Assistive living technology for Veterans
You served. Now its time to make everyday life easier.
Talk to your VA hearing care provider about Bellman & Symfon and the listening and alerting solutions that may be right for you. From clearer conversations to important alerts at home, there may be options to help you feel more confident every day.
Alerting Systems
Stay alert, feel more at ease
Hearing aids play an important role, but they are not worn every moment of the day. At night, in the shower, or across the house, important sounds can be easy to miss.
Bellman alerting systems turn everyday events into signals you can see, hear, feel, or receive on your phone.
Wake to a bed shaker or flashing light when alarms or important notifications occur.
Know when someone is at the door, even if you are in another room.
Help you and the people close to you feel more confident that important alerts will not be missed.
More confidence in the place you know best.
Your hearing aids are an important part of your care, but they may not be worn all the time. They come out at night, are not worn in the shower, and may not pick up every important sound from another room. That means vital alerts can still be missed, including a doorbell, phone call, smoke alarm, carbon monoxide alarm, or a loved one calling for help.
Bellman & Symfon systems help fill those gaps by connecting important events to alerts you can see, feel, hear, or receive through mobile notifications.
A simple connection between events and alerts.
A Bellman alerting system uses transmitters and receivers to keep you connected to important events throughout your home.
Transmitters detect activity where it happens. When an event is detected, they send a wireless signal to the receivers in your system.
Receivers turn that signal into an alert you can see, hear, or feel. Depending on the receiver, that may be a bright flashing light, a strong vibration, a loud sound, or a notification on a compatible smart device.
The core system communicates by radio and does not depend on your home's wifi. This keeps the connection direct and reliable, while battery-powered devices and backup batteries in compatible receivers help maintain coverage during a power outage.
