Personal alarms, commonly known as ‘emergency buttons for seniors’, can be a vital tool for maintaining independence and peace of mind. Over recent years, the Australian government has increased its focus on programs that provide funding to assist eligible Australians in healthy ageing and independent living.
LiveLife Alarms are an approved NDIS and HCP supplier. We can help you navigate these initiatives, ensuring that you or your loved ones can access the support needed to live confidently and securely. We’re just a phone call away on 1800936774.
