Ryecare Lifeline Service is for people who want to retain their
independence in their own home.
The Service provides users with the reassurance that if they
need assistance, at any time of day or night, they can quickly
summon the right kind of help.
To summon help a user need only press a red button on an alarm
pendant or alarm unit and a call will automatically be made to
Ryecare Support Centre which is based in Malton and is open 24
hours a day 365 days of the year.
Local trained operators then:
- know who the caller is and where they live;

are;

problems that they may have.
