Automatic fall detection, built for real life.

The Lifeline Fall Detector recognises when a serious fall has happened and quickly connects people to the support they need – even if they can’t call for help themselves.

How

How does the Lifeline Fall Detector work?

The device continuously monitors movement patterns, using clinically informed data to distinguish between everyday activity and serious, uncontrolled falls.

If a fall is detected, an alert is automatically raised.

Users can also press the button at any time to call for help — giving both automatic and manual protection in one device.

Who

Who is the Lifeline Fall Detector for?

The Lifeline Fall Detector is designed for people who may be at risk of falling and want the reassurance that help is always within reach, including:

Older people living independently at home
Individuals with conditions that increase the risk of falls or collapse
Residents in sheltered housing or supported living environments

It’s particularly valuable for those who may not always be able to call for help themselves — providing added confidence for both individuals and those who support them.

Why

Why it matters

Falls can happen without warning — and in many cases, the person may not be able to press a button or call for help.

The Lifeline Fall Detector is designed to bridge that gap.

By identifying serious incidents and providing an automatic alert, it helps ensure timely support, reducing risk and providing peace of mind for individuals, families and care providers.
