The Unlocked Door: A Silent Challenge for Families with Elderly Loved Ones

How Kubu helps to solve the Challenge of unlocked doors for families with Elderly Loved Ones

It’s a quiet evening in a typical British neighbourhood. The streets are lined with homes filled with families, each with their own stories, joys, and challenges. In one such home, an elderly gentleman named George, diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, lives with the memories of a life well-lived. But as the sun sets, a recurring issue emerges: George often leaves his front door unlocked or, on some occasions, wide open.

This isn’t just George’s story. Across the UK, and indeed the world, countless families grapple with the anxiety and fear that their elderly loved ones, especially those battling cognitive conditions, might inadvertently compromise their safety by leaving doors unlocked or open. A quick glance at forums like the Alzheimer’s Society and AgingCare reveals heart-wrenching discussions among family members desperate for solutions. They share stories of sleepless nights, constant worry, and the relentless need to check and double-check.

“Mum’s been leaving the front door open again. I’m at my wit’s end. What if someone enters the house? What if she wanders out?” writes a concerned daughter on the Alzheimer’s Society forum.

Another post on AgingCare echoes similar sentiments: “Every day, I fear getting a call about an accident or worse because dad left the door open. It’s a constant source of stress.”
