Still have questions? We have answers

What is the difference between a GPS tracker (GPS tracking device) and Alerta Patch & Wedge?

GPS locator(Alzheimer's tracker or elderly tracker) can be accurate in a specific environment where cellular speed is fast and has high-speed internet. But even if the internet speed or cellular speed is fast enough, there is always some delay because of data transition.

We know that a short moment is critical for a loved one who has a wandering issue caused by dementia or Alzheimer's in senior care, elderly care, or home care.

Our wearable monitor system uses radio technology and the alarm can sound immediately in an environment without internet connection and cellular service.

And GPS tracking device can be heavy for your loved one and needs a strap or waistband to hold the device. But Alerta patch is lightweight (0.3oz, 8g). And you just need to apply Alerta patch to the body of your loved one.

Does Alerta Patch & Wedge do continuous monitoring 24/7?

Yes. Our elderly monitoring system is designed for a person who has a wandering issue caused by dementia or Alzheimer's and for a caregiver who provides elderly care, companion care, dementia care, or Alzheimer's home care. When Alerta Patch and Alerta Wedge are paired, they do 24/7 monitoring.

Is Alerta patch safe for skin? Is it also waterproof?

Yes. Alerta Patch is safe for skin and also is lightweight & waterproof. Alerta patch uses 3M medical-grade foam tape and adhesives tested for long-term use. However, the patch may contribute to skin irritation for some users. Be sure the Patch placement area is clean and free of hair.

Also, Alerta Patch is water-resistant, so it's ok to bathe or shower.

How long does Alerta Patch last?

Alerta Patch lasts approximately one month with normal usage. We recommend changing the cover of the patch (brown material) after ten days. The cover is included in the kit or refills kit.

Pull off the brown cover from the white device. Then, peel off the adhesive backing from a new Patch cover and apply it to the center of the foam side of the device. The woven white side is exposed and is in contact with the skin.

What is this elderly monitoring system range?

Alerta Patch and Alerta Wedge communicate when they are up to 65 to 90 feet apart, depending on the environment. Beyond this distance, the Wedge will sound an alarm and flash.

Our products are perfect for a home that already has a room monitor for the elderly, but the monitor doesn't have alert alarm systems.

Alerta Patch & Wedge uses a radio band. Is the technology safe?

Yes. Our product complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules, and its operation is subject to two conditions:

*This device may not cause harmful interference.

*This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Is it a good gift for caregivers or gifts for Alzheimer's patients?

Yes, both. We've seen many family caregivers caring for parents with dementia at home with a medical alert device, door alarm, and other elderly monitors. But these don't give them enough peace of mind because these home care solutions are quite far from your loved one.

We've tried to solve this issue and help caregivers who are caring for elderly parents. So we invented our safety technology with wearable/patch style monitor to be closer to your loved one than other elderly monitoring devices or elderly technology.

Our product is more effective with keeping low cost(care money) than wearable technology for elderly in Alzheimer's stores.

Our product can be life-alert alternatives and gifts for people with dementia and also is a perfect gift for a spouse caregiver, sole caregiver, and personal caregiver.

Does Alerta Patch & Wedge also work for kids?

Yes. Our product is also designed for a wandering child. So it can be a reasonable alternative for heavy GPS tracking devices.
