Awareness for Families
Without Surveillance

Resources for Geriatric Care Managers

What This Is

This page explains an awareness option, Alerta Home, that families sometimes explore when working with geriatric care managers.

Geriatric care managers are often asked how families can stay informed between visits or assessments—without introducing tools that feel intrusive or overwhelming.

Alerta Home is a passive awareness system designed to provide context about movements or activities, without cameras, recorders, or wearables.

Who This Is For

  • Adult children coordinating care remotely.
  • Families working with a geriatric care manager.
  • Individuals who spend time alone between visits.
  • Families seeking additional context between assessments.
  • Families prioritizing consent, dignity, and autonomy.

When Families Typically Consider This

  • Between scheduled care management visits.
  • During periods of transition or reassessment, such as after hospital or rehabe discharge.
  • When routines appear to be changing gradually.
  • When families want context without increasing oversight.

How Geriatric Care Managers
Use This Resource

Use of this resource is always optional. Care managers may share this resource:

  • As an informational resource for families.
  • To support informed discussions between scheduled visits.
  • As a situational awareness option that provides context over time.
  • To help families gather context before escalating services or making premature placement decisions.

When To Introduce It

  • After a fall, hospitalization, or discharge.
  • When families request reassurance tools between visits.
  • When care plans are stable but additional context or monitoring is requested.
  • When noticeable changes in daily routines begin to emerge.
