Our new website is live.
MyCompass just got smarter.

A completely redesigned website. Expanded public resources. And major updates across the GMA MyCompass System, including new Apple Watch capabilities, fall detection, and live health information.

And this is only part of what we have been working on.

New Website

A completely rebuilt GrayMattersAlliance.com

We rebuilt the site around one idea: make it easier to understand what support is available.

Clearer detail on our technology, equipment, services, and MyCompass System, plus new articles.

MyCompass Update

The GMA MyCompass System continues to grow

Give the person more independence while giving the people supporting them better awareness when it matters.

That single idea shapes every release. Our latest update expands the experience across MyCompass, CompassCare, and the Apple Watch.

MyCompass Watch

Live vital information

Relevant health and wellness information from the Watch now flows into the broader MyCompass experience.

Fall detection

Supported fall events help provide additional awareness when a person may need assistance.

Improved location awareness

Location supports safety, context, and caregiver awareness, with privacy and access controls intact.

Better connection across MyCompass

The Watch is now part of the connected MyCompass environment, not a separate device.

The goal is not simply to collect more information. It is to make the information that matters more useful, more timely, and easier to understand.

One Connected Environment

Built for the person and the people around them

The MyCompass System brings together four coordinated experiences.

MyCompass

Independence for the person

Tools built around independence, communication, routines, safety, and everyday life.

CompassCare

Awareness for caregivers

Relevant information and notifications, without another system to monitor.

Nora

Intelligence across the system

Organizes information, surfaces meaningful context, and supports clearer communication.

Command Center

Coordination for organizations

An operational view for authorized teams across locations, services, and individuals.

New Resources

Putting more of what we know into the community

Technology is only useful when people understand how and why to use it. So the new site adds a growing library of articles, not just product pages.

Independence, Technology, and What a Good Day Looks Like

Independence does not mean doing everything alone. How technology supports choice, participation, privacy, and an ordinary day well lived.

Supporting Caregivers Without Adding Burden

Caregivers do not need another dashboard. How technology can reduce guesswork without becoming one more responsibility to manage.

Products & Equipment

Technology is only one part of the solution

Assistive technology, durable and adaptive equipment, monitoring, and mobility. Never the most complex option. Always what actually fits the person.

Let’s Connect

The right support can change what is possible.

The purpose stays the same: greater choice and independence for people, useful awareness for caregivers, and easier coordination for organizations.
