19 – Emergency Call System

Fact sheet no. 19

If you are afraid that you won’t be able to get help after a fall or an accident in your home, installing an emergency call system can be a good solution.

Which home emergency call systems are available?

  • The emergency call system can be connected with an existing TAE box (telephone connection box).

If not available, the TAE box can be installed by an emergency call system provider for a one-time fee. Other providers arrange companies that perform this installation.

  • There are units available that work without a standard telephone line.
  • Emergency call system providers have developed solutions that can be used by a mobile phone as an emergency call system.

Further information about TAE independent systems and their costs can be inquired directly with a home emergency call system provider.
