In addition to the Telecare alarm, a range of sensors and other ‘life
saving’ equipment can be supplied and installed to create a
complete, personal, home reassurance system. Here is a selection of
the products some boroughs supply:
 |
KeySafeT
A KeySafeT is fitted to your home and a key safely stored inside, the details of its location and the code are held securely at the Response Centre. A KeySafeT is used in the event of an emergency, the code and location of the KeySafeT will be only given to an authorised person, enabling them to access your property and provide you with immediate care and assistance. KeySafeT not only reduces the time taken to enter your home in an emergency, it also avoids having to utilise the Police to force entry, which can be expensive.

Fall Sensor
A Fall Sensor detects if you have had a serious fall and automatically sends an alarm call to the Response Centre. It is a popular addition to the Telecare alarm unit as it has so many uses for all sorts of personal circumstances.
|
 |
Flood Detector
A Flood Detector provides an early warning by alerting the Response Centre if there is a possible flood in your home. It can be placed by the bath, shower or sink for constant peace of mind.
|
 |
Smoke Detector
A smoke detector provides additional protection by raising an automatic alarm call to the Response Centre if smoke is detected in your home. It's simple and quick to install as no wiring is necessary.
|
 |
Movement Detector
A movement detector can be used to identify the presence of an intruder in your home. Alternatively this device can be used to alert the Response Centre if you are inactive for a prolonged period of time.
|
 |
Bogus Caller Button
An additional alarm button can be installed at your door. If you are unsure about a visitor to your home you can press the button to talk to one of the Operators at the Response Centre.
|
 |
Wireless Carbon Monoxide Detector
This detector provides protection by alerting the Response Centre if dangerous levels of carbon monoxide are found within a property allowing appropriate action to be taken.
|
 |
Temperature Extremes Sensor
This sensor is designed to provide early warning of potentially hazardous temperatures. It detects three specific temperature situations; high, low and rapid rate of rise in temperature, for example if the cooker has been left on.
|
 |
Big Button Phone
The Big Button Phone is specifically designed for people with poor sight, limited dexterity or hearing difficulties. This telephone has large black button keys with white numbering, which are the colours recommended by the RNIB in order to maximise contrast, making it easy to use, particularly for the visually impaired.
The raised handset allows the user to 'scoop' it up when making or receiving calls, increasing the ease of use by limiting any discomfort that the user may otherwise experience by attempting to grip the sides of the handset.
On the corner of the telephone there is a bright visual call indicator, which flashes to signal an incoming call - ideal for those with hearing difficulties.
