We have a range of additional items which can personalise that alarm to meet any specific needs you have.

The basic Bupa medical alarm consists of the button unit which can be worn as either a neck pendant or wrist strap, and a base unit, which sits beside your phone, plugged into your phone line.

			These tamper proof boxes, with a coded key pad, enable you to leave a spare key outside. That means help can reach you even if you can’t open the door. We recommend these are used in coordination with our alarms.
			If there is no movement at a particular time and we know there should be, we will send help, following the plan we have agreed.
			As soon as smoke is detected, an alarm signal is sent to Bupa and we alert the Fire Service. This is particularly useful in situations where cooking can occasionally become dangerous.
			For people who have difficulty in pressing our usual alarm button, we can offer a range of solutions. If we don’t already have a solution, we will work with our technicians to develop one.
			These alerts are programmed into your alarm and give a verbal medication reminder that is totally reliable.
			This detector automatically sends us a signal if you fall, so we get help on the way without you needing to do anything. It can be useful for a wide range of conditions that predispose people to falling.

We also have a range of sensors that can help carers looking after a loved one at home.  Some of these are particularly helpful for people living with dementia. These can be found on our Safer at Home with Dementia page.
