Ensuring that the correct
emergency action is taken
You must always ensure that a plan of action is implemented in
the event of an emergency. This plan can either be written or typed
and given to those persons whose phone numbers are stored into
your Smart Dialler. Provision has been made in your pack with
the notification pad that you can forward to the receivers of your
emergency call. Here are some points to be mindful of.
1. If you have an existing medical ailment, then you may wish to
advise those on your list, that should they be the receiver of any
emergency call, to contact the ambulance to attend to your need. You
should note that the ambulance may (depending on the state you live
in) charge you for any call out situation and so it is a good idea to be a
financial member of the ambulance scheme.
2. The location of a home access key should be known to the
attendee/s of an emergency call. It is a good idea to have a key hidden
externally that is only known by you and those whose
phone numbers are stored on your Smart Dialler. The CareAlert
KeySafe Lock is an excellent alternative for securing your keys outside.
List of phone numbers stored in order
Use a pencil for recording these names and numbers, so that they
can easily be changed if necessary.
1 Name ………….....................………………… Ph No …………................….…………….
2 Name ………….....................………………… Ph No …………................….…………….
3 Name ………….....................………………… Ph No …………................….…………….
4 Name ………….....................………………… Ph No …………................….…………….
5 Name ………….....................………………… Ph No …………................….…………….
It is advisable to ensure that the above listed persons have access to a
key to your premises, in case of an emergency & that they have been
briefed in regard to the procedure you want them to follow after
receiving your pre-recorded CareAlert message.
