Care Link Central Alarm Service can give older and vulnerable people peace of mind 24 hours a day.   It offers security in that on activating the alarm you can speak to a member of specially trained staff 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.   

Staff are trained to:

• Give you advice.
• Alert the emergency services.
• Contact your friends and relatives.
• Give you a bit of reassurance?
• Round-the-clock someone’s on hand when you join Care Link.

To activate the alarm you simply push a button on the alarm unit. A member of staff will then answer your call. You can talk to them from anywhere in the room. They will be able to hear you and you will be able to hear them. If you can't get to the alarm, perhaps because you have fallen, a lightweight neck pendant is also available which you press, putting you in direct contact with the team.  

You can find out more about Care Link from Wakefield District Housing. You don't have to be a Wakefield District Housing tenant to apply. All you need is a modern phone point with a 13 amp plug socket nearby.
