Econogard add Assistive Technology to their product Portfolio!

We are now proud to announce that we have recently teamed up with two companies in the Assistive Technology Industry, acting as UK Distributors.

Possum specialise in Electronic Assistive Technology (EAT), and provide a range of products including Environmental Remote Controls and Communication Devices.

The Environmental Remote Controls enable end users with Learning Disabilities and Physical Impairments to control everyday household items such as Curtain Tracks, TV’s, Radio, Light Switches, Electronic Fans; giving them control over their everyday lives.

The Communication Devices allow users who are unable to communicate verbally to speak through visual triggers and switches.  These products therefore allow the user to call for help, communicate their mood (happy, sad etc) or inform carers that they are hungry or thirsty, amongst other uses.

STT Condigi are leaders in the Care Phone (or Dispersed Alarms) industry and provides a comprehensive range of Telecare products which enable the elderly to continue to live a relatively independent life.

Their “Reflex II” and “Careline ANNA” Care Phones, via the operation of a small wireless pendant, once activated will connect the service user to a Monitoring Call Centre who can speak with them directly to assess the type of emergency or help required.  Both these products are cost effective alternatives to Tunstall’s “Lifeline” product range.

Another product from STT Condigi is the Cooker Guard which responds to excessive temperature and time.  The Cooker Guard automatically turns off the cooker if the hob becomes too hot or when the cooker has been left on too long without being attended to.
