Safe to Wear with a Pacemaker
Low-power technology designed to work safely with pacemakers
Our alarm is worn on the wrist like a watch.
- This keeps it away from the chest area where a pacemaker is placed.
- It does not use strong magnets and works like a normal mobile device.
- Many people with pacemakers use wrist alarms every day for extra safety.
If You Are Unsure
If you have a pacemaker or another implanted device, it is always best to check with your doctor or cardiologist.
They can confirm what is safe for you to wear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find the answers you need right here.
Is the Fall Watch safe to wear with a pacemaker?
Yes. It sits on the wrist and uses the same low-power radio as a mobile phone, well within pacemaker-compatibility guidelines.
Should I check with my cardiologist first?
If you have any concerns, check with your doctor or pacemaker clinic. They can quickly confirm whether this type of wrist-worn alarm is right for your device.
Can I sleep while wearing the alarm?
We recommend placing the watch on the bedside charger at night. Sleeping on your side could bring the watch close to the chest for long periods; charging overnight avoids any contact worries and keeps the battery topped up.
Does the device have magnets that could affect the implant?
Neither the watch nor the wrist button contains strong magnets. The charging dock uses a mild alignment magnet but is not worn on the body.
What happens if I feel dizzy and cannot press the button?
The watch’s fall detector senses a sudden drop and connects to our UK team automatically. If you do not respond, we follow your emergency plan and call the emergency services.
How loud is the two-way speaker?
About 80 dB, similar to a food blender, so you can speak calmly even if you feel short of breath
Do I need Wi-Fi or a landline?
No. The watch and Lifeline hub both contain SIM cards and work anywhere in the UK with mobile coverage.
When can I expect my order to be delivered?
Once your order is paid for and we have received your emergency contact information, your device will be delivered using Royal Mail Tracked24 providing 24hr delivery and is tracked all the way to you.
