Elderly neighbour had the red button alarm round his neck.
Didn't like that so left it on the table.
Fell in the garden and lay for ages until discovered.
MiL was 96+ when she died - equally useless alarm on the wrist which she did not wear - fell and carted off to hospital - carers in after that as my wife was working 40+ hours as well as looking after me on Chemo - she lasted another 2 years..
What about a webcams in the livingroom / kitchen / hall?
Blinks are cheap £34 for 2 and work well. I know you would not want to be intrusive but you can use the cameras to act as a phone as well should you need to speak.
BB on top of existing landline should be a minimal cost
