Here at Care Alternatives we offer you the support you need to make the right decisions and choices for your life. We do this by giving you straightforward and timely access to relevant information, advice, services and equipment.

There is a growing awareness of the ways in which technology can help people to remain independent as they grow older.

The many devices available all aim to make life easier and safer. They range from the simple, such as a calendar clock, to more sophisticated items, like automatic lighting. In our experience, this kind of technology can transform daily life.

Care Alternatives can advise you about the products available and source them for you from reputable suppliers. We will work closely with the supplier to ensure that the product purchased meets with your needs and expectations. The supplier will then arrange for the fitting and any follow-up and maintenance visits.

In addition, we will be there to discuss any new developments with you, ensuring that you benefit fully from the latest assistive technology, such as:

• Room sensors regulating heating, lighting etc
• Danger warnings
• Incontinence early warning system
• Memory joggers (in the case of dementia)
• Electronic falls prevention
