Hi Quadius,
Have your father put his cell phone on vibrate and keep it on him if possible. If your parents cell phone network is tied up at times, they may want to consider other providers as this should not be the case in this day and age unless you live in an area with very poor coverage. You can also do a Google search on "baby monitors for deaf parents" to see a number of devices that use sound, lights or vibrators. The vibrators can be clipped on clothing or worn around the waist. Hope this helps.

I am able to get someone into my room, if there someone home, by using my ECU to activate a chime in another room. My mother is suffering from stage IV lung/liver cancer and has grown extremely weak. In fact she has managed to lose her voice over the last couple of weeks and she's having difficulty getting my father's attention whenever she needs some assistance. To further complicate matters by father is hard of hearing. She has been using a phone to call a cell phone, but sometimes the networks are tied up or the thing doesn't work properly. Does anyone have some ideas on something relatively inexpensive that I can install to help out. Oh yeah, like many elderly people my parents no longer sleep in the same room and my father is almost on the other side of the house. Thanks. I really appreciate your ideas. Quadius
