Telecare range of sensors
There are many different types of telecare sensors and alarms. They have different functions and they may work together to provide support and protection. The starting point is a telephone line, usually a landline, and a power supply. Below are some examples of sensors that we can provide. For more information on the types of senses, visit the TSA website.
