Swytch

Easier to press, harder to miss – a waterproof wireless trigger designed for reliable telecare activation.

The Possum Swytch transforms a standard telecare pendant into a large, easy-to-activate alarm trigger for people with limited mobility, dexterity or strength.

Compatible with pendants from most leading telecare providers, Swytch securely houses the user’s existing pendant while creating a larger activation surface.

Its waterproof design makes it ideal for bathrooms and shower areas, supporting safer and more independent bathing. With a range of mounting options available, Swytch can be positioned wherever help may be needed most, ensuring assistance is always within easy reach.
