Do you also need a little more peace of mind?
SoftCaring™ discreetly registers life and activity in the home through small sensors. In the SoftCaring app, you can see that everyday life is carrying on as usual. If no activity is suddenly registered while the person is at home, you are alerted so you can check that everything is okay.
No cameras. No microphones. No wearables. Just small signs that life is carrying on.
SoftCaring subscription: DKK 299 per month.
Professional installation, access to the Securitas 24/7 Control Centre and any on-site response by Securitas response officers are provided by Securitas on behalf of Nova Caring.
Simple reassurance in everyday life
SoftCaring is made for those of us who would like to keep a discreet eye on the everyday life of someone we care about. You can see that there is activity at home, and if things suddenly become unusually quiet, SoftCaring lets you know.
Follow life at home
SoftCaring registers activity automatically. A quick look in the app can give you peace of mind when you can see that there is life and movement at home. The person living there does not have to do anything.
You choose who is involved
Your care circle can include family, friends, neighbours or anyone else you both trust.
If life suddenly goes quiet
If no activity is registered, your care circle is alerted. One of you can then check that everything is okay and help if needed.
Professional backup
Sometimes you are at work, abroad, on holiday or simply too far away. That is why access to the Securitas 24/7 Control Centre is part of SoftCaring.
Small signs of an ordinary day
One of the nicest things about SoftCaring is simply being able to look and see that everyday life is carrying on.
Good morning
There has already been activity at home. Sometimes that is all you need to start your own day with a little more peace of mind.
One quick look
The SoftCaring app shows registered activity. No images. No sound. Just small signs of life at home.
So the call does not always have to begin with: “Are you okay?”
When you already know there has been life at home, the conversation can be about everything else. The day, the weather, a cup of coffee or whatever you normally talk about.
If an alert is raised, it is followed through
Sending an alert is not enough. What matters is that someone responds and finds out whether everything is okay.
An alert should end with an answer
If no activity is registered for the period you have chosen, SoftCaring alerts your care circle.
The same flow can be started by an optional panic button.
The alert is only closed once someone has followed up and the situation has been clarified.
Activity suddenly stops
No activity is registered at home for the period you have chosen.
You are notified
SoftCaring alerts the people you have chosen for your care circle.
One of you follows up
Perhaps you call. Perhaps a neighbour lives nearby. You decide the best way to check that everything is okay.
If none of you can respond
Securitas 24/7 Control Centre is available as professional backup.
Help can come to the door
When needed, a Securitas response officer can be sent to the home.
Only then is the alert closed
The alert remains open until the situation has been followed up and clarified.
You choose who should be involved
Families and everyday lives are different. You decide who should be part of your SoftCaring care circle.
You
You use the SoftCaring app and choose your care circle and how long SoftCaring should wait before alerting you about missing activity.
The person at home
SoftCaring quietly looks after itself in the background. There is no app, watch or device they have to remember to use.
People you trust
Children, siblings, friends, neighbours or others you trust can be included.
Securitas backup
If nobody in the care circle can respond, professional support is available through Securitas.
No one needs to stand alone
Not everyone has family living nearby. Children may live in another part of the country or abroad. A small care circle should not prevent someone from having greater reassurance at home.
Professionally installed and tested in the home
You do not have to work out where sensors should be placed or whether everything is connected correctly. SoftCaring is professionally installed and tested.
Before the visit
Once SoftCaring has been ordered, you will be contacted to arrange a suitable installation time.
During the visit
The sensors are positioned and tested, the app and care circle are set up, and the alert flow is checked before the visit is complete.
We do not leave until everything works
The installation is only complete once the sensors, app and connection have been tested. After that, SoftCaring quietly gets on with its job in the background.
SoftCaring should never replace care It should make more room for it
When you already know there has been life at home, contact does not always have to begin by checking whether everything is okay. The conversation can simply be about life.
And if you need to call for help yourself
SoftCaring works quietly in the background without anyone having to do anything.
Rikke's father Hans is 85 and lives in Slagelse. He has chosen to add a panic button so he can also call for help himself if he ever needs it. That is his hand in the photograph.
One press starts the same SoftCaring alert flow, so the care circle can respond and professional backup is available when needed.
An extra layer of reassurance
The panic button is optional and does not increase the monthly SoftCaring subscription.
Reassurance without surveillance
We do not believe anyone should have to give up their privacy to gain more reassurance.
The person living at home should be able to carry on with life as usual. Those who care about them should be able to gain peace of mind without watching or listening.
No cameras
No photographs. No video. No way to look into the home.
No microphones
No audio recordings. SoftCaring does not listen inside the home.
Only small signs of life
Sensors register activity, such as movement or a fridge door opening. Not what someone is doing, saying or watching.
You decide how much the app should show
You can choose whether the app shows where activity was registered or simply that there has been activity. Some people want a little more detail. Others prefer less. What matters is that it feels right for you.
Choose the Starter Kit that fits the home
Homes are different. Some have one entrance, others have two, three or more. SoftCaring Starter Kits are therefore based on the number of entrances that need to be covered.
Gateway
Motion sensor
Door sensor
Start with the entrances to the home
One front door means Starter Kit 1. A front door plus a terrace or balcony door means Starter Kit 2. A front door, utility-room door and terrace door means Starter Kit 3.
This helps SoftCaring distinguish between someone being at home and someone having left the property.
The kit contains what the home needs
In addition to entrance sensors, SoftCaring includes a Gateway and small sensors placed where everyday activity naturally happens.
You can also add a panic button and additional sensors if needed.
Ordering opens soon
We are currently preparing the different SoftCaring Starter Kits. Soon you will be able to choose the kit that fits the home directly here.
Starter Kit 1, for a home with one entrance, starts from DKK 4,750 including professional installation.
The Starter Kit is purchased once. After that, the SoftCaring subscription is DKK 299 per month.
DKK 299 per month for everyday reassurance

What is included?
The subscription covers the SoftCaring app, ongoing operation, alert flow and access to the Securitas 24/7 Control Centre.
Additional sensors and an optional panic button do not change the monthly subscription. Any professional on-site response is charged separately if required.
Who are we, and why SoftCaring?
We are Lars and Rikke. Both of us care for older people we love, so we know personally how much a little more peace of mind can mean.
Our backgrounds are in shipping. At sea, safety always comes first, and there must always be life on the bridge.
That is why we created SoftCaring.
Do you have questions?
You are always welcome to contact us. You will reach Rikke or Lars, and we are happy to tell you more about SoftCaring and help you work out whether it could be right for you and your family.
