Project Status
Personal Alert Victoria (PAV) is a service for frail, older people and people with disabilities who live alone or are alone for long periods, have fallen or are at risk of falling, or have conditions that put them at risk of medical emergencies. PAV responds to calls for assistance 24/7 and includes daily monitoring to enhance clients’ confidence and facilitate independent living. It relies on nominated contacts like family, friends, or neighbours.
This research is to ascertain client satisfaction and is valuable for continued service improvement.
