10 Reasons you should wear your personal alarm pendant at all times
SHARE
To ensure your own safety and utilise the IndeMe monitoring service it is essential you wear your alarm pendant at all times. The IndeMe personal alarm pendant is designed to be discreet and unseen until required. Multiple wearing options give you the choice to wear the pendant around your neck or around your wrist for your comfort. Here are ten situations you could find yourself in, when wearing your pendant is essential:
1. You have a fall and are unable to move
In the unfortunate situation of injuring yourself, it will be painful to move and if doing so you could cause yourself more harm. If you are wearing your pendant you will not have to move at all, you are able to press your alarm button for help.
2. You slip in the bath or shower
Baths and showers can sometimes be very slippery, which makes them prime places for people to slip and fall, especially when getting in and out. The MyAmie pendant is waterproof, meaning you can wear it in the shower or have it close to you in the bath. It cannot be submerged under water, so please do not have it in the bath with you, but place on the side, so you can reach if something should happen.
3. No telephone to call for help
If you have an accident in a room where there is no telephone and you are not wearing your alarm it may be difficult to get someone’s attention for help. Wearing your personal alarm at all times will prepare you for this situation, as accidents are often not predictable.
4. An accident outside
The Lifeline alarm pendant has a range of 50 meters from your Lifeline unit, so even if you are outside gardening or out at the front of your house and wearing your pendant, if you fall or require assistance you are still supported by the service.
5. Your family and friends do not live nearby
If you are in the position where you do not have family or friends close by, or they may even live in another country, this means they cannot easily come to your rescue should you need it. The service is there 24 hours a day to send help from the most suitable people, should it be a neighbour, doctor or the emergency services.
6. You live alone and do not know when your next visitor may come
If you live alone and do not have regular visitors you may find yourself in the unfortunate position of having an accident or falling unwell and not being found for a matter of hours or even days. Wearing your pendant at all times will ensure help is available 24 hours a day.
7. An unwelcome guest
