Telecare sensors use technology to tell us the emergency situation that’s occurring at your home so our experienced team can send the right response.
Telecare will give you extra reassurance that in the event of an accident or emergency, your sensor will automatically alert Reach & Respond even if you are unable to contact us yourself using your pendant.
Telecare sensors include:
Falls detector
Worn around your neck or clipped to clothing, a falls sensor will automatically alert us if you fall.
Bed occupancy sensor
This sensor pad goes under your mattress. If you fall, or if you get out of bed and do not return, it will automatically alert us.
Smoke detector
A smoke detector works in exactly the same way as a normal device but also alerts us in the event of an emergency, rather than relying on you to notice and take action.
Bogus caller button
If you are suspicious that someone knocking on your door is a bogus caller, you can use the button by your front door to alert us so we can check if you are ok and send help if needed.
Temperature extreme sensor
If your home becomes too hot or cold, or if the temperature suddenly changes, this sensor will alert us. This will protect you against burst pipes or home fires, as well as mitigating living conditions if heating is too high or too low.
Flood detector
This alarm will sound to alert you if there is a flood in your home. It will also immediately notify us so we can send assistance.
Carbon monoxide detector
This will sound an alert if it senses carbon monoxide in your home. It will also notify us so we can send assistance.
