If you suddenly start to feel unwell or have an accident and you’re wearing our pendant alarm, help is always close at hand.

We hope you’ll never need our services. But if you do, just press the alarm button which will quickly and easily call for help in an emergency. Within 9 seconds, our highly-trained care team will begin speaking to you through the loudspeaker on your base unit. Then we’ll get you the most appropriate help.

Pendant alarms provide a sense of security and peace of mind for the elderly who live alone or have limited mobility, knowing that they have a lifeline in case of an emergency. In addition, wearing an alarm pendant can boost their confidence and independence, knowing they have a safety net to rely on.

Wear it at home or in the garden.

One of the benefits of pendant alarms for the elderly is that they can be worn both inside the home and outside in the garden.

Worn comfortably around your wrist or on a lanyard; the pendant has a range of up to 100m*, making it ideal for most homes and gardens so that they can still communicate with the monitoring centre even if they are outside the home.

* This is the maximum distance you can be from the base unit while your pendant can still raise the alert.

What does a pendant alarm do?

What does a pendant alarm do<span style=?">

Our pendant alarms for the elderly are designed to keep you safe at home and give you and your loved ones peace of mind.

When you set your alarm and speak to our 24/7 care team, we ask you if you are okay and assess your situation. If necessary, we will alert emergency services and provide immediate assistance. We’ll notify your loved ones of the incident.

What equipment will be provided to me?

There are just two pieces of equipment to get to know as part of your pendant alarm plan.

The ‘Smile’ pendant

  • Wear it like a watch or on a lanyard.
  • Push the button to wirelessly activate the base unit
  • Waterproof. Wear it in the bath or shower.
  • Up to 100m range (pendant to base unit)
  • 18-24 months battery life (dependent on use)

The ‘Novo’ base unit

  • Has an integrated SOS button if your pendant is out of reach

  • Connects to the mains power socket and either the master telephone socket or your broadband router
  • Features a 48 hour battery backup, in the event of a power cut

“From the moment I contacted Telecare 24 I knew it would be a positive experience. So helpful and polite. They can be reached immediately and the person on the end of the telephone has been so helpful. Setting the equipment up was very easy and making the test call was met by a very friendly person at the other end. It has given my aunt some of her confidence back to enable her to walk around the house again.”

Will the pendant alarm help me if I fall?

Our pendant alarm does not have automatic fall detection built-in. It’s simply a button you can press when you need help, which you can wear around your wrist or on a lanyard.

If you are prone to falling or are feeling increasingly unsteady on your feet, look at our fall alarm plan.

How does it work?

If you lose your balance and suffer a heavy fall, push the button on your pendant

Frequently asked questions.

These are some of the most common questions asked about our pendant alarm plan.

When you activate your pendant alarm, we’ll speak to you through the loudspeaker and microphone on the base unit. (You can’t use the pendant to talk to us!)

If we cannot communicate with you via the base unit, we will call your landline phone to ensure everything is okay. If there is no response, we will call keyholders or – if the situation requires – the emergency services.

If you have trouble hearing us when we speak to you through your alarm, we’ll call one of your emergency contacts to check that you are okay.

Yes, you can.

This is an excellent idea if you have someone else living in your home who may also benefit from using a Telecare24 careline alarm, or if you would like another device handy in another location in your home.

If you order an extra pendant for somebody else, we’ll ask you for their medical and emergency contact details as well.

Extra pendants are available at the checkout at an additional cost.

The simple answer is no, as everything is included in your plan.

When you raise an alert for help, your careline alarm unit will place a call to our control centre using an 0844 number*. We can not change it. However, please note that your telephone service provider may charge you for these calls. You should check with your phone provider or visit Ofcom for further details.

*0844 telephone numbers are recommended by Ofcom for contacting organisations such as Telecare24.

You’ll need access to either a master telephone socket (if you still have a traditional ‘analogue’ service) or a broadband router (if you now have a digital home phone service). If you don’t have either one, our GPS plan may be suitable.

The ‘Smile’ pendant has a battery life of 18-24 months, dependent on use.

Our team will automatically be notified when the battery on your ‘Smile’ pendant runs low. When this happens, we’ll reach out to arrange a free replacement.

In the event of a power cut, the ‘Novo’ base unit is features a 48 hour battery backup.

Keep in mind that if there is a power cut and the battery backup in the base unit has run out, the wearable alarm will not do anything when activated.

Epilepsy or dementia can cause changes in a person’s behaviour, movement, or state of consciousness. In addition, individuals with epilepsy or dementia may have problems with falls and memory loss. To ensure that help is available, it is advisable for people with epilepsy or dementia to use a pendant alarm.

The best providers do not mind when you accidentally set off your alarm.
In fact they are happy about it because they know that your device is working and you are safe and sound.

Yes, the pendant alarms for the elderly are IP67 water resistant, and can be dropped into water up to a metre deep for up to half an hour. So you can comfortably wear your pendant alarm when showering.

Pendant alarms are particularly useful for older adults, people with disabilities, or anyone who lives alone and may need assistance in the event of an emergency.
