Panic Alarm For Elderly People
An alarm for elderly provides peace of mind that help is always close at hand and allows them to continue living independently for longer. At the same time, it gives family and friends peace of mind knowing their loved one is safe.

Personal panic alarms come in various forms: from necklace pendants and wrist straps, to alarm panels with digital display screens and even extra features like automatic fall detection or GPS tracking.
Pendant alarms

Pendant alarms for elderly are an effective and simple way to keep someone safe at home. Worn around the neck or wrist, they feature an SOS button which allows someone in an emergency situation to call for assistance quickly. Some models even come equipped with screens providing feedback on battery charge status, who's calling and mobile signal strength etc.

Elderly pendant alarms offer many advantages to prevent falls from ever happening in the first place. Elderly people who worry about falling may stop moving as much and this could have an adverse impact on bone density, muscle strength and balance.

With the right alarms in place, older adults can be encouraged to move more and this can have significant health benefits for them by increasing cardio-vascular work that will assist their heart, lungs and blood circulation. Such alarms are commonly found in care homes as well as offered free by local council schemes for people over pension age.
Go-anywhere alarms

Millions of elderly live alone and personal alarms can provide invaluable help for staying active at home and keeping active at all times, knowing they have 24/7 access to an emergency resolution team in case of falls or medical emergencies. Even simpler alarm devices have large panic buttons with immediate connectivity to 24/7 monitoring services so assistance can be sought immediately in an emergency.

GPS Tracker watch As an extra safeguard, consider getting an elderly alarm that alerts family and friends upon pressing the SOS button. SureSafe personal alarms offer this feature as well as mobile options (SureSafeGO) with GPS tracking and fall detection included - this device works anywhere in the UK so it can even be used when out and about! When an SOS call comes in it will continue ringing until one of your nominated contacts answers, so someone knows where you are!
YourStride Alarm Watch

YourStride was designed with user experience in mind, offering all of the functionality of a traditional personal alarm with the sleek appearance of a smartwatch. It features an SOS button for emergencies as well as GPS tracking capability which automatically transmits its wearer's location if an incident arises.

Pressing the SOS button enables the wearer to reach a 24/7 monitoring team through their watch, with direct voice communication between themselves and our 24/7 monitoring team - perfect for those who find picking up the phone difficult. Family members can view their location via an online portal as well as setting geofences that alert if someone enters or leaves certain predefined areas at unexpected times.

YourStride's founders understood that traditional pendant alarms were dissuading many from using them, so they used workshops, group sessions and hundreds of interviews with elderly and vulnerable communities in order to develop YourStride as a device that would aid their wellbeing. User centric design is central to creating products which truly improve lives.
Emergency alerts

Personal alarms can be an ideal solution for seniors looking to remain independent at home and avoid long term care facilities. Modern panic buttons are easy to use; simply pressing one will activate an emergency response team who can contact medical personnel or your emergency contacts if necessary.

Go-anywhere alarms can be useful for people who frequently leave the comfort of their homes, particularly if they have a history of falling or health conditions that put them at risk. Most go-anywhere alarms feature GPS tracking so their location can be quickly identified when their button is pressed, and emergency services can be dispatched as soon as they press it.


Care homes provide comprehensive support and round-the-clock care, which may be suitable for individuals whose needs go beyond what a panic button can address. They can be an especially good option when family support is unavailable due to distance or work obligations.
