In a world where independence matters, renting a personal emergency alarm offers peace of mind without the commitment or upfront cost of buying. Whether you’re planning for short-term recovery, supporting a loved one, or exploring long-term safety solutions, alarm rental makes reliable emergency support accessible to more Australians.
At APERS, we’ve helped Australians live safely and confidently at home and on the go for over 30 years with 24/7 monitored emergency response. Our rental options put quality personal emergency alarms within easier budget reach — so help is never far away when you need it most.
Why consider renting a Personal Emergency Alarm?
1. Affordable Peace of Mind:
One of the biggest advantages of renting a personal emergency alarm is cost-effectiveness. Renting lets you access professional fall detection and SOS devices with no large upfront investment. This is particularly helpful for those who may need short-term support after a hospital stay or during a period of increased risk.
2. Flexible and Convenient:
Unlike purchasing outright, rental plans often come with flexible terms and no long-term lock-ins, beyond our standard minimum 6 month period. You can select the service length that suits your circumstances — from temporary coverage to ongoing monitored support — and return the device when it’s no longer needed.
3. Professional 24/7 Monitoring Included:
With APERS rental plans, your alarm isn’t just a device — it’s a direct lifeline to our highly trained and experienced Care Team operators. When the emergency button is pressed, your signal connects instantly to our Australian-based monitoring centre staffed by skilled Care Team members who can assess the situation and organise help. This is far more reliable than simple mobile phone txt message devices on the market. Read more about the safety risks of non-monitored devices here.
Each client at APERS has an individually tailored care plan. Our Customer Care Team Consultants will provide the appropriate support for yourself, your family and/or your loved ones. Plus provide relevant information to your formal care giver.
4. Easy Setup and Support:
APERS personal emergency alarms are delivered ready to use and are designed for easy self-installation. Most users, including most seniors well into their 80s, find them straightforward to set up. If you need help, our team is only a phone call away to guide you through setting up, testing and wearing your device.
Fall Detection
Sometimes a fall can leave you unable to reach for help. With optional fall detection, your pendant or APERS watch can automatically alert our Care Team, making sure that assistance is on the way when you need it most.
Who benefits from Renting a Personal Emergency Alarm?
