Thanks for the information John, have passed it on. Cheers. Keren _____ From: A discussion list for Assistive Technology professionals. [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of John Hennock Sent: 22 January 2010 09:25 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [Spam] Re: West Sussex EAT service Keren At the current time the telecare service in West Sussex is provided by a number of different local authority / housing association organisations, based on the district council area where you live. By 1 April the service will transfer to a single service provider who will provide a standard level of service across the county. This service provider has been appointed following a tender process run by West Sussex County Council. The new service provider is Wealden Eastbourne Lifeline, an experienced telecare service provider - they already provide the full-county service in East Sussex. As this organisation will shortly be responsible for providing the service to this individual, I would suggest that it would be worth calling them on 01323 644422.

[mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Keren Down Sent: 21 January 2010 13:07 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: West Sussex EAT service Had a call from a W Sussex social work guy. Needs some advice on a lady with MS who sounds like she needs an assessment for a switch to access her telecare service. The W Sussex telecare provider company were not particularly helpful apparently having come to the end of their knowledge and the guy needs to find someone to do an assessment and install an appropriate switching service to work with her existing system. 1. Does anyone know W Sussex EAT service contact details? (couldn't get them on Google or find them on Assistech and I need to get lunch) 2. Are there any reputable independnt assessors/ instalers out there? Can't answer any detailed questions on the lady's situation but she sounds like she's had EC systems and electronic wheelchair services before so I'm not sure why she isn't in touch with the relevant people.
