MODERATORS
Elderly adults living alone may be a legitimate case. There’s not a lot of good options for that scenario.
Even helpful when they aren't alone tbh, just going downstairs into the basement to do some laundry could be an issue - some of the medical equipment would sound like a tornado siren, others would beep-boop like a new dishwasher or washing machine/dryer finishing.
So the cameras were pretty handy even with people around for when we had to go to another room/floor.
