Client Testimonials
Independence is everything and MePACS gives me confidence. If something happens, I just press the magic button and know help is there.
With the alarm, I have help 24/7, no matter where I am.
I call them Sim’s Angels!
It’s just a life changer, knowing that someone is there. If I’m collapsing because my sugar level suddenly drops, I know I can just call MePACS.
MePACS are always polite and ask if there’s anything they can do for you. They actually care about you.
MePACS is a necessity for people with MS. It’s about being aware of my condition and how it impacts certain aspects of your life.
Having the MePACS response team there for me 24/7 really gives me a great sense of calm.
It doesn’t matter what age you are, MePACS is a lifesaver.
If you’ve got a medical condition, disability or you’re prone to falls, it is essential to have a personal alarm for your safety.

If you're unsure whether you are eligible for NDIS funding, our team can help explain your options.
Yes. The Solo Connect is a dedicated monitored personal alarm device and it is eligible for funding through the NDIS. Both the device and the monthly monitoring fees can be covered by the NDIS.
The Solo Connect Watch, Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch share some features, including fall detection, GPS and two-way voice communication. However, they are designed for different purposes.
Apple and Samsung watches are primarily smartwatches, designed for communication, apps and everyday convenience. While they offer some emergency features, these generally rely on notifying nominated contacts or calling Triple Zero.
The Solo Connect Watch is a dedicated personal alarm, designed specifically for fast access help during an emergency. At the press of a button, it connects you directly to the MePACS 24/7 emergency response team, where trained operators assess the situation and arrange the right assistance.
If emergency services are required, MePACS can provide responders with important information such as your medical conditions, allergies and medications, so they can prioritise and tailor their care. We also notify your nominated contacts and stay in contact with you until help arrives.
In short:
Apple Watch or Samsung Galaxy Watch: Smartwatch with emergency features.
Solo Connect Watch: Dedicated personal alarm with reliable 24/7 monitored emergency response.
