Many homeowners experience frustration with smart home systems that don’t fit their needs or integrate seamlessly with their lifestyles. At Rivas Technology Group, we understand that the challenge isn’t just adopting new technology; it’s making it work effectively within the unique context of your home. We focus on delivering customized smart home systems designed to meet your specific requirements and enhance your day-to-day living. Your Lifestyle, Your Smart Home The journey to a smart home begins with a comprehensive understanding of your daily routines, aesthetic preferences, and the unique dynamics of your home environment. Our team dedicates time to discussing your lifestyle in depth and identifying areas where technology can make the most significant impact. This initial consultation is crucial, as it helps us tailor a system that seamlessly integrates into your life, enhancing functionality and comfort. A Day in the Life Without Smart Home Technology Imagine this: your typical morning starts with struggling to wake up because your room stays dark and your shades need manual adjustment. You stumble into the kitchen to manually adjust the lights and thermostat against the morning chill. Then, it’s off to your kids’ rooms to repeat the process, opening shades and turning on lights. Fast forward to leaving for work; you’re already in your car when you realize you forgot to turn off the lights and adjust the thermostat. Now, you have to go back inside. Throughout the day, you worry about whether your kids made it home safely and end up calling to check. At the day’s end, you manually turn off all lights and set the thermostat. This routine, repetitive and manually intensive, is not only inconvenient but also increases your energy bills.
Years ago, the safest place for your elderly parents was a retirement home with 24/7 monitoring. While this was safe for them, it likely wasn’t comfortable or convenient. Being away from the comforts of one’s home can often lead to negative side effects. However, thanks to rapid technological advancements, there are now multiple ways smart devices can grant senior or disabled homeowners more independence, comfort, and convenience. Smart homes can be equipped with easy-to-use devices, empowering users to rely less on caregivers. At Rivas TechGroup, we partner with companies to offer devices that make aging in place positive for everyone. Here are several ways smart homes are aiding disabled and elderly users. Benefits of Smart Home Automation for Seniors Typically, with age comes loss of mobility, forgetfulness, safety and health concerns, and all-around worry about well-being. Though these seem reason enough to move them into your home, it is only sometimes feasible. A significant occurrence of growing older is sacrificing your independence. However, installing smart home devices in seniors’ homes means they can experience a taste of freedom again. Smart home devices allow you to monitor their homes and check in on your loved ones throughout the day. Smart lighting, motorized shades, and security systems are just a few of the solutions that can help ensure the well-being of your loved ones and your peace of mind. Smart Lighting With a lighting control system , seniors can dim any set of lights, turn off all the lights, set an automated “scene,” or change the colors of the lights with a tap of a button on a touchscreen, mobile device, or mounted wall panel, or simply through voice commands. Lighting control is helpful in many scenarios, but it’s perfect for easing the everyday hustle and bustle for seniors. We all know how important lighting is to put us in the right mind. Lights that slowly brighten in the morning can help them wake up on the right side of the bed. Blue lights stimulate the mind, and our bodies respond with energy and attentiveness, making it ideal for mornings. It’s obvious what lighting can do for everyday tasks, but let’s look at a few ways lighting can help seniors.
