The sad thing is that a federal study that was done about a year ago reported that 60% of all nursing homes had some type of elder abuse-either physical, psychological or verbal. Many of the patients in nursing homes suffer from dementia and Alzheimer’s and so are unable to verbalize to loved ones exactly what happened. Caregivers know this and take advantage of it.

Texas was the first state to authorize the use of hidden cameras to catch elder abuse. We have a large assortment of DVR Hidden Cameras that you can choose from to help you in this situation.

Remote Internet viewing in simple terms is the capability of watching what your camera sees from anywhere in the world over the Internet. There are two major ways to do it. You have to have a DVR that has Internet networkable capability or use an IP camera.

This Outdoor IP Camera for example hooks up to your computer and uses your computer’s hard drive to record the video. The video is then accessible via the IP address of your computer eliminating the need for a separate DVR. So you can login to a computer anywhere in the world and use that IP address and gain access to what the camera sees.

This gives you amazing capability of being in two places at one time. You can watch your employees at your business while you’re at home. You can watch your vacation home from your business. You can watch your children at your home while you’re at work. And there are many other examples of how this can work.

Recently in Dallas, Texas a home burglar got caught on camera breaking into a home and stealing some goods. The video as shown HERE shows clearly what he did and more importantly who he was. It took a few days, but the Dallas police finally found him because of the video. He got convicted and is spending some serious time in jail.

He had prior convictions but he was always released on probation.

The video shows me two things. First, it shows how effective a home surveillance camera can be. He never would’ve been caught without it. The second thing that it shows is at the beginning of the video he’s looking into the home. He’s looking for things of value to steal.

Don’t make it easy for the bad guys. Close your blinds and drapes so people can’t see into your house. Then you have a better chance at keeping what is yours, yours.

A good Home Surveillance System doesn’t need to cost you an arm and a leg.

When burglars go around the neighborhood looking for potential targets, an activity called “casing a neighborhood”, they look for signs and signals from homeowners. For example if they see a sign that says a security system is in place or “beware vicious guard dog” or an NRA sticker, they move onto another location.

Nothing scares a burglar away more than the sound of a barking dog than a security camera. It doesn’t have to be particularly large but it should be big enough to be seen from the street. All of our Professional Security Cameras fall into that category.
