In any emergency, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, you can contact warden call from your home. Staff help quickly and easily by:

• alerting the Emergency Services, or
• contacting your doctor, or
• contacting a relative or friend, or
• sending a mobile warden to your home, and
• offering you advice and information.

If you can't speak staff assume that you need help. Information kept on computer helps us find the right help for you.

Warden call is also more than just an emergency service as mobile wardens visit you regularly and can offer you advice and support.
