Carelink Testimonials
"I couldn't be happier with my Carelink alarm. It was so simple to set up and test. I had everything ready to go within 24 hours of ordering! I can finally stop worrying about falls and accidents, because I know that I can always call for help if I need it."
Robert, Cambridge
"After my mum had a fall and broke her hip last year, she was scared she wouldn't be able to stay in her home. Luckily, we found Carelink and Mum has never looked back! Thanks to the Carelink alarm, Mum can carry on living in the home she loves."
Maria, Norwich
"Setting up my Carelink alarm was so easy, I couldn't believe it! The lady I spoke to explained everything very clearly and made sure all my questions were answered. I hope I never have to use my Carelink alarm, but I'm so glad it's there."
Anne, Peterborough

Carelink Alarm Unit
Carelink alarms support elderly, disabled, and vulnerable people throughout the East of England. The Carelink alarm base unit is super simple to set up. Just plug it into the mains power, connect it to your telephone line, and plug your telephone into the back of the alarm. You'll be ready to go before you know it.
If you find yourself having fallen and unable to get up, or if you ever feel unwell, simply press your pendant and speak to our friendly monitoring centre over the loudspeaker. Our team is available 24/7, 365 days a year.
After assessing the situation, the team will call your emergency contacts to assist you. If medical assistance is required, we will also call local emergency services in the East of England.
You'll select your emergency contacts when you order your alarm. These are the people we'll call on to come and help you.
Carelink Pendant
All our East of England customers will receive a sleek pendant button with their Carelink alarm. This button, known as the MyAmie pendant, is small, stylish, and discreet. It comes with two comfortable attachments, meaning you can decide whether to wear it around your neck or on your wrist. If you struggle using your hands and fingers, don't worry. You can also request an easy-press attachment to go with your Carelink button.
This powerful little pendant has a range of up to 100 metres. This means you can even wear it out in the garden - perfect for keen gardeners or sunbathers! It is also water-resistant, so there is no need to take it off while doing the washing up or taking a relaxing bath or shower.
With an impressive 7-year battery life, you'll never have to go without the reassurance of your Carelink alarm. When the battery runs low, we'll send you a replacement automatically.
How to use your Carelink Alarm
The features of the Carelink alarm are certainly impressive, but the important question is: what should you do with it in an emergency? We think that using your Carelink alarm couldn't be simpler. In fact, it's even faster and easier than making a cup of tea! In this section, we'll walk you through an emergency call step-by-step.
Let's imagine that you are at home doing a spot of cleaning or DIY. All of a sudden, you lose your balance and have a fall. This can be distressing, but all you need to do is press the button on your pendant. Our monitoring team will immediately receive your call for assistance. They will speak to you over the alarm unit's loudspeaker to see what's happened before calling your emergency contacts.
Your emergency contacts are a crucial part of the Carelink service. We recommend choosing relatives, friends, or neighbours near you in the East of England. Your chosen contacts will be informed that you require urgent help. If you need medical assistance, we will also contact the emergency services. The monitoring team will call your contacts to assist you even if you are unable to respond to the loudspeaker, for example, if you have fainted or had a fall outside in the garden.
As you can see, the Carelink Alarm service is a simple, reliable way to carry on living independently in your own home.
If you would like to know more about our alarms and what else we offer then please feel free to get in touch. Our friendly Customer Service advisors are available 24/7 and will be happy to answer your questions.

Now that summer is here, we are set to face increased temperatures. One of the main hazards to our health at this time of year is dehydration. This is true regardless of age, though the elderly may be at increased risk. Staying safe in summer isn’t just a matter of keeping cool; you should also make sure you are drinking enough. Here are the warning signs of dehydration, as well as methods to keep your fluids up. Dehydration Warning Signs Often, summer heat can be uncomfortable. We sweat more and may end up feeling tired. However, sometimes this discomfort crosses into danger. Sweating reduces the amount of fluid in our bodies, which is necessary for many biological processes. And the tiredness we feel may be a result of poor hydration. Common Signs When you are dehydrated, your body will start to crave water. Unfortunately, in later life our thirst reflex tends to become weaker. This means we may not be drinking as much as we need. Fortunately, increased thirst is not the only sign of dehydration. You may also notice: Serious Signs If you ignore the common signs of dehydration, they could progress into more severe symptoms. These symptoms could Read More
