Telecare services

What does it do?

Using Telecare can improve and maintain wellbeing; self-esteem;
independence; and autonomy, enabling you to live safely and securely at
home. It is used to support you and your family when living with any
care or health issues you may have.

Who it is for?

Telecare uses a range of sensors, matched to your individual needs to
assist you to live at home, if you are vulnerable and need support. The
sensors can be linked to a lifeline (a kind of telephone) that is used
to summon help if required.
