Children, young people and families
Our Technology Enabled Care service can also support children, young people and families to live more safely, independently and confidently at home.
We offer a range of technology solutions, including personal alarms, sensors, detectors, GPS-enabled devices, video calling technology and other digital support tools that can help meet individual care and support needs. Please see our main TEC webpages to find out more about the range of solutions we provide.
Depending on your circumstances, TEC can be provided as a standalone service or as part of a wider package of support, helping families stay connected, improve wellbeing and access assistance when it is needed.
We accept self-referrals for a personal alarm. All other equipment requires a referral from Social Work, Occupational Therapy or the NHS.
