Worcestershire TeleCare
A caring service for everyone
Telecare Services - Telecare provides
vulnerable people with equipment that can monitor their safety and
well-being at home. We install a discrete base unit which plugs
into a normal telephone socket and a personal alarm trigger which
can be worn as a pendant or on the wrist
When a service user needs to call for help – for example if they
are unwell or have had a fall, they simply press the red button on
their personal alarm trigger or base unit and they will be
immediately connected to our 24 Monitoring & Response
centre.
Their personal details including medical conditions , key
contacts such as next of kin, support workers or doctors is
immediately available to the operator who will arrange for the most
appropriate help to be sent to them
The powerful speaker and microphone in the unit allows the
operator to communicate with the service user even if they are not
close to the unit. The personal alarm trigger will also work in the
garden or outside area immediately surrounding their home.
If they are unable to respond to the operator, we will
immediately alert their named contact or the emergency services as
appropriate.
Using the latest call handling technology, we answer 98.5% of
calls within 60 seconds in accordance with nationally agreed
standards and our operators will stay on the line until help
arrives if required.
