Pressure Pad Alert/Automation Ideas Please

Any and all ideas welcome and appreciated. My mother-in-law has been recently diagnosed with dementia. She took a spill and fractured her ribs. She doesn’t always remember to stay seated and ask for help when it comes to getting out of her chair to use the restroom etc. and she is confined to her bedroom until she heals for a few weeks. We would like a pressure pad with a wireless alarm or notification just in case we don’t hear her stand up. It would also be nice to trigger a lamp to come on if it’s at night. The only current smart devices they have are an Echo and a Show. We’d prefer the wireless alarm be mobile so it can be carried around the house. WiFi signals are strong and limited network congestion. Someone is always there with her in the house. She has a panic pendant but may not think to use it. Any questions, suggestions, anything. Truly grateful for your ideas. I can usually come up with something but we have a lot going on :-)
