It is believed that there are around 15,000 people over the age of 65 who live alone in Newcastle. Careline aims to help keep the lonely safe and secure with our alarm systems by ensuring that aid will be available if they have an accident at home.
If you live alone then there is a chance that you may not being able to get back up again should you suffer from a fall. You could also be unable to reach a telephone to call for an ambulance or a family member to come and help.
The issue of loneliness is a big one across the UK, including the North-East city of Newcastle. Today, we take you through our personal alarm system, to show you why you should have one in your home if you are living alone.
Careline Alarms to Protect the Lonely
The Careline alarm is simple but it has a huge effect on the lives of our customers. They are a quick and reliable way of raising a call for help if you have a fall or suffer from a medical emergency whilst you are alone in your home.
The alarm comes with the base unit and the pendant device. This can be worn around the user’s neck or wrist, and comes with both attachments inside the box. The alarm works using your existing telephone connection which means that it is quick and easy to install. There is an instruction guide inside the box to show you exactly what to do.
Once installed you are ready to go. All you have to do is to press the red button on your pendant or base unit when you are in trouble and help will be called for by our Care Team.
Your pendant is waterproof and has an impressive range of up to 100 metres. This means that you are covered in the bathroom and outside in the garden. You can call for help in every room of the house.

Key Safes
Alongside the care that our personal alarms provide, Careline can also offer lonely Newcastle residents even more security with our Key Safes. These are secure boxes which has a safety compartment for you to store your house keys – rather than leaving them under the mat for your friends and family.
Locked behind a security code, your keys will be hidden away from any potential thieves. This means that your house is safe and secure whilst you are out at the shops and also whilst you are inside – which is arguably even more important.
There are three Key Safes available at Careline- the Masterlock Select Access, the Yale Y500 and the police-approved Supra C500. With a personal alarm and a Key Safe installed at your home you really can start to feel safe, secure and confident about being there.
