OneCall provides assisted living solutions, enabling you to live independently within your own home.
What is OneCall?
OneCall can provide a variety of sensors placed around the home which are linked to a unit which is monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by our staffed customer support centre, allowing swift action to be taken should an incident occur. A wide range of sensors are now available that manage risks within the home, enabling people to live safely and independently for longer in their own home.
What services do we offer?
We offer a range of tailored technology including alarms, detectors and sensors to meet the needs of the individual to enable them to live independently, safely and securely including:
|
A pendant alarm |

The service is available for anyone of any age who would like to feel safer, more protected and independent in their own home, including:

Our services may also benefit children and young people who suffer with additional needs including Under 18’s with epilepsy to assist them in staying in their own rooms. Under 18’s with specific types of epilepsy can access the BUDDI system. This can detect certain seizures and also pinpoint their location through GPS allowing greater independence.
