Monitoring is introduced only after a Home Safety Review completed by our nurse founder.

Why environmental monitoring works

📉

Patterns precede problems

Changes in bathroom frequency, sleep patterns, and daily movement often appear days or weeks before visible health issues.

🔕

Passive sensing, fewer false alarms

Unlike wearables that depend on compliance, environmental sensors work silently in the background — no buttons to press, no devices to charge.

⚡

Earlier intervention, better outcomes

Families who notice changes early can respond calmly — before falls, infections, or rapid decline force emergency decisions.

Monitoring works best after the home is safer. That's why we recommend starting with a Home Safety Review.

The financial case for staying home

Monitoring isn't just about safety — it's about preserving independence and protecting your family's finances.

StillWell Monitoring $150–$399 one-time devices + hub + $0–$99/mo Essential to Premium
Assisted Living $5K–$8K/mo $60K–$96K/year
Memory Care $8K–$12K/mo $96K–$144K/year

2–4 years

Families using passive monitoring delay facility placement by an average of 2–4 years — saving $120K–$192K.

Keeping them safe at home: as low as $0–$99/month.
Moving them to a facility: $5,000–$8,000/month.

How the response workflow works

StillWell supports a response workflow defined by the family.
When meaningful changes are detected, notifications are routed to the people you choose — in the order you choose.

1

Detect

Sensors notice a meaningful change in daily patterns

→
2

Notify

Designated contacts receive information you define

→
3

Decide

Family chooses what action, if any, to take

StillWell routes information to the people you choose. You decide what happens next.

How Monitoring Works

1

Quiet Sensors

Nurse installing small wireless motion sensor on wall using adhesive — no tools needed

Small, unobtrusive sensors track motion, activity patterns, and routine changes — not every movement.

2

Pattern Learning

The system learns what's normal for your loved one, so it can spot meaningful changes.

3

Smart Alerts

You're notified when something *actually matters* — not every time they walk to the kitchen.

4

Family Dashboard

Tablet showing simple monitoring dashboard with green status indicators

A simple app gives you visibility into daily wellness — on your terms.

What Monitoring Isn't

✕ Not constant surveillance or tracking
✕ Not "Big Brother" in the home
✕ Not alerts for every single movement

Sensors first, cameras optional. We designed StillWell Health to preserve independence and dignity. Learn more about our privacy-first approach.

Who gets notified?

Notifications go to family members and designated contacts you choose. StillWell Health is not a 24/7 monitoring center — we help you set up the system and configure notifications, but you control who is notified and when.

The response workflow means we notify your designated contacts in sequence if initial notifications aren't acknowledged. For medical emergencies, always dial 911.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is non-wearable senior monitoring?

Non-wearable monitoring uses discreet sensors placed around the home to track daily patterns like movement, sleep, and routine — without requiring seniors to wear devices or remember to charge anything.

What does monitoring cost?

We offer two options. Our Essential plan uses quality consumer-grade sensors starting at $150–$300 one-time with $0–$20/month in optional app fees. Our Premium plan, powered by EnvoyatHome, is $399 one-time with $99/month — including 8 professional sensors, behavioral analysis, cellular backup, and full local support.

Can I start with the budget option and upgrade later?

Absolutely. Many families start with Essential monitoring to get comfortable, then upgrade to Premium when they're ready. We handle the entire transition — no hassle, no gaps in coverage.

Is the premium system worth the extra cost?

For most families — especially in rural areas — yes. Premium monitoring includes cellular backup (works even when internet is down), real-time behavioral analysis that detects subtle changes in daily routines, and full local installation and support from StillWell. But we never push it — we'll help you decide during your assessment.

Do you install both options?

Yes. We handle installation, training, and ongoing support for both Essential and Premium systems. You're never left to figure it out alone.

Can I buy EnvoyatHome directly?

Yes, EnvoyatHome offers direct subscriptions. However, working with StillWell gives you in-person installation (critical for rural homes), a professional safety assessment, personalized sensor placement, and ongoing local troubleshooting and support.

Does StillWell monitoring use cameras?

No. Both our Essential and Premium systems are sensor-based with no cameras or microphones. Cameras are optional add-ons that some families choose for specific high-risk areas like stairways.

What is the best monitoring system for elderly parents?

The best system depends on your family's needs and budget. Our Essential option is great for tech-savvy families testing the waters. Our Premium option (powered by EnvoyatHome) is best for families wanting maximum protection with behavioral insights and cellular reliability. We help you decide during your free in-home assessment.

The best monitoring system is the one that actually gets used.

Let's find the right one for your family. Start with a Home Safety Review — we'll walk through both options in your home and help you decide.
