About Helpline Founder Maureen Cable
Helpline was born out of a desire to empower older people to be safe in the place they’re most comfortable, their own homes. For Helpline Founder Maureen Cable, Independent and Safe - 12 Essential Strategies for Independent Living at Home was the obvious next step.
As a nurse, Maureen became concerned about how quickly an unforeseen incident such as a fall or other medical emergency could have a lasting negative impact on an older person living alone. She also saw how that same incident, handled quickly, could become merely a minor interruption to an independent life.
When she met her second husband, Hamish, who owned a security company, they had a ‘lightbulb’ moment. They realised they could marry the principles of a simple alarm system with the need for summoning immediate help in the event of an emergency — and Helpline was born.
In the years since, Maureen has heard firsthand from customers how Helpline has transformed their lives. These stories, together with her 30 years spent delivering nursing and care services in hospitals and in the community, has given Maureen in-depth knowledge of how to live well, stay safe and remain independent as an older person. Spreading this knowledge is a passion that lies close to Maureen’s heart and the result is Independent and Safe - 12 Essential Strategies for Independent Living at Home.
