Telecare, telehealth and telemedicine

Find out more about what technology enabled care is, who it is for and how you can find out what is suitable for you.

How are telecare, telehealth and telemedicine different to receiving care in my home?

The aim of TEC is to help you to live at home and stay safe. Graphic of a house with a chimney, 3 windows of the roof, a front door and two windows either side of the front door.

Can I benefit from TEC?

You might benefit from TEC if you:

  • live with a long term condition or disability
  • have started to feel frail or at risk of falls
  • you are temporarily unable to do certain things in your home. 

How can TEC help me?

Whichever the case, TEC aims to help you overcome daily barriers. This is so that you can stay safe, independent and in control. 

TEC is not intended to replace the support you receive from carers or support workers. Instead, TEC aims to help both you and your carers be more informed and in control.
