We are Hertfordshire County Council's sole provider of assistive technology across the county. We work closely with social care professionals, the NHS, GPs, Nurses, Pharmacists, support groups, charities, Carers, Hertswise, the Police, Herts Fire & Rescue and other professional referral partners across Hertfordshire to ensure that those in their care receive the reassurance, safety and independence that assistive technology can bring, as quickly as possible.
Hertfordshire County Council professionals should refer via ACSIS directly to Herts Careline.
COVID-19 will not stop us providing our service
If the service user is healthy:
- We will visit their home to install their equipment.
If they are self-isolating, shielding or suffering from COVID-19:
- We will provide pre-programmed equipment to their doorstep.
- We will telephone them (or a family member) to give step-by-step instructions on how to plug in the equipment and make a test call to our Control Room.
- We will make an appointment when they have recovered to install any complex equipment which needs our engineers’ expertise.
For every person our engineer visits, they will be wearing PPE, will use sanitising wipes on surfaces and adhere to social distancing regulations.
