How to use this list
• Start with form factor: if someone won’t wear a pendant, jump straight to a watch or radar-based solution.
• Consider backup paths: many “button” systems can add fall detection, but radar/vision systems trigger without a button press.
• Layer smart-assistant services (e.g., Alexa Together) for family visibility without replacing a dedicated PERS.
• For bed-exit risks, pressure pads are still the workhorse — cheap, effective, and loud enough to make a teenager do chores.
