Amazon is launching Alexa Together, a subscription service that allows caregivers to assist and remotely monitor aging family members in their homes, Mobi Health News reports.
The subscription, which Amazon will release later this year in the U.S., will cost $19.99 a month and builds on the company’s Care Hub features that debuted in November 2020.
Alexa Together allows multiple family members or caregivers to check in on an aging loved one. They can set customized alerts, such as a warning in case their family member hasn’t used Alexa for a certain amount of time, and remotely help their loved one, like setting a reminder to take medications or managing a shopping list.
The subscription includes a 24/7 urgent response service, and it’s compatible with third-party fall detection devices. Read more.
