@redd , my Occupational Therapist left me a leaflet for this service. Using the service via the NHS was more expensive than if I went direct!

But, what price for peace of mind……….

@redd i don’t know if it would work for you but the Apple Watch 4 is a bit expensive but it does a lot of things including calling emergency services on a hard fall. Here in the us its $10 for cellular service as a add on and it lets you make calls etc. again it’s expensive but compared to $35 a month here in the us for a fall alarm it’s not bad overall. I use one when running but I haven’t had any falls (I don’t have ms so not sure if the type of fall would be different)

I have one provided by the council. It’s a pendant worn around the neck. I have to push a button if I fall and I’m on my own (I only wear it when I’m alone) there are 3 levels of help. They call first, if they don’t get an answer, they call the 2nd level (my ex who lives just round the corner) if he’s not in, or miles away they call the emergency services, there is a key box outside which they have the code to and they will give to the emergency services who can then get in the front door. They know about the dogs ( who are very friendly) they have their names so they can give them to the emergency services so there will be less stress all round, my dogs will lie down near me, or sit tail wagging in the hope that someone will help me get up. Cost NIL can’t be bad😍

@grandma my mother god rest her soul had the same service provided by the council in Bentilee Staffs was fantastic.

@grandma Stoke on Trent city council were absolutely fantastic could not say a bad word, they actually cared
