For Families

You can't be there every minute. You still want to know they're OK.

Maybe it's your mom across town, your dad 2 states away, or a veteran in your family who lives alone. NestCara helps you stay close, and know when something is wrong, using the TV they already have.

What we heard

Families, caregivers and the people who serve them told us what keeps them up at night.5

You're carrying a lot.

63 million Americans are family caregivers, nearly 50% more than in 2015. 7 in 10 of them also work a job.1

They want to stay home.

About 3 in 4 adults 50 and older want to stay in their homes as long as possible.2

Falls happen, and they don't always tell you.

More than 1 in 4 older people fall each year, and less than half tell their doctor.3

Memory loss changes everything.

About 7.4 million Americans 65 and older are living with Alzheimer's in 2026. Nearly 13 million people give unpaid care to someone with dementia, more than 19 billion hours in 2025.4

Distance and loneliness.

In rural areas, the doctor can be hours away and family can't visit often. People told us their loved ones just need connection.5

Help at home is hard to find.

Paid help is expensive, and there aren't enough workers to provide it.6 About 760,500 home health and personal care aide jobs open up every year.7

How NestCara helps

NestCara turns the TV in the living room into a simple way to check in, get help and see a clinician. You stay in the loop from your phone.

  • A morning check-inThe TV asks how they're feeling. You get a short, plain update, like “Mom checked in this morning and said she feels good.”
  • Video calls with 1 tapCall right to their TV from your phone. Send messages and photos that show up on the screen.
  • Alerts when it mattersIf there's a fall (through Fall Call) or a fire risk at the stove (through FireAvert), the person is told first. Then family and the care team are told, in the order set for that home.
  • Nothing new to learnThe Nest HD plugs into the TV. A simple remote and their voice do the rest.
  • Help for memory lossVideos made to support people living with dementia and Alzheimer's.
  • Their privacy, their sayThe camera and mic have switches on the box. Only the legal representative can sign or change consent. If your loved one can decide for herself, she is her own legal representative and can change consent right on the TV.

What it means for your family

  • Peace of mind, wherever you are.
  • More time being family, and less time checking up.
  • Your loved one stays independent, at home.
  • The care team sees what you see.
  • Help that works for aging parents, veterans and anyone who needs care at home.

Where your family fits

Families sit at the center, next to the person at home. Home care, therapists, clinics and the doctor's office can all connect through the same box, so everyone sees the same picture, with consent.
