      "question": "When is a home care gateway needed?",
      "shortAnswer": "A gateway is useful when several local devices must exchange events with a platform or when local radio devices need IP or cellular backhaul. Exact protocol and model compatibility must be verified.",

    {
      "question": "How should smoke alarms be selected for senior care?",
      "shortAnswer": "Select a smoke alarm using the applicable market standard, intended installation, alarm audibility, power and maintenance plan, connectivity need and response workflow. Verify the exact model certificate scope.",

    {
      "question": "How are kitchen risks monitored?",
      "shortAnswer": "A project may combine absence reminders, gas alarms, smoke or heat detection and controllable power devices, but each event and automated action requires a documented safety boundary and acceptance test.",

    {
      "question": "What evidence should support a product claim?",
      "shortAnswer": "Use the current model specification, certificate and scope where applicable, interface document, representative sample test, packaging approval and signed project specification. Website text alone is not final evidence.",

    {
      "question": "How is connectivity selected?",
      "shortAnswer": "Choose connectivity from site coverage, power, latency, message volume, infrastructure ownership, roaming, regional radio rules, lifecycle cost and offline behavior rather than using one protocol for every project.",
