Demystifying Personal Mobile Alarms

Personal mobile alarms are a popular choice for many Australians, offering safety, independence, and peace of mind. Despite their growing popularity, there are still myths about how they work.

  1. They Will Send the Ambulance

While personal alarms can contact Triple Zero in an emergency, the choice of who monitors your device is yours. With LiveLife Alarms, you can select family members, friends, carers, Triple Zero, or our 24/7 professional monitoring centre. And if you accidentally trigger the alarm, there’s no need to worry – you will have the option to cancel the alert before it calls your nominated contacts.

  1. They Will Track My Activities

Personal alarms are equipped with GPS location, to help your contacts reach you quickly in an emergency. However, they don’t constantly track your movements. In non-emergency situations, your location can only be checked by those you’ve chosen to share your alarm information with.

  1. My Mobile Phone Does the Same Job

While a mobile phone can make calls, it’s not always within reach during an emergency. Personal mobile alarms are worn at all times, ensuring you can quickly access help. They also include GPS location and fall detection, features most phones don’t offer.

  1. Only Older People Need Personal Alarms

Personal mobile alarms are beneficial for anyone who may need emergency assistance, including people living with disabilities, those with medical conditions, or individuals who value independent living but want added peace of mind.

  1. They Are Difficult to Use

Personal mobile alarms are designed for simplicity. With just one button press, you can immediately contact your pre-set contacts or a professional monitoring centre. Many models also include automatic fall detection, ensuring wearers can get the help they need even if they are unable to press the button.

“I have had my LiveLife alarm for about 4 years. I feel very safe knowing that if I have a fall, or feel unwell at all, help is just a push button away. I wear it in the shower and keep mine on me at all times, other than when the unit is in its charger, beside my bed when sleeping. I am happy to recommend LiveLife to anyone, especially anyone living alone.”
