Els Support and Home Network Unveil HN Hello Light
In a significant move to bolster support for elderly residents in rental properties, Els Support Co., Ltd. has officially launched the
HN Hello Light service in collaboration with Home Network Co., Ltd. This initiative aims to integrate rent payment guarantees with a proactive monitoring service to enhance security for elderly tenants living alone.
Addressing the Needs of Elderly Residents
With the growing number of elderly individuals living alone in Japan, there is an increasing demand from rental properties for services tailored to their needs. Landlords and property management companies often face challenges and apprehensions regarding their capacity to monitor tenants' well-being and respond to emergencies. By combining rent payment guarantees with oversight services, Els Support seeks to alleviate these concerns, creating a more secure living environment for all involved.
Background of the Initiative
Recognized by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism as a certified rent guarantee company, Els Support has consistently aimed at solving housing-related issues from the perspective of support services. The launch of
HN Hello Light is an extension of these efforts, providing a system that allows for continuous monitoring of tenants, specifically targeting the vulnerable elderly demographic.
How HN Hello Light Works
The heart of the HN Hello Light service lies in the innovative use of IoT technology, specifically the
Hello Light smart bulb developed by Hello Technologies. This bulb is capable of communicating its operational status, allowing the service to detect any irregularities that may signal an emergency. If the bulb exhibits unusual behavior, the service immediately triggers a wellness check by Home Network professionals.
Key Features of HN Hello Light
1.
Seamless Integration: Home Network will handle the installation of the Hello Light bulbs, ensuring that landlords and property managers do not incur additional operational burdens. Contracts and payments for the service will be streamlined together with existing rent guarantees, minimizing hassle.
2.
Comprehensive Monitoring: In addition to detecting unusual light patterns, the service incorporates a mechanism for the security company to respond promptly to alerts. This enables them to conduct on-site checks, including unlocking doors to verify tenant safety as needed, ensuring swift action in emergencies.
3.
Enhanced Security for All: By pairing monitoring services with rent guarantees, the HN Hello Light system aims to assuage the worries of landlords and property managers, promoting smoother transitions for elderly individuals and other vulnerable groups into rental accommodations.
It is important to note, however, that while this service is designed to enhance monitoring, it does not guarantee the health or safety of tenants in emergencies.
Looking Ahead
Els Support is committed to further strengthening collaborations with Home Network and other partners to develop additional value-added services that integrate both guarantee services and support systems. They aim to set a new standard in the rental housing market, one that balances security and assistance, ensuring that everyone can choose their homes with confidence.
