Personal alarm for lone worker

    A female friend works as a therapist and can either do home visits or is based out of a local building which can be empty a lot of the time.

    She was hoping to get some sort of personal alarm or system that she can have in the event of anything happening.

    It needs to be portable and be able to alert mobiles or something like that, as well as audible.

    Any help much appreciated

    SOS Fob on Amazon & elsewhere.

    Search Personal Alarm for Elderly and Dementia With SOS Button, Fall Alarm and 2-way Voice Calling –

    .

    The Amazon one comes with a working UK Sim and an App package for ~€15 a month but I can install an Irish Sim and then u have to set it by Text commands.

    It's a well though out bit of Kit. Recommended.

    we use these in work

    https://peoplesafe.co.uk/products/microguard/

    Seem quite good, you talk to a live person if you press the SOS button so seems a good system... GPS locator also to retrieve location if person is non responsive.

    Its about the size of a chunky car alarm button/fob

    No idea on cost tho.
