Telecare Cardiff have been successful in achieving a bid from the ICF. The bid equates to £450k in total, to be paid over a three year period. This will allow Telecare Cardiff to offer free equipment to all potential new service users. The equipment will not be limited to the standalone Lifeline Alarm and pendant, it will be for all the devices within our inventory. This will include all of the peripheral sensors such as smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors and bed sensors to name a few.

Telecare Cardiff respond to multiple incidents of falls on a daily basis and are in a unique position to effect positive change on the citizens of Cardiff, using Technology Enabled Care (TEC) as an enabler.
