Personal Alarms - Taking Care

Taking Care support the elderly to live independently at home with personal alarms and telecare products providing 24/7 support.

Personal alarms connect the alarm holder to the 24 hour response centre at the press of a button should they suffer a fall or medical emergency. The response centre will contact the alarm holder using the alarm's loudspeaker. If further assistance is required, the response centre will contact the emergency services or keyholders.

Customers can enhance their personal alarm service by adding fall detectors, GPS personal alarms, and dementia trackers.

For customers needing additional support, smart home monitoring packages are also available.
