Providing an innovative solution for people with Dementia, Alzheimer's, Autism and other Memory or Health Issues and their Carers. It sits discreetly on the wearer's wrist but alerts others to come to the aid of those who appear confused, lost, distressed, have a medical emergency or are involved in an accident.
How does it work?
Our Emergency Helpline number and a User code is printed on each of the uniquely designed and patented identity bracelets.
After buying and receiving the ID bracelet you then register it by clicking on the 'Register' Tab.
The User code allows you to create an account where you can enter important information such as Emergency Contact telephone numbers and names, medical information, information on how to keep the wearer calm and previous wandering info (if relevant). The Emergency Helpline is active immediately the bracelet is registered.
When the Helpline is called by either the emergency services or a member of the public we immediately reach out to the Emergency contacts and take the necessary steps.
Our Mission:
To allow the wearer independence for longer, to preserve dignity with a discreet but recognisable solution, to raise awareness and remove stigma, and to save vital time in any type of emergency including medical or a wandering episode.
Providing a vital caring and personal service - 24/7.
Virtually impossible to remove by wearer, giving 'piece' of mind.
Helping others understand – encouraging assistance.
Connected to our Helpline Service enabling a swift reunion.
Despite knowing what is necessary we are continuing to fail our older people, especially those in rural areas. We are making our older people feel like a burden - shame on us!
Produced by the BBC, a moving real life story of someone with Dementia who wandered off and how she was eventually located and reunited with her loving husband. A clear example of the motivation behind Wrist-Assured.
When it comes to Dementia one of the frequent issues we at Wrist-Assured hear about from both carers and family is of the struggle to get a person to take their medication.
