^®

At Pathstone Living, we are committed to using innovative technology to enhance the lives and independence of the people we serve. Following are personal technologies available to seniors living in their own homes AND to Pathstone Crossing and Pathstone Way residents.

AMAC (Personal Emergency Response System)

AMAC is an affordable and easy to use personal response service. Assistance is on the way with one push of a button. AMAC enables people to live independently and confidently in their own home.

• Provides peace of mind 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.
• Easy to install. Easy to use.
• Free activation followed by a monthly charge of $36.

How AMAC Works

1. Summon Help
When a person needs help, the person presses the Personal Help Button which activates the AMAC Home Unit. The unit dials the AMAC Monitoring Center and establishes two-way voice communication.

2. Professional Intervention
Within seconds, an AMAC Monitor with complete access to the person's full profile communicates with the person wearing the AMAC Monitor. S/he asks the person what he or she needs and assesses the situation.

3. Appropriate AMAC Response
The AMAC Monitor then contacts a neighbor, loved one or emergency services to come to the person's assistance based on their specific needs.

4. Closed Loop
The AMAC Monitor will follow up to ensure that help did arrive.

QUIET CARE^®

QuietCare is a featured technological option available to people living in their own homes. It is also included in every assisted living and memory care apartment at Pathstone Living.

• QuietCare functions as a 24 hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week early detection system that lets caregivers and family members know that a loved one is safe. It recognizes emerging problems before they become emergencies.
• The system utilizes small, unobtrusive, strategically placed wireless sensors. It is virtually invisible. No video camera or audio intrudes on our residents' lives.
• Small, wireless motion sensors are strategically placed in key areas, including our customers' bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and/or medication areas.
• Each sensor transmits information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week about our customer's daily living activities to a book-sized base station. Any changes in one's activities are communicated to caregivers and family members via e-mail, cell phone, text message or pager, or through a password-protected web site

What makes QuietCare unique is that it learns each individual's normal behavioral patterns and notes any significant changes from them. The system then transmits this information to caregivers through a completely individualized password protected website, or if the user prefers via pager or a telephone call.

And because it doesn't require a person to wear anything or push anything, it can summon help even when they can't.

Following is an example of the information a person sees when they log on to their loved one's password protected personalized website.
