The use of digital technology, including telehealth and telecare, to transform and enhance care for citizens is recognised in the Scottish Government’s technology enabled care (TEC) programme, Scotland’s Digital Health and Care Strategy, and South Lanarkshire Health and Social Care Partnership (SLHSCP) Strategic Commissioning Plan 2019-22.
Telecare and assistive technology peripherals are dispersed alarms and remote monitoring equipment used to enable our most vulnerable citizens to live as safely and independently as possible at home for longer. The telecare alarms and assistive technology peripherals are installed in service users’ homes and linked to SLC alarm receiving centre.
Telecommunication companies are moving to digital technology known as ‘voice over internet protocol’ (VOIP) which can support both broadband and telephone services, the public switched telephone network (PSTN) will be switched off. . In the meantime, it is imperative that SLHSCP continue to provide analogue telecare alarms to our most vulnerable citizens to ensure their safety and wellbeing within their home.
The purchase of the analogue alarms is to cover the Council until the digital switchover.
