David is 58, has complex physical and mental health problems and has lived with a diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia for many years.  He was provided with a Smartwatch set to give silent notifications, a Reader Pen so he can read the letters he receives like appointments and bills, an Amazon Alexa to read him stories and remind him about upcoming appointments, and a Video Carephone for keeping in contact with his friend and linking into his support network and the police. David now feels a lot safer in his own home and when out and about. He is aiming to speak to his friend on a daily basis so they can plan outings and meet up for a coffee. 

Winston is an elderly gentleman who lives in his own home. He has dementia and a history of wandering. provided with a range of Alcove tech to meet the identified needs. Heat and door sensors connected to a smart hub were fitted and Alcove alerts were created on the front door sensor between 10 PM at night and 8 AM in the morning in case of wandering events, along with ‘no movement alerts’. Sensors were able to provide a clear picture of his routine; he would often be up in the early hours and would open and leave open his front door. On one occasion he left his home in the early hours and the alert raised resulted in Winston being found quickly by his Personal Assistant with support from the police.
