Care and personal safety support using assistive aids and technology
Personal safety and safety in the home are vitally important to everyone. To enhance safety in the home, there are several alarm systems available that will sound an alert if, for example, smoke or water is detected. Other personal alarm systems can be used to alert for assistance if someone finds themselves in difficulty.
Buddi
Buddi is a mobile personal alarm system that provides assistance wherever and whenever it is needed. It helps active and independent people stay that way. Buddi's innovative use of GPS technology means that the Buddi service is more than a personal alarm service; it also acts as a 24/7 location-finding device. The wearer is free to be as independent as possible, and their carers will never be out of touch with their movements. All Buddi memberships include an automatic fall alert, an emergency alarm, and unlimited online locating. Buddi users, wearers, and members benefit from the support of a dedicated, in-house technical and customer care team that can assist with all aspects of owning a Buddi.
