Islington Assistive Technology
Assistive Technology (sometimes referred to as ‘Telecare’) is equipment that can empower you to remain independent in your home and in the community, and can delay or prevent the need for long term care. This equipment provides you, your carers, and your family and friends with the reassurance that help is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Assistive Technology will cover a wide range of equipment, such as smoke alarms, fall sensors, medication dispensers, and more.
Who is Assistive Technology for?
Our service is designed to offer reassurance and support to anyone but is particularly of value to those with a health or social care need.
Adults who are at risk of falling, getting lost outside the home, immobilisation, extreme temperatures, smoke in the home, harassment or feeling unsafe at home and many other circumstances could benefit from Assistive Technology.
If you are assessed as having an eligible Adult Social Care need, there is no charge for this service. If you do not have an eligible need, but still wish to use the services provided, there are paid options that you can discuss by contacting our Assistive Technology team.
