Product Details

The SMPL Wandering Alert Kit is a wireless home monitoring system designed to help caregivers living with a person at risk of wandering. The kit includes a door sensor, a motion sensor, a portable pager, and an SOS pendant. When the person opens a monitored door or walks past the motion sensor, the pager vibrates, flashes, and sounds an alert so the caregiver knows immediately, no matter which room they are in. The system uses low-energy radio frequency and requires no Wi-Fi, no smartphone, and no monthly subscription. Installation is tool-free using the included adhesive strips. The pager offers 52 ringtone options with volume adjustable from 25 to 100 dB, and you can assign a distinct ringtone to each sensor so you know which area was triggered. The system can be expanded with up to 20 additional sensors to cover more doors, windows, or rooms. Range: up to 250 feet.

  • The SMPL Wandering Alert Kit is suitable for caregivers who live with a person at risk of wandering due to mild or moderate dementia and need immediate alerts when doors are opened or movement is detected.
  • The SMPL Wandering Alert Kit is suitable for families looking for an affordable home safety system with no monthly fees, no Wi-Fi requirement, and no smartphone needed.
  • The SMPL Wandering Alert Kit is suitable for care communities or home care settings that need expandable wireless monitoring across multiple rooms or exits.

Wandering is one of the most common and concerning behaviors associated with dementia. A person may try to leave the home at night, walk toward an unsafe area, or simply move without the caregiver noticing. For a caregiver who shares the home, the worry of not hearing a door open or not realizing their loved one has left a room can be constant.

We chose the SMPL Wandering Alert Kit because it solves that problem with a straightforward, low-tech approach. There is no app to download, no Wi-Fi to configure, and no monthly fee. The system runs on radio frequency and batteries, so it works in any home regardless of internet access. The pager is portable - the caregiver carries it from room to room and receives an instant alert whenever a sensor is triggered. Assigning different ringtones to each sensor means the caregiver can tell at a glance whether it was the front door, the bedroom hallway, or the back exit.

What also stood out to our team is the expandability. The base kit covers a door and a motion zone, but up to 20 additional sensors can be paired to the same pager. This makes it easy to scale the system as needs change, such as adding sensors to windows or to a bathroom during nighttime hours. The included SOS pendant adds another layer of safety, letting the person press a button to call for help if they feel confused or unsteady.

  • Select a unique ringtone for each sensor through the pager settings so you can distinguish which sensor was activated.

  • Give the SOS pendant to the person to wear around their neck or keep within reach.
