Personal Alarm Services from Taking Care

Taking Care logo

Taking Care offer personal alarm services for the elderly and vulnerable with 24/7 telecare support from their response centre. The monitored alarm service give the elderly the support, confidence and peace of mind to live independently in their own homes. The personal alarms for the elderly are easy to use; the alarm base units connect to a telephone socket and the personal alarms can be worn as a pendant alarm or wristband. When the button is pressed on the pendant alarm or wristband, it connects to the base unit which quickly contacts the telecare response centre. Trained staff can offer advice and support and if necessary contact keyholders or the emergency services on the customers' behalf.

Taking Care offer an installation service for customers in Oxfordshire, although the personal alarms can be connected easily to a power socket and phone socket.

Taking Care have been providing personal alarm services for over 30 years and are Telecare Services Accredited accredited. 97% of customers report a high level of satisfaction with the personal alarm services and with 98% of alarm calls answered within 60 seconds, you can be confident of support whenever you need it.
