As our loved ones age, their safety becomes a top priority. Whether they're living independently or in a care facility, having an extra layer of security can provide peace of mind for both them and their families. One invaluable tool for ensuring the well-being of seniors is a personal alarm. In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of choosing, ordering, and setting up a personal alarm—a simple yet effective way to enhance the safety and independence of your elderly loved ones.
Step 1: Choose the Right Personal Alarm
The first step in this journey is selecting the perfect personal alarm for your loved one. With a variety of options available on the market, it's crucial to consider their specific needs and preferences.
- In home vs. out and about: Depending on your loved one's lifestyle, choose between a base unit that plugs in at home and a worn device that works independently. These often have the added bonus of a GPS locator should you need it.
- Fall Detection: Some personal alarms come equipped with fall detection technology, automatically alerting the alarm receiving centre if a fall is detected. This can be especially useful for those at higher risk of accidents.
- Battery Life and Charging: Consider the battery life and charging requirements of the personal alarm. Opt for a device with a long-lasting battery that's easy to recharge.
- Ease of Use: Choose a personal alarm with a user-friendly design. Large buttons, simple interfaces, and clear instructions make the device more accessible for seniors.
Step 2: Order Hassle-Free Online
Once you've identified the perfect personal alarm, the next step is to place an order. The Astraline online platform allows you to easily browse through various options, read product specification, and make an informed decision.
