Hertfordshire Careline

Herts Careline’s award-winning assistive technology service gives users the freedom and confidence to retain their independence in their own home. Assistive technology, such as community alarms and telecare services, can provide much needed reassurance for users and their friends, families, and carers, as they know help is on hand at the press of a button, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Now in its 41st year of service, Herts Careline currently provides support for around 16,000 people across Hertfordshire and surrounding areas and takes around 1,500 calls a day - at least one third of these are life critical emergencies.
