Wow, I never considered an Echo (or Apple HomePad, which might be good for folks already accustomed to saying "Siri" instead of "Alexa."). Fall prevention is a major thing in my life with my mom, so I thought I knew plenty, but you added to my knowledge. Thank you, Lauren! PS. Very much understand how you must have felt the first time your Dad fell. Appreciate your sharing that tender moment.

HomePOD. (autocorrect typo)

Yes, whichever smart device your parent has could work! And I feel like our homes (and parents’ homes) will all just keep getting smarter - for better or for worse - so I would expect more and more options for this!

The echo idea is amazing, Lauren. I also appreciated your other ideas and vulnerable shares. It’s so helpful as we navigate the early days over here of navigating parent caring. 🙏
