Personal Alarms for the Elderly
Telecare Choice is an affordable, national provider of personal alarms for the elderly. We're not connected to any local council and aim to provide the nation's elderly and disabled residents with the very best life-saving service. With Telecare Choice there are no contracts. We allow our customers to cancel the rental of their alarm at any point. All we ask is that the equipment is returned if the alarm is no longer needed.
Personal Alarms for the Elderly - What's included?
Personal Alarm Base Unit
Plug & Play - The base unit simply plugs into the telephone socket and a power socket. The telephone then goes into the back of the unit with the adapter provided.
Loudspeaker - The alarm base unit has a built-in loudspeaker, which our monitoring team will use to communicate with the alarm user. This is ideal for those who suffering from hearing problems.
Increased Safety - The alarm will continue to function in a power cut for up to 40-hours on a battery backup.
Phone Use - Incoming phone calls can be answered by pressing the pendant and speaking to the caller over the unit's loudspeaker - a bonus for those with poor mobility.
Sleek Design - The small, discreet alarm base unit will subtly fit nicely in the living room or hallway.
MyAmie Pendant
Wearing Options - The MyAmie Pendant can be worn multiple ways, including around the wrist and neck, as well as on a belt clip.
Comfortable - The MyAmie Pendant fits in with the user's life and can be worn at all times. The pendant's design means that users don't need to worry about accidental alarm calls.
Waterproof - As the bathroom is a hazardous place for the elderly and frail, the MyAmie Pendant is waterproof. This is for use in the bath and shower.
Seven-Year Battery - There's no need to worry about batteries running out. The MyAmie has a battery life of up to seven years, and we'll even send a free replacement when it starts to run low.
Discreet - Wearers of the MyAmie Pendant will feel comfortable wearing it all day long thanks to it's sleek and stylish design.
Set-Up and Use
Telecare's personal alarms for the elderly have been developed using the latest industry technology and it is one of the simplest systems ever created.
The system can be installed and set-up within a few minutes. The base unit simply goes into a power and telephone socket, with the telephone connecting to the back of the unit with an adapter. Push the red button on the alarm base unit and the system's test call will be completed.
Should the alarm user have a fall or require assistance, he or she can push the red button on their pendant - which will be around their neck or wrist. This send an alert through to our 24-hour monitoring centre.
A team member will reply via the base unit loudspeaker, assess the situation and call for help. This commonly involved contacting friends, family and neighbours. An ambulance will also be called for if needed.
Annie, Sunderland
I felt so much better coming out of hospital to a Telecare button. I'd had my knee replaced and was vulnerable to falls. It made me feel safer.
Dan, Cardiff
We've found that the alarm hasn't just benefited Mum's life but ours as well. We worry less knowing she can let people know if there's a problem.
Robert, Nottingham
The alarm has made a huge difference to Mum’s confidence and it definitely brings me a lot of comfort.

For patients at high risk of falls, living independently at home can be a real struggle. Telecare alarms help give them that extra confidence by making sure help is always readily available.
Pricing Plans
Telecare Choice offer two simple price plans to ensure that you can get your personal alarm up and running as soon as possible.
Of course, both of our price plans come with free 24-hour delivery so that you can have your new alarm and pendant installed sooner, rather than later.
Once installed the alarm user will be covered by our 24-hour Monitoring Team. Should they need help, day or night, all they need to do is simply push the Telecare pendant and a member of the team will respond within seconds.
The Monitoring Team will then take appropriate action to ensure the user gets help - whether this is contacting a relative or the emergency services. Ensure help can gain access to the property with a Keysafe.
Protecting Elderly People Across the UK
The elderly and disabled often need special measures to manage the risks associated with living alone.
This can lead to people moving into a home or residential care. We believe that this doesn't need to happen. Our Telecare Alarms assist the elderly and help them to remain safe in the comfort of their own home.
A Telecare Alarm service provides elderly people who live alone with somebody to call for help if they suffer a fall, feel unwell or need some reassurance. Simplicity is at the heart of the Telecare Alarm and our 24-hour service allows elderly people across the UK to remain confident in the comfort of their own home.
Remain independent and join the Telecare Choice community today to ensure that help is always available.
