About the device
The device is a state of the art, fully mobile 4G personal medical alarm for the elderly, including an SOS button, built in fall detection and GPS location.
Just like a mobile phone, a Telstra pre-paid sim card is inserted into the device. It therefore will work anywhere there is a 4G mobile signal. It can be used at home, or on outings to the shops etc.
Mobile credit is purchased from Telstra. The cost of credit is $35 per 6 months on Telstra's 'Casual' pre-paid plan.
How does it work?
When the wearer needs help they simply hold down the large SOS button on the front of the personal alarm:
An SOS text message is sent to the nominated contacts. Up to three contacts of the user’s choice can be programmed, including 000. The text message includes a Google Maps link which shows the precise location of the wearer.
The device then calls the 1st nominated contact and then 2nd contact etc if the previous contact does not answer their phone. The device’s two-way hands-free speech allows the wearer to speak to the contact on speaker mode.
To set up the device, simply insert the sim card, enter the contact numbers you would like, and the device is ready to go.
