Are there any agencies that offer granny cams for seniors who live at home and have caregivers?

Over the span of two decades author, columnist and speaker Carol Bradley Bursack cared for a neighbor and six elderly family members. Because of this experience, Bradley Bursack created a portable support group, the book “Minding Our Elders: Caregivers Share Their Personal Stories.” Her sites, www.mindingourelders.com and www.mindingoureldersblogs

None that I know of. You could call your Alzheimer's Association and ask if they know of any help. Good luck.

Sam's club sells cameras. We have several set up around the house and I can get online at anytime and see what is going on. This cost us about 1800.00. If that is out of your budget, do a search for Nanny cams or call Radio Shack. They have those small cameras that are okay and motion activated for under 200.00. Hope this helps.

I used cameras from x10.com and they worked quite well and were very affordable at about $100 a piece. You can setup 'internet' viewing to checkin remotely. The 'ninja' based cameras allow the camera angle to be moved remotely too. And you can record to a VCR if you want to. I had a monitor setup in my bedroom so I could check on Mom without disturbing her, and with the night cams, it was easy to do so.
