2. LEARNING DISABILITY Before any telecare equipment is considered, there must be a clear understanding of what might upset the user and hence be unsuitable:  Loud Noises  Flashing Lights  Automated Voice  Human Voice May cause person to behave inappropriately or even aggressively – think of what affect different types of equipment will have on the user

3. LEARNING DISABILITY Less intrusive equipment can be supplied:  Silent sensors  No flashing lights  Hidden equipment If you have equipment in mind, but require any of the above tailoring, contact us direct as engineers can usually find a solution.

4. HOME SAFETY The following telecare sensors can be installed should there be a risk to user within the home:  Flood Detector  Smoke Detector  Temperature Extreme (High or Low Temperature)  Natural Gas Detector  Harassment or Bogus Callers There has to be a specific response in place for bogus caller button and we need to be advised of this on request form.
