Paphos Life

As the years roll by, we become increasingly frail. We have both had bad falls at home (although fortunately we were both at home when the incidents happened). My darling wife broke her hip last year, and I had a heavy fall in the garden last week which necessitated a hospital stay - but thank heavens no fractures. Vulnerable people in the UK used to wear a pendant or bracelet, which they could press to summon help.

Is there something similar in Cyprus? We are quite hard to find, as ambulances have found out. Ideally we could subscribe to a service where someone would attend, and then guide emergency services to the house.

If anyone has experience of this, your comments would be appreciated. Peace of mind, I know, will come at a price,

This could be of a help.

Emergency First Responders

Might be worth asking one of the security alarm companies they might have some kind of panic alarms that would help you.

I posted this on another thread. However, you might find it useful if you missed it.

I have put the name of our development of 10 plots on google maps. It has been useful when we have deliveries as we no longer have to go down to Olivios to meet them.
Our alarm was fitted by SAS and we have a panic button which can be used in the case of a burglary or medical emergency. They also train first responders and we are lucky to have one who lives close. We pay for monitoring but we think it is well worth it in case of a medical emergency or burglary. I've read of cases where the first responders have stayed until the ambulance arrived and have helped out with transport.

How do you post a plot on Google maps? That might help.
