Home emergency call is a small device with a button that is worn on the arm or as a necklace. It can be useful in old age or when a person lives alone and has an illness or other disability.
The device can be used to call for help in an emergency situation, even without a telephone. The home emergency call can also be set up so that it detects smoke, water or gas leaks and automatically sends an alarm. The basic package that every emergency call service offers costs between 25.50 euros and 30.00 euros.
