Technology Enabled Care

How Technology Enabled Care works

Technology enabled care (TEC) is technology and supporting services that help you to stay independent or get help in an emergency.

It uses devices such as personal alarms and sensors for your home that are linked to a 24/7 response centre.

Our Lancashire TEC service is delivered by Progress Lifeline, they monitor the devices and run the response centre.

The operators are trained to deal with emergency situations. When a personal alarm or sensor is activated, an operator will assess the situation and alert a nominated contact or emergency services.

But TEC is more than an alarm service. A range of devices can monitor your wellbeing and help you with day-to-day activities too.

The benefits of TEC

TEC can give you confidence to live at home safe in the knowledge help is at hand when you need it.

If you are a carer, TEC can provide reassurance the person you care for can get help when you are not available.
