Do not fill this in!A personal alarm watch for elderly is a small device worn on the wrist that can be used to get help in an emergency. It is a simple and affordable way of keeping your loved ones safe in their home.<br /><br />It works by alerting a 24/7 monitoring team to your need for help. They will find out what is happening and arrange help, either from a pre-agreed neighbour or an ambulance.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Personal alarms are becoming more and more popular as the elderly population continues to grow. They provide peace of mind and safety to a growing number of older people who can no longer reach their phones.<br /><br />The main features of a personal alarm are:<br /><br />Pressing the button on your watch or pendant will connect you to a 24 hour, 365 day UK monitoring centre which will call your family and friends. This will give them reassurance and organise help for you as quickly as possible.<br /><br />They can also send an emergency text message to your mobile phone and a live GPS tracker will be activated on the app so you can see where you are from anywhere in the world.<br /><br />These alarms can be waterproof so are particularly useful for the elderly who might suffer from falls while bathing.<br /><br />There are many different brands of personal alarm on the market and each offers a slightly different range of functions. Some are more expensive than others and will offer more advanced features such as fall detection or a GPS locator.<br /><br /> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Disgaea Wiki may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
