What the company publishes
Nomo bundles three things a family usually has to assemble separately: sensors in the home, an app for the people who care about the person in it, and an escalation path to emergency services. The pitch is aimed squarely at the adult child who does not want a camera in a parent's living room and cannot get that parent to wear a pendant.
The alert logic, as described, is a union of three triggers: a detected fall, a pressed button, or no movement for a set period. Two of those three are reliable in the engineering sense. A button works when it is pressed. An absence of movement over a window is a robust signal, and it is the one that catches the case a pendant misses — someone on the floor who is conscious but cannot reach anything.
The first trigger is the one to ask about. "Automatic fall detection" carries an asterisk on Nomo's own page, which means there is a qualifying footnote; we could not retrieve its text and we do not guess at it. Nor does the site publish a sensing method, an accuracy rate or a false-alarm rate. A buyer should ask what physically detects the fall, what the asterisk says, and what happens on a false alarm at 3 a.m.
What we could not confirm
The site publishes prices and shipping terms but never names a country of service. There is no currency symbol qualifier, no shipping destination list, no mention of the United States or Canada in service terms, and no stated data hosting location. The emergency dispatch arrangement is described but the provider is not named, which matters, because dispatch to a Canadian address requires a Canadian arrangement.
In the compare table Nomo sits in the "Canadian availability not confirmed" group.
Frequently asked questions
Does Nomo use cameras?
No. Its site states "No cameras 100% privacy" and describes "camera-free motion-sensing technology".
Does anyone have to wear anything?
Not for the core system. Panic buttons are placed in rooms rather than worn, and a medical ID bracelet is an optional separate purchase.
How does the fall detection work?
Not publicly stated. Nomo says the system offers "Automatic fall detection*" but does not publish the sensing method, an accuracy figure or a false-alarm rate, and the asterisked footnote was not retrievable on the page we checked.
Is Nomo available in Canada?
Not publicly stated. The site advertises free shipping and a 30-day trial but names no country of service.
Where WalledCare fits
WalledCare, made by the publisher of this directory, is the sensor layer only, and it makes a narrower claim than Nomo. It is a camera-free millimetre-wave radar room sensor that reports presence, movement, prolonged stillness and prolonged inactivity, room by room. It does not detect falls, does not measure breathing, and is not a medical device, and it does not dispatch emergency services. Families who want a bundled monitoring service with a dispatch path are describing a different product.
