How It Works — SeniorConnex

The ecosystem

Four pieces. One promise: continuous, dignified care.

Each component does one thing well and stays out of the way the rest of the time. Together they form a calm baseline of "everything's fine," with instant escalation the moment it isn't.

Wireless sensor

Contactless mmWave radar. Tracks vitals through clothes, blankets, and walls.

EKG band

Optional medical-grade wearable for residents who need cardiac-level tracking.

Mobile app

A glanceable view of vitals and presence — calm, plain-language, no jargon.

SMS alerts

The right person, on their phone, in seconds — no app to install, no pager to carry.

A senior at home, monitored quietly by an unobtrusive sensor.

01 · The wireless sensor

Continuous biometrics, without anything on the body.

micro A small mmWave radar mounts on the wall or ceiling. It detects the senior's heartbeat and location in the room. No microphone. No camera. The resident forgets it's there.

Works through clothing, sheets, and walls — even in the dark
Paired with the watch, it detects heart rate, respiration, presence, and falls
No cameras and no audio — privacy preserved by design
One sensor covers a bedroom; multi-sensor arrays cover larger spaces

02 · The wearable EKG band

For residents who need cardiac-level detail.

When the situation calls for clinical-grade cardiac tracking — post-cardiac event, atrial fibrillation, or a recent change in medication — SeniorConnex offers an optional EKG band. It's lightweight, water-resistant, and pairs automatically with the in-room sensor.

Single-lead EKG

Continuous rhythm tracking with clinical-grade waveforms streamed to the dashboard.

7-day battery

Charges on a magnetic dock once a week. No daily charging cadence, no compliance nag.

Pairs automatically

Snaps onto the wrist, syncs to the in-room sensor, and disappears into the background.

03 · The mobile app

Calm by default. Loud only when it matters.

Open the app and the first thing you see is reassurance. Heart rate, respiration, location are displayed in a simple, easy-to-understand format. If something needs attention, the app clearly indicates it and sends an SMS alert to family and caregivers.

04 · Automated alerts

Fall and emergency detection — escalated in seconds.

When something changes, SeniorConnex doesn't make you read a chart to find out. The system identifies falls and cardiac events at the moment they happen and routes SMS escalation in seconds — to on-shift staff first, and to family on your policy.

Detect

Radar and EKG signals are continuously evaluated against each resident's personal baseline — not a generic population average.

Classify

The system distinguishes a fall from a sit-down, a cardiac event from caffeine, an unusual stillness from a nap. Fewer false alarms means real alarms get taken seriously.

Escalate

SMS goes to the on-shift care team first. Family is notified per the policy you set. Two-way acknowledgment makes sure the message landed with the person who can act.

Document

Every alert, acknowledgment, and resolution is logged — encrypted, time-stamped, and ready for the care-plan review or the family conversation that follows.

Built right

HIPAA-compliant infrastructure. State-of-the-art reliability.

SeniorConnex is built on the kind of backend you'd expect from a system protecting real patients today — because it already is.

AES-256 end-to-end

Every byte from sensor to dashboard is encrypted with HIPAA-compliant AES-256. Audit logs included.

No cameras. No audio.

mmWave radar captures motion, not images. Dignity preserved by physics, not by policy.

In production today

Live deployments protecting real patients right now — on infrastructure designed for clinical-grade uptime.
