Who is Telecare for?
The
County Telecare
Service is for
older people and other adults with long term health conditions, especially those who:
- have
a dementia or memory loss which means they wander or are unable to deal with risks in the home such
as fire, flood and gas;
- are becoming increasingly frail and are at risk of falling;
- are
struggling to cope at home and may be regularly admitted to hospital; and
- may need
residential care in future.
- Can support ‘carers’ in their caring role as they look
after a
member of family.
- For those people who need a reminder or prompting when to take
their medication
