Panic Alarm FAQs
A panic alarm allows for anyone equipped with it to discreetly call for help by pressing a button. Linked to the alarm receiving centre, these personal panic alarms help those feeling in danger, injured or threatened get rapid help. Ideal for lone workers or those in high-risk environments, personal panic alarms help reassure and calm employees who feel their safety may be at risk.
You might see panic alarms also referred to as “panic buttons”, “lone worker alarms” “personal panic alarms” or “duress alarms”. Across our website, you’ll commonly see them referred to as lone worker alarm systems or personal panic alarms.
With a Peoplesafe lone worker alarm system or panic alarm, once you hit the SOS button, an alert is sent to an alarm receiving centre. The team receiving the notification actively monitor the situation, and based on information provided by the user, and the individual profile assigned to the alarm, will be able to assess the risk and determine how to assist the user. This could be initiating a blue light response or calling an escalation contact.
A panic alarm is certainly not a toy and should not be activated by way of a joke or to showcase what it does. You should only activate personal panic alarms when there is cause for concern. This could be any time you feel unsafe, if you feel unwell or if you have been injured.
A lone worker panic alarm system like that created by Peoplesafe is connected to a professional team at an alarm receiving centre. They can help resolve situations by following tried and tested methods that help keep people safe and reduce the risk of harm. Having an easily accessible panic alarm for lone workers has been proven to give users added confidence and assurance that should an incident occur, or a general feeling of uneasiness arise, they can get fast help and support.
There are a variety of lone worker panic alarm systems and personal panic alarms on the market but not all can claim to be connected to an accredited alarm receiving centre. Removing the need for friends or family to be the first port of call, a panic alarm from Peoplesafe puts safety and resolution first. Available via our app and on our devices, the specific needs of the user are met to ensure speedy and accurate incident reporting and handling.
When calling 999, you are requested to give information relating to your location, your identity, the service you require and possibly more. With a personal panic alarm, huge amounts of information are already in possession of the controller at the alarm receiving centre. This saves valuable time and helps source the right solution faster. All of our team at the ARC are specially trained to handle emergency situations, and relay vital information to emergency services should they be required.
A Panic alarm for lone workers like ours uses a SIM card to connect to a network and process the call to the alarm receiving centre. With Peoplesafe, we provide a roaming SIM in our specialist panic alarms for lone workers. This way, you’ll always be assured of the strongest possible connection to any of the three major network providers in the UK.
