Overview
The My Care Companion home care monitoring system by Thomashilfen is a family-oriented solution for monitoring bed presence, movement, position and moisture to support daily care at home. Status is presented using a clear traffic‑light scheme and important changes trigger push notifications to relatives’ smartphones so caregivers stay informed and coordinated.

Main functions

• Bed-exit alarm
• Positioning/turning interval reminder
• Lack-of-movement alarm
• Moisture detection alarm
• Family support network with push notifications and notification history
• Optional family emergency call (emergency button, bracelet, necklace)

System composition
The system comprises four main parts: the textile bed pad (sensor overlay placed on the mattress), the control box (interprets pad status), the Care Companion Gateway (transmits status and optional emergency calls to the network) and the free ThevoSmart mobile app for operation and monitoring.
