What our customers say
Steve describes how his alarm has helped him in an emergency and what made him choose a Taking Care personal alarm.
Trusted by our personal alarm users and their families
We've been using Taking Care now for probably four years to take care of my 93-year-old mother. I cannot fault them for the friendliness and effectiveness of their Customer Service.
Even if we have to ring the helpline or they ring us for a alarm they're always so incredibly patient thoughtful and genuinely caring which at the time is so great to hear when one feels a little anxious or stressed about one's mother.
I can only highly recommend them.
Chris
Ordering the pendant for my mother was easy and delivery was very quick. It’s given the family peace of mind if Mum has a fall.
Mandy
It was easy to order online and when I set it up for my Mum, the team on the other end of the phone were extremely helpful.
Christine
Good user friendly product which is reasonably priced. Excellent service from all who I have contacted.
