Proven Impact: Monmouthshire Housing Association Case Study

Monmouthshire Housing Association (MHA) faced a critical decision: replace their ageing hardwired analogue systems with a like-for-like solution at high cost or exit the market entirely. Through a strategic partnership, Careium worked with MHA to co-design a resident-focused, digital-first system that prioritised independence, reassurance, and ease of use.

- 70% cost savings per connection compared to legacy systems.

- Reduced emergency call-outs and false alarms, improving operational efficiency.

- Enhanced resident independence, with features like remote door entry via smartphone.

- Future-ready infrastructure, allowing easy integration of emerging technologies (e.g., wearables, predictive care tools).

“Careium demonstrated great creativity in focusing on the outcomes we were trying to achieve for our scheme residents. We were pleased with Careium’s commitment to ensuring the contract met our needs and provided flexibility within the process” said Kath Deakin, Head of Sustainable Communities at MHA.

Designed for the Future of Telecare

The Eliza solution leverages open digital protocols for interoperability and ultra-fast alarm transmission, ensuring compatibility with third-party systems (e.g. fire panels, building management). Embedded Zigbee and Bluetooth support paves the way for next-gen applications like activity tracking and proactive and preventative health monitoring.
