About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 12 November 2019. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

One Call provide sensors into people's homes that are linked to a unit which is monitored 24 hours a day. If a person requires assistance for example if they have had a fall, the sensors alert One Call who will respond and support the person. The service provided this support to about 5000 people. However, they only provided personal care to, on average about ten people a month. The Care Quality Commission looked at the personal care side of One Call.
