What do people do when they want an alarm but they do not have a landline?
Not having a landline is fairly common in many households these days. A lot of people have given up their landline in favour of only having a mobile phone. Recent studies show that nearly one in four households does not have a landline. Of the houses that do have a landline, 25% of them do not have a handset.
Alarms for the elderly have traditionally operated using the phone line in a person’s home. An alarm base unit would plug into the phone socket in the hallway downstairs, and the alarm user would wear a pendant or a wristband button. This button was wireless. When pressed, it would trigger the base unit from within the home and garden. If they had a fall, or got into any difficulty, they would press the button and the base unit would dial out through the phone line to call for help. So what do people do when they want an alarm but they do not have a landline?

SureSafe has solutions that don’t need a landline. SureSafe’s solution uses mobile phone technology to be able to call for help when needed. You can choose the product that suits your needs and circumstances best.
SureSafe's market leading digital alarm is called the SureSafeGo and it can call up to 5 telephone numbers of family and friends when the wristband or pendant help button is pressed. The alarm also comes with a family & friends app and lots of additional features including daily 'I'm OK' welfare checks, activity monitoring including alerts if the alarm user is not out of bed by a certain time, alerts for no-activity, home temperature checks, medication reminders, unusual night-time activity, and a whole host of more features.
Where mobile phone technology is used in the no-landline alarm, the pendant or smartwatch is the entire alarm itself, there is no base unit. It has a mobile phone SIM card inside, a speaker and microphone, and all the necessary technology to be able to get help when needed. The alarm also has GPS technology built into it so that the alarm can tell the respondent exactly where you are, whether you are at home or out and about. This means it also gets you help wherever you are.
Landlines are expensive as well. Having a SureSafe alarm without a landline means you don’t have to organise the installation of a new phone to get the protection you need. An alarm without a landline also means you’re not spending money paying for a home telephone you won’t use and don’t need. It is often cheaper to have a no landline alarm than it is to have a normal BT phone line.
SureSafe’s no landline alarms are also very popular with people who live in caravans or mobile homes, in annexes to the main home, and in ‘granny flats’. These type of homes often do not have a landline or a telephone socket, so a SureSafe alarm is the perfect solution here.

Why You Should Have a Mobile No Landline Alarm for the Elderly
If you are away from home and you feel unwell, you get lost and confused, or you have a fall, help will always be at hand. You press the SOS button to trigger a call to a SureSafe operator or to one of your nominated contacts.
If you are unwell or injured, minutes matter. You might have suffered a heart attack or a stroke. In these cases, getting to a hospital quickly can mean the difference between making a full and speedy recovery, or not.
Wearing a SureSafe alarm means you get help fast, and a SureSafe ‘Go Anywhere’ alarm means you can use it no matter where you are.
Now, if you don’t have a no landline alarm, you will have to:
- Reach for your phone
- Hope it’s got enough battery
- Wait for whoever you have phoned to answer
- Hope that they can come and help you quickly
If you are unconscious, you won’t be able to do any of the above. If you have a fall, or you are having a heart attack or a stroke, can you use your mobile phone to make a call at all? This is doubtful, and is why a wearable SOS button is the key to additional safety and peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question? Take a look at some of the common questions that people have before buying a SureSafe alarm:
Yes. We offer a few options for fall alarms linked to your mobile phone. The most popular fall alarm linked to a mobile phone is the SureSafeGO Family Monitored Alarm. The SureSafeGO can be programmed with up to three telephone numbers of your choice. This is normally family and friends. When the SureSafeGO detects a fall it will send an alert to the three mobile numbers you have programmed in to tell them that the alarm user needs help.
The second option for a fall alarm linked to a mobile phone is the SureSafeGO Plus fall alarm watch. This alarm is similar to the SureSafeGO except that it is wrist worn, and it can be programmed with five numbers as opposed to three.
If you have decided that a personal alarm can help you are a loved one stay safe and independent, there are a few things to think about before choosing the best personal alarm to suit your needs. Do you want protection at home only, or when you are ‘out and about’? Is the alarm user prone to falls, so would a fall detector be a good idea? Do you want to be able to talk to the alarm respondent through the base unit?
If you want help choosing the right alarm for you or your loved ones needs, then call one of our friendly team on 0800 112 3201.
Absolutely. While our SureSafeGO pendant is very popular, we do have a fall alarm watch alternative that you can choose. The SureSafeGO Plus is a fall detector watch that looks like a smartwatch. It is a fall alarm watch that can call and text up to five family and friends numbers. It is also a lot more than just a fall detector watch. The SureSafeGO Plus has an SOS button, a heart rate monitor, a step counter and also tells the time. The most comprehensive fall detector watch on the market.
A fall detector alarm works by using special sensors in the pendant or wristband that can detect a person having a fall. Normal alarm pendants and wristbands work by the alarm user pushing the button to call for help. Fall detector alarms also have SOS buttons, so the user can manually call for help, however the inbuilt sensors that detect changes in air pressure, movement or impact can also call for help without the button needing to be pressed. This can be vital if the alarm user has fallen and lost consciousness as a result of the fall. The fall detector alarm does not require the person to be able to push the button in order to call for help.
No. Not all fall detectors for the elderly require a landline. We have options for fall detectors for the elderly that do need a landline, for example the FallSafe and Fall Alert alarms that come with our UK based 24/7 monitoring. We also have options for fall detectors for the elderly that do not require a landline, such as the SureSafeGO and SureSafeGO Plus. The SureSafeGO range use mobile phone technology. This means that they can be used at home, in the garden or ‘out and about’, like when you go to the shops. In addition to having fall detectors, the SureSafeGO range also has an SOS button and allow you to talk through the pendant or wristband.
Depending on the type of fall alarm that you have, you can either cancel it yourself by pressing a button on the pendant or covering your hand over the wristband face, or simply wait to speak to the operator and tell them that it is a false alarm.
SureSafe uses industry leading technology in its fall sensors. Its fall sensors work by being able to detect changes in air pressure (e.g. following a sudden drop), changes in speed of movement (e.g. following a sudden fall), and/or impact (e.g. when the pendant or wristband hits the floor following a fall). Some fall sensors use advanced fall algorithms that are even able to work out if a fall is real, or if someone has simply dropped their pendant.
SureSafe have four alarms that feature fall detection. The SureSafeGO and Fall Alert are pendant alarms. The FallSafe and SureSafeGO Plus are wristband alarms.
Fall alert systems can detect a change in air pressure and movement, as well as an impact, which signifies a fall. An alert is immediately sent to either your family or to a SureSafe operator if you have 24/7 monitoring. You don’t have to press the SOS button. The alert will go through automatically.
If you are unconscious or unable to speak because you are injured there’s no need to worry about getting help. Once the fall alert system has felt your fall and sent out an alert, your nominated contacts or a SureSafe operator will be able to help you.
If your family or the SureSafe operator are unable to speak to you then they can call the emergency services to make sure you get help immediately.
In the case of a fall, minutes matter. It only takes between 30 and 60 minutes for muscle cells to start breaking down. You might suffer from dehydration or hypothermia. The sad fact is that one in three people over the age of 65 and half of people over 80, will suffer from a fall each year.
Falls not only cause injury, but they can also mean a loss of confidence and a reluctance to get out of the house. The fall alert system also helps people who are living with medical conditions that might cause falls, such as epilepsy or Parkinson’s.
If you suffer a heart attack or stroke you might also fall and need help quickly.
Wearing a fall alert system will give you and your relatives peace of mind. You know by pressing the SOS button someone is on hand to get you the help you need.
