Reeve Foundation Family Emergency Readiness
Stay informed. Stay independent. Stay ready.
Because life doesn’t stop when the unexpected happens.
A working mockup of a readiness app for people living with paralysis, and for the family, friends and caregivers they choose to share it with.
The Reeve Foundation already teaches the paralysis community to make a plan, build a kit and be informed. BEPREPARED Solutions turns that guidance into something that works in the moment.

The core offer
Make a plan. Build a kit. Be informed. Now it works in the moment.
Six promises the app is built around, each one on a screen you can open.
Make a plan · BEREADY
Your plan, before the crisis
Backup power, wheelchair charging, breathing equipment, medications and supplies, an accessible way out, rides, and who will help. Written with your care team, ready when the alert lands.
Be informed · BEAWARE
Know what’s developing where you live
Home, your rehab center, family. Severe weather, power and water outages, road closures and official emergency notices, from public sources.
Build a kit · BEEQUIPPED
Everyday supplies, matched to your plan
Cooling, light, phone charging and a go-bag. Nothing medical: equipment and batteries stay with your care team and suppliers.
You decide
You choose who sees what
The person living with paralysis owns the app. Each person in the support circle sees only the places and plans you share.
Places, not people
We watch the place, never the person
Alerts are about an address, never your movements, your phone or your health. Every alert comes with a receipt of what was checked.
All clear
Every event gets an ending
What happened, who confirmed it and how long it lasted, sent to everyone who got the first alert.
The small things
Twelve small things that keep it calm, and keep you in charge.
Each one is built into the phone above. None of them track where anyone is.
- A pause before severe alertsTwenty seconds and three facts, so you decide with the plan in front of you. Skippable.
- What it means for your setupThe chair charger, the air conditioning, tonight’s breathing support, in plain words.
- One check-in, from you“I’m OK, staying put.” One tap tells your whole circle, so nobody has to ask.
- Considerations, not adviceEquipment steps come from your suppliers and care team. We never estimate battery life.
- Honest estimatesRestoration times are labelled as PECO’s, never ours.
- What Elena seesA preview of your wife’s side of the app, and the list of what she never sees.
- Your support circleWife, sister, aide, neighbor. Each gets the places and the level you set.
- Kits matched to your planHeat and cooling, power and charging, a go-bag. Good, better, best.
- The two-minute drillWhere’s the plan? Where’s the spare charger? Who drives if Elena is in the city?
- Before heat seasonPower station, ramp, cooling towels, the medicines that can’t get warm.
- SeasonsEquipment check-ins, charge day, storm season, a week ahead.
- What we looked atThe receipt behind every alert, and what we never touched.
The shortest version
More awareness, more time and a plan before the crisis, while supporting the independence and dignity of the person at the center of it.
The Reeve Foundation already gives the paralysis community trusted guidance. BEAWARE, BEREADY and BEEQUIPPED turn that guidance into a living capability: awareness when conditions change at the places a person depends on, a plan already in place, and a support network that can act together. Co-branded, white-labeled, or powered by our technology.
