Determining the daily routine
How is the daily routine determined?
The movements of the elderly person are registered by a motion sensor in the home and by the elderly person’s mobile phone. This measurement data is used to determine the daily routine.
How many motion sensors are needed in the home?
Basically, one sensor is sufficient. This sensor is placed in a strategic location in the home. This is a place where the elderly person is often present (such as a living/dining room) or a place that is frequently passed (such as a hallway). With an optional extra sensor (for example, in the hallway on the first floor), the daily routine can be determined more accurately.
Do I need a smartphone as an elderly person?
A smartphone is recommended, but not necessary. For registering movements, a sensor is sufficient. The smartphone is also used to determine whether the elderly person is at home or away. If the elderly person does not often leave the house, or if the absence pattern is regular, then a smartphone is not needed.
What does the sensor look like?
The sensor is compact, unobtrusive, and wireless. The sensor is about the size of a matchbox.
Does the system work if the elderly person has a pet?
Movement from pets interferes with the operation of the system. Mantie is therefore intended for people who live alone, without a (live-in) partner or pet.
Do you also provide an alarm button?
An alarm button is optional and can be supplied if desired. However, an alarm button has limitations and is not necessary for the system to function. It is an extra option for the elderly person to inform caregivers.
Provided service
What service does Mantie provide?
Mantie provides delivery, maintenance, and support for the described system. Caregivers themselves must take action if the system signals a deviation in the daily routine. Mantie does not provide an alarm service and is not a replacement for professional care.
