If you’re trying to support mom or dad as they age, you know the struggle: we want our loved ones to enjoy true elder independence, but we can’t help worrying—especially during those quiet hours when no one’s checking in. What if something’s off, but it isn’t an emergency? How do you respect someone’s autonomy while staying reassured that they’re okay?
At KONVOY, we didn’t set out to start a company. We set out to help our own families close that “worry window.” We’re sons, daughters, grandchildren, and friends who know the panic over a phone left unanswered and the constant balancing act of making sure our family is safe without overstepping boundaries. KONVOY was created by locals who have stood exactly where you are.
Why Elder Independence is Personal to Us
Independence isn’t some loose concept. It’s woven into the daily lives of the elders we cherish. We’ve watched our parents and grandparents thrive when given respect, choices, and a chance to stay at home. Enjoying favorite routines, familiar neighborhoods, and the dignity of self-reliance is an important part of their lives.
But we also saw the other side. The risks of falls, missed medications, or simply spending too much time alone. The ache of worrying whether a “small thing” might become something big. We realized that as much as we wanted to be there 24/7, life (jobs, kids, distance) meant it wasn’t always possible.
The Worry Window: A Gap No One Talks About
Sure, technology tries to help. Regular calls and scheduled visits are great. Medical alert buttons have their place. But let’s be honest: they don’t always feel personal, and those “grey area” moments—the times when something just doesn’t feel right—still keep families up at night. That’s the “worry window”: the uncertain hours between check-ins, when you’re not sure if everything is okay.
KONVOY: The Beating Heart Closing the Worry Window
KONVOY Checks were built by families for families. We blend local, caring, and experienced professionals with supportive technology to gently close the worry window and maintain elder independence.
How it works:
- Sign Up to Request a KONVOY Check: No commitment, no hassle.
- We Send a Local Off-duty 1st Responder: Using their trained background in safety, they’ll do an in-person assessment.
- You Receive Bodycam Footage Straight to Your Phone: Peace of mind is delivered on your terms with an assessment summary, bodycam footage, and helpful information should emergency services need to be utilized.
Get real-time reassurance that your loved one is safe, and your parent or relative feels respected and seen, not monitored or micromanaged. We know firsthand the difference a thoughtful check-in can make: the relief it brings, the dignity it protects, and the genuine connection that grows.

With KONVOY, your family’s worry window shrinks. Seniors get to keep their cherished independence, while families stop waiting for the phone to ring. We’re local, we’re personal, and we’re here because we know exactly what you’re going through.
