What do you do when your relatives become old and frail, but stubbornly, want to live on their own? It's a good question, but not an easy one to answer. Have you ever considered a home surveillance camera? Probably not. This has not been something that was routinely used in the past. But in today's world, it makes a lot of sense.
There are three good reasons to do this:
Baby Boomers are reaching retirement age every 10 seconds. With that comes new challenges. Their physical and emotional safety is of prime importance to their sons and daughters. They are now the caregivers and have to be vigilant. So many times, the family member is not in good health. Diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia will require more care whether at home or in a nursing home..
These are some of the reasons more and more people are considering hidden surveillance cameras to make sure their family members are taken care of in a loving way. Statistics show that somewhere up to 10 percent of our seniors are potential victims of theft or abuse. Those percentages are meaningless unless they happen to be someone you love.
If you have a career and cannot take care of your family member personally, it will give you peace of mind to know that if there's anything not quite right, you have proof and can take care of the situation immediately.
I live in Texas and we have taken the initiative and passed legislation that will allow "granny cams" in a nursing home or other nursing care facilities. Be sure and talk to an administrator first to ensure that your state allows these to be used.
There are organizations that will provide options for families who need information about security cameras and video cameras. They can be found online, just Google Elder Care safety.
Our society is becoming more aware and sensitive to the fact that we need to take care of our loved ones when they get older. If you find yourself in that situation, why not look into hidden surveillance cameras. They may be just what you need to protect your loved ones when they need it most.
Don't let a family member be a victim!

- To prevent theft from care takers
- Elder abuse prevention
- To give you the peace of mind that if there is an abusive situation, you will have proof and can do something about it
