No obvious forum for this one so I've posted it here.
Is there any standard state funded scheme for allocating monitored personal alarms for elderly people which they can use in crisis situations (e.g. sudden health problems etc.)? I've had a root around the web and OASIS but can't see anything obvious. I thought that such a scheme existed but maybe I'm confusing it with the scheme of grants aiding of house alarms for elderly people or personal alarm systems used by certain OAP sheltered housing?
