Personal Alarms in Australia: Stories of Independence and Safety

“My mum who lives alone recently had a fall and the LiveLife alarm worked as it should. It detected the fall and notified her family and the ambulance service. A brilliant product, providing peace of mind and independence.” — Leanne M. Google Review, July 23rd 2025

With her Mums fall detection pendant, Leanne feels confident. The alarm’s automatic detection alerted her daughter and ambulance services instantly—help arriving without her even needing to press a button.

“Absolutely amazing. My father would not wear anything around his neck but would happily wear the watch which looks like a normal sporty watch – you have a choice of styles. It is loud if I try to contact him – he can hear me extremely clearly, it detects immediately if he has a fall. It came all set up for us, so easy for him to use – just press a button if he needs help and if he should fall it goes off as well. The charge lasts for ages. We are beyond happy with it – I highly recommend it and I am so glad when we researched all different types that we chose this one.” — Tara F. Product Review, July 9th 2025

Tara’s Dad wanted a device that didn’t make him feel “old” or restricted. The LiveLife Mobile Watch gave him exactly that. Disguised as a sporty everyday watch, it looks stylish while offering fall detection, long battery life, and one-touch SOS calling.

“Best alarm for independent elderly – Our mother is 99 and has been using this alarm for several years now. She has had the original device all this time. What a fantastic alarm this has been. We have several family members numbers on it and when she had a fall, all were notified in sequence, it told us exactly where mom was via sms and maps, and we were able to get to her quickly and to talk to her also. It almost doubles as a mobile phone as we can call her on it if we get no answer on her home phone. We can’t praise this device enough, it is fantastic and for only $50 a year or thereabouts, it has been such a relief and comfort knowing Mom’s always got an alarm handy if needed and we can communicate with her if anything happens. I would recommend this for anyone, especially if they like their independence like Mom and not have ‘strangers’ calling her to see if she’s OK. We specifically like it’s all family who can have that connection with Mom, as she’s a fiercely independent 99 year old!!” — Lisa W. Product Review, 26th May 2024

At 99, Lisa’s Mum is fiercely independent. With her GPS-enabled alarm, the family knows her exact location if an emergency occurs. During a fall, the alarm notified each emergency contact in sequence and shared her live location via SMS and Google Maps. Thanks to this, family members were at her side in minutes.

“My LiveLife Alarm gives me reassurance 24/7 that if I need help and I am experiencing a sudden flare of breathlessness, I only have one button to press to alert my support team and emergency services.” — David S. Google Review, 15th March 2025

For David falls weren’t his only concern—his health was. With recurring breathing difficulties, knowing he could press a single button for help at any time gave him peace of mind. His LiveLife alarm isn’t just a fall detector; it’s a lifeline for medical events too.
