David, diagnosed with epilepsy in 2013, now lives independently and works part-time due to support from Dorset Council’s Technology Enabled Care (TEC). He credits TEC with transforming his life, providing him with safety and confidence through devices like a falls alarm and the Brain in Hand app. The falls alarm alerts a response center with his GPS location if he has a seizure, ensuring he feels secure. Amanda Shelvey, an occupational therapist, emphasizes the importance of helping individuals maintain their independence while feeling safe and able to access support. David expresses deep gratitude for the assistance he has received.
