The Progress Lifeline solution

Barbara and Frank have been given a mobile Lifeline device called the ‘Footprint’ This is a small fob worn around the neck, and can be used inside and outside the home to provide reassurance and safety whilst still allowing independence and freedom.

The Footprint features a one-press SOS button, as well as automatic falls detection and GPS tracking for instant location in case of emergency.

Pressing the SOS button just once contacts Progress Lifeline’s 24-hour Alarm Response Centre. Operators who can speak with you via the two-way speech system located inside the fob, will call your family or the emergency services if you need help The GPS tracker enables us to find you if you are lost

Customer feedback

Barbara says, “Before we had the Footprint, Frank fell while walking our dog, Max, down by the river He was confused and hurt and he was lucky that someone came to help him The fall knocked his confidence, and he was reluctant to take Max for walks for a while in case he fell again. The Footprint would have helped him immensely in this circumstance”.

“Now we’ve got the Footprint, Frank tucks the fob into his jumper so people can’t identify him as vulnerable He says that he feels more confident when he is out walking Bobby as he knows if he falls he can just press the button for help” www.progresslifeline.org.uk
