Or, if you don’t know that you want to use the pager as the receiver for your Care Call kit, head back to the start of our Care Call Kit guide.

Step Four: Choosing Additional Sensors

Now you know you want to base your Care Call Pager kit around the PIR Movement Monitor, it’s time to choose which additional sensors you want to include in your kit. If you’re just after a standalone Care Call PIR Movement Monitor Pager Kit, this is the one for you:

The PIR Movement Monitor uses infrared to detect movement. Because of this, it’s great as a bed leaving alarm. Aimed down the side of a bed, the monitor will detect if someone leaves their bed and will alert the pager. What’s more, because it uses infrared to detect movement it can’t be set off by an inanimate object like a duvet trailing off a bed.

If you’re looking to monitor more than just movement with your kit, the Care Call PIR Movement Monitor Pager Kit is also available with a Carbon Monoxide Alarm:

FULL KIT Care Call Carbon Monoxide and PIR Movement Monitor Alarm System with Pager A complete set for detecting Carbon Monoxide (CO) and movement, the Care Call Carbon Monoxide and PIR Movement Monitor Alarm System with Pager quickly alerts carers to dangerous levels of CO. Part of the Care Call System    Available, dispatched in 1-2 days £556.54 (£463.78 ex vat) Full Details

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a dangerous gas. Odourless and colourless, it’s impossible to detect without proper equipment and can be lethal. The Care Call Carbon Monoxide Alarm will monitor the levels of CO in the air and will alert the pager when concentrations become too high. This enables you to be sure that you are providing a safe environment for those under your care, and that you can quickly act in case of an emergency.

Alternatively, the Care Call PIR Movement Monitor is also available with a Smoke Alarm:

FULL KIT Care Call Smoke Alarm and PIR Movement Monitor System with Pager A complete set for detecting smoke and movement, the Care Call Smoke Alarm and PIR Movement Monitor System with Pager quickly alerts carers to the presence of smoke, as well as movement. Part of the Care Call System    Available, dispatched in 1-2 days £555.54 (£462.95 ex vat) Full Details

The Care Call Smoke Alarm will alert the pager if it detects smoke, so you can be sure that you know if there’s a chance of fire in your home. There are two types of smoke alarm available - Ionisation and Optical.

Ionisation smoke alarms use radiation to detect smoke, which makes it incredibly sensitive. This makes it ideal for floors without kitchens on them – the usual amount of smoke which cooking can produce will set off false alarms, but on floors without kitchens any smoke is abnormal.

Optical smoke alarms, on the other hand, are great for floors with kitchens. This is because they use light to detect smoke, and as a result are less sensitive. Because of this, they will only be set off by enough smoke which is abnormal, even for a kitchen.

Or, if you’d like both of them, you can get the Care Call PIR Movement Monitor with a Smoke Alarm and a Carbon Monoxide Alarm:

FULL KIT Care Call Smoke, Carbon Monoxide and PIR Movement Alarm System with Pager A complete set for detecting smoke and Carbon Monoxide (CO), this Care Call kit also includes a PIR motion sensor which can alert carers to people moving about when they shouldn't.
