OAK BROOK, Ill., Nov. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Chamberlain Group, the trusted leader in smart access solutions, is proud to announce its latest smart home innovation – the myQ Smart Garage® Video Keypad – has been honored with the coveted Good Housekeeping 2023 Home Reno Award. Since its 2023 spring debut, the myQ Smart Garage Video Keypad has fast become a smart home must-have. And, according to Good Housekeeping, it’s a product that will help you nail your next home improvement project.

 

A simple to install smart home upgrade, the Smart Garage Video Keypad replaces your old garage keypad (numeric pad mounted outside garage door) so you can SEE and CONTROL who opens your home’s busiest entryway. This innovative device includes a high-definition camera to help enhance the security of your home while empowering you to effortlessly manage access. It works with the highly rated (and free!) myQ app, where you can create and manage personalized PIN codes, set limits on days and times when codes can be used, get notifications when the garage is accessed, and be alerted when someone or something is detected in your driveway. No more worrying about lost keys or unauthorized entries — with the myQ Smart Garage Video Keypad you are in control. 

“The garage is the primary entry point for tens of millions of Americans — no surprise given that the space is attached to the home in so many cases. So, it was only a matter of time before we started seeing video keypads for the space, akin to the video doorbells that have become ubiquitous at front doors in the last decade,” said Dan DiClerico, Director of Home Improvement & Outdoor at the Good Housekeeping Institute. “Setup was straightforward. We also liked that if you pair the myQ Video Keypad with a myQ Connected Garage Door Opener (like the Chamberlain Secure View that won a 2022 Home Reno Award) you can let visitors in by opening the garage door remotely through the myQ app.”

The myQ Smart Garage Video Keypad is compatible with LiftMaster, Chamberlain, and Craftsman garage door openers installed after 1993 that use photoelectronic sensors. Unlock even more features when you pair it with a myQ Connected Garage Door Opener, including the ability to open/close your garage door from anywhere and the ability to turn your garage into a secure package delivery drop–off location to outsmart porch pirates. Most homeowners already have a smart garage door opener and do not realize it. Simply download the myQ app and tap “Check Compatibility” to quickly find out.

Key features of the myQ Smart Garage Video Keypad:

Personalize Access: Enhance the safety of your home, while making it easy to get in. Create unique PIN codes and schedule access for family, guests and service providers with your myQ app – anytime, from anywhere.Visual Confirmations: Get peace of mind by seeing that your loved ones have arrived home safe. The built-in camera quickly detects motion and provides an ultra-wide 160º field-of-view around the garage so you know who is coming and going. Additional features like Person Detection, rich notifications and video storage can be accessed through a Video Subscription Plan, which is free for the first 30 days.Meaningful Notifications: Get real-time alerts when PIN codes have been used. Reliable myQ notifications take the place of forgetful texts and eliminate any worries around the kids getting home safely.2-Way Audio: Visitors can use the call button on the Smart Garage Video Keypad to make calls just like a video doorbell. When homeowners receive a myQ notification that someone is calling, they can access a live video stream and communicate with the caller using the device’s two-way communication.

“This recognition by Good Housekeeping is a testament to our unwavering commitment to delivering innovative, user-friendly smart home solutions that will improve the home,” said Brendan Lyons, Chamberlain Group’s Senior Vice President, Residential Business. “The Smart Garage Video Keypad is an essential addition for anyone planning a home improvement project or just looking to enhance the security of their home.”

The award selection process was run by home building and engineering experts through the Good Housekeeping Institute Home Improvement & Outdoor Lab, a trusted resource for millions of homeowners looking to make their homes more beautiful, functional, safe and efficient. The myQ Smart Garage Video Keypad underwent months of rigorous testing to be considered for the Home Reno Award, including performance-based lab tests and in-home consumer reviews. Through more than 5,000 testing hours, Good Housekeeping experts and consumer testers took a close look at the scores of submissions that poured into the Home Improvement & Outdoor Lab. Only products that truly make the home better — whether easier to operate, more energy-efficient, safer, more stylish or some combination of them all — earned a place on the Home Reno Award’s list of winners.

By

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Global Ultrasound Institute (GUSI) is proud to announce the launch of the GUSI Fellowships Platform, an innovative online platform designed to empower learners around the world to achieve confidence and competency in point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). With a holistic, device-independent approach that includes comprehensive evidence-based education, personalized mentorship from world-class POCUS educators, detailed scan review feedback, quantitative assessments, and CME certification, GUSI is setting a new standard in POCUS education.

“GUSI’s online didactics are the best that I have seen. And what I like most about the fellowship were the 1:1 sessions and being able to interact with GUSI expert faculty who have many years of experience in POCUS. And you get to pick their brains and they get to instruct you 1:1. I have used the training I received from GUSI to do much more POCUS clinically and further impact my patients lives.”

Dr. James Wilcox,
Assistant POCUS Director, Indiana University School of Medicine
Adjunct Professor and Assistant Professor of Medicine

“Our mission at GUSI is to democratize access to high-quality ultrasound training,” said Dr. Kevin Bergman and Dr. Mena Ramos, Co-CEOs of Global Ultrasound Institute. “The GUSI Fellowships Platform enables learners from diverse backgrounds to enhance their skills in a supportive, flexible environment, making it easier than ever to reach their POCUS goals.”

With training options covering 38 different scan types, learners can expect personalized 1:1 mentorship with expert POCUS educators who provide timely feedback on practice scans.

“The GUSI fellowship mentors are the best: patient, kind, knowledgeable, experienced, and supportive. GUSI provided education in the areas I wanted and needed to obtain and in my home/office environment not requiring multiple trips around the country. It is not just the way course work is presented – learning is made easier by the support provided to each student.”

Dr. Glenda Patterson
Core Faculty, University of Arkansas Northwest Internal Medicine Residency
Physician, Veterans Health Care of the Ozarks
Board-certified in Internal Medicine, Pulmonary Medicine, and Critical Care Medicine

The GUSI Fellowships Platform features a scalable software system designed to monitor and track performance, ensuring learners can effectively measure their progress.

GUSI understands the challenges faced by healthcare professionals seeking to enhance their ultrasound skills amid demanding schedules. GUSI addresses these concerns with flexible scheduling options, allowing learners to progress at their own pace while balancing their professional and personal commitments. This adaptability and virtual experience is crucial for fostering a culture of continuous learning and skill development.

“I went from not being able to hold the probe to someone who can scan and diagnosing and finding pathologies. I worked with Dr. Milne-Price and she was amazing! She sharpened my skills and we did sessions of live scanning over Zoom. I feel confident in my skills now to scan on my own.”

Dr. Dalea Al-Hawarri
Faculty, Bryn Mawr Family Medicine Residency

As healthcare continues to evolve, the demand for proficient ultrasound practitioners has never been greater. GUSI is not only committed to providing exceptional education but also aims to inspire a new generation of healthcare professionals who can leverage POCUS to improve patient outcomes globally.
