One very pleased customer has written to us to share her testimonial to the Medequip Connect Service.
Telecare has always had a certain amount of stigma connected to it in that some service users although they have a Careline in place are very reluctant to use it. The premise of the Careline / Technology Enabled Care Service offered is to keep people independent for longer.
