Validating European Mobil Alarm Services for Inclusion and Independent Living

The outcomes

MobilAlarm promises numerous additional benefits compared with existing home-based services. These include:

  • greater independence and increased freedom of movement,
  • fast emergency, health or care services in urgent cases, even in remote areas.

These benefits lead to

  • improved quality of life, and
  • greater self-confidence and feeling of security.

At the same time, this mobile alarm service will allow public and private care and emergency assistance providers to expand presently delivered services both in geographic terms and with respect to new target groups,

  • to improve the quality of these services to meet rising market demands,
  • to integrate other services provided via mobile platforms such as monitoring vital data, and thereby improve their competitive position,
  • to reduce the efforts of formal/informal care providers because many of those at risk can once again undertake small errands.
