Emergency Contacts play a vital role in our life-saving Personal Alarm service, so it's important that you choose the correct people to be yours. These select few will be contacted by our Response Team in an emergency.
Choosing your Emergency Contacts
After purchasing your Personal Alarm, you will instantly receive a New Customer Form to complete. On this short and simple form you will be able to select your emergency contacts.
Commonly, our alarm users select family members, close friends and/or neighbours to be their emergency contacts. It's strongly advised that you choose people who live reasonably close to you - so that they can get to your home quickly if needed.
In order to become a Personal Alarm user you will need to have at least one emergency contact on your account.
Your list can be changed or updated at any point, simply give our friendly team a call and they can make these changes for you.

The Response Team were extremely kind and understanding throughout the set-up of my alarm and I have to say that the installation was quite easy for me and my husband to complete. I chose to wear my pendant around my neck and I am proud to wear it, it’s not in any way uncomfortable and I can always tuck it inside my dress or blouse if I don’t want it on show.” - Joan Wood.
What Happens When I Press my Pendant?
When you press your pendant, due to a fall or feeling unwell, an alert call is made through to our Response Team. A member of the team will reply via the loudspeaker on your alarm's base unit.
They will speak with you and assess the situation before taking appropriate action. This is when they will begin calling your emergency contacts. They'll start at the top of your list and work their way down until they get a response.
Once connected, the Response Team will inform your emergency contacts that you have had a fall at home and require urgent assistance. Without an alarm, your family, friends and neighbours would have no idea that something bad had happened to you.
If the Response Team are unable to reach any of your emergency contacts, they will automatically call for the emergency services. Should you need medical help because of your fall, the Response Team will call for the emergency services alongside your emergency contacts.
Your medical information will also be passed on to the paramedics so that they are in the best possible position to help you once they arrive.

Keysafes
A Keysafe is a great way of ensuring that your emergency contacts and paramedics can get into your home once you have pressed your pendant. If your emergency contacts cannot be reached by our Response Team, how will the emergency services get in if your door is locked?
Customers with a Keysafe pass on their code to our Response Team, who can then share this with paramedics and any emergency contacts who don’t have their own key. The time saved here could make all the difference.
Having a Keysafe improves the overall security of your home.
