If the facility has WiFi, wouldn’t people just get a Nestcam for $200 and the cloud storage subscription for $10/mo? Or at least that would set the expectations for what you could charge?

Greg Harris, D-Chicago, and Sen. Terry Link, D-Waukegan, requires consent from residents and their roommates for the electronic devices that must be purchased, installed and maintained by residents. The state will assist residents who cannot afford the cost of a device." Getting in on this state money might be worth looking into. A UPS with a couple cameras and DVR in tamper proof case with those Kensington locks. Nice cheap, reproducable kits, self installable (maintenance can install tamper proof connectors for the kensington hook), on a lease. Big red recording light on the top with a label saying "If RED light is off call xxx-xxx-xxxx" Patient family has a secondary key to adjust the cameras, Leasor has the combination to the master case, openable upon request (and of course for a nominal site fee). Optional external touchscreen LCD viewing panel with read only privilege as an upgrade option (for a nominal fee). alot of nominal fee options for something like this. If you're a managed services provider, this is a good way to get in the door on a maintenance contract for the overall IT of the facility, though I wonder if the wording in the law would prohibit that as at that point you may be considered a representative of the nursing home.

The biggest problem is people see they can get 8-16 camera dvr systems often wireless for 2-400 bucks online and want to know why youre wanting 1-2k They always get what they pay for, but thats where the money is at, they get the cheap one and have their nephew install it, and you make your 1-2k on service charges when they end up calling you anyway to help them figure stuff out. Remember while youre making repairs to the garbage to quietly build out your own infrastructure for the system they ultimately buy from you to come back in and install correctly for an additional 1-2k On Wed, Jan 6, 2016 at 4:52 PM, Jaime Solorza <[email protected]> wrote: to be a security company.yes.........you are setting up private systems and they monitor themselves. you are just an installer and off site back up....i only install and set up....i don't offer back up services.
