Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the Safe-Life Falls Detection Watch work without Wi-Fi?
A: Yes. It uses 4G mobile connectivity and works anywhere in Australia with network coverage.
Q: Does it require a monthly subscription?
A: There’s no monthly fee. The included SIM is billed yearly ($66 renewal after the first 365 days). If you add professional monitoring, that’s a separate ongoing cost, billed either quarterly by direct debit or annually by invoice.
Q: Can I use my own SIM card?
A: Yes, the watch accepts any Nano SIM compatible with 4G bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8 or 28.
Q: Does the watch continuously track heart rate and oxygen?
A: Measurements are taken on demand to preserve battery life — ideal for quick daily checks.
Q: Is it NDIS-funded?
A: Yes. Safe-Life is an NDIS-registered provider (Provider #4050109546).
Plan managers and self-managed participants can claim the watch under assistive technology or falls prevention.
Q: How accurate is fall detection?
A: The algorithm uses accelerometer data to detect sudden impacts. False alarms can be cancelled within 10 seconds.
Q: Is there genuine 24/7 human monitoring?
A: If you choose our paid professional monitoring service (delivered through Securitas), yes, someone is monitoring 24/7. If you’re using the free contact-list option instead, the watch alerts your chosen family or friends directly by SMS and phone call, there’s no monitoring centre involved unless you’ve opted into the paid service.
Q: If the watch detects a fall and the person doesn’t respond, who receives the alert?
A: Whoever you’ve set up to receive it, either the contacts on your personal contact list, or the professional monitoring centre if you’ve subscribed to that service.
Q: Does it automatically call 000, or does it call family first?
A: It depends on your setup. With the contact-list option, family or friends are contacted first, and 000 is only contacted as a last resort if no one responds. With professional monitoring, the monitoring centre calls in to assess the situation directly, then acts appropriately, calling 000 first if it’s a genuine emergency and family after, or contacting family first if it isn’t.
Q: Is GPS location automatically transmitted?
A: Yes. If a current GPS fix can’t be obtained, for example indoors, the watch falls back to the last known location.
Q: How long does the battery last with fall detection and GPS enabled?
A: Typically 1 to 3 days, depending on usage. This is also why heart rate and oxygen readings are taken on demand rather than continuously, to help preserve battery for fall detection and GPS.
Q: Does the SIM or service require a monthly or annual payment?
A: The included SIM is billed yearly ($66 renewal after the first 365 days). If you add professional monitoring, that’s billed either quarterly by direct debit or annually by invoice, your choice.
Q: Does it work without a mobile phone nearby?
A: Yes. The watch has its own SIM card and connects independently over the 4G network, it doesn’t rely on a paired phone being nearby.
