Cerna Healthcare’s "SafePatch” is a safety wearable skin patch that monitors a loved one’s safety and well-being. It is the only safety device in the world that sticks directly to the body, provides Fall Detection, Activity Monitoring and Emergency Messaging. Should there be a medical emergency, the SafePatch send texts and alerts to loved ones and/or professional monitoring staff. The patch is small, light, water resistant and discreet which most people want more than devices that are unsightly and bulky.

SafePatch for Mom and Dad that provides discreet safety and fall detection.

With state-of-the-art electronics and cellular reliability, Nick Payzant, Founder and CEO said, “It’s the most advanced personal senior safety system that exists today, we are using the latest semi-conductors, algorithms, AI and software to build this product.” Nick further explained, “Leveraging technology to assist our most vulnerable helps tremendously in today’s environment where our elders want to live at home and don’t want to deal with frequent recharging and interaction to operate it. My own mother would not wear a watch or pendant, which got me thinking about how to put a device on her that she wouldn’t care about or have to fuss with.” A product that loved ones are comfortable using is vital as family members are increasingly busy and our loved are now alone more often than ever, reports BusinessWire.

The SafePatch with one week’s battery life is paired with powerful software called “FallSoft”, which enables the SafePatch to monitor falls and movement, all while being in a safe environment at home. Alerts and texts are emitted to family members and/or friends immediately should SafePatch send out an SOS, detect a fall, step count and if there is low battery.

SafePatch priced at $99.00 one-time fee for the unit and six month’s supply of replaceable patches, offers flexible program options to suit a range of needs from an elderly person living alone, to a physically disabled person. All plans include: SOS button, fall detection and activity monitoring.
