Evermind, a breakthrough technology available at www.evermind.us, protects those who live alone (such as aging seniors) and provides peace of mind that the loved one is okay by detecting when electrical appliances are switched on and off.

Evermind’s unique, unobtrusive design uses three sensors with built-in wireless Internet to monitor electrical appliances––such as a coffee pot, television or bedside lamp. Family members can receive text messages or email notifications when an appliance is used or not used within a specific time period––primarily when changes in a daily routine could be cause for concern. For example, if an aging grandmother doesn’t turn on the evening news, her grandson will be notified via text and can check on her.

In the United States, more than 11 million people over the age of 65 live alone and more than 61 million have physical or intellectual disabilities and these numbers are growing. In today’s fast-paced society, family members need better ways to check on the health and safety of their aging parents and grandparents or adult children with disabilities.

Evermind is a first-of-its-kind solution that supports independent living while respecting privacy by monitoring daily rituals and signaling that everything is okay when it’s not possible to call or drop by.

Dr. Dave Gilbert, Evermind’s co-founder and CEO, is an experienced technologist and entrepreneur who developed Evermind for his 96-year-old grandmother to be able to stay in her own home. Today, families are using it across America to address a variety of needs and challenges.

“My mother-in-law is very independent, and I respect that,” says Linda, age 70, caregiver to mother-in-law Lois, age 96. “With Evermind, I feel reassured, and I really have peace of mind. Now, when I call her, I can just call her to chat because I already know she’s okay.”
