The objective of the Seniors Alert Scheme is to encourage community support for vulnerable older people in our communities through the provision of personal monitored alarms to enable older persons, of limited means, to continue to live securely in their homes with confidence, independence and peace of mind.

The Seniors Alert Scheme is administered on behalf of my Department by Pobal. Based on the information supplied, I recommend that contact be made with Pobal (01 5117222 or onlinesupport@pobal.ie) who can advise further on this particular case.
