I Need Help Finding A Phone

DirtPoorGuy

My mother has problems using telephones, I have seen home phones that have simple one touch buttons so that she can either look at a picture or someones name and press it to dial.

I have been able to find phones that do this but they are all corded, which due to her having problems walking I don't want as she previously would get caught up on wires.

I saw the mobile phone pictured below and thought a cordless home phone like that would be perfect but so far I haven't found anywhere that makes anything similar for home use, I would really appreciate any pointers as to where I can get something like this, I have already tried the manufacturer of this phone but they do not make a cordless one for the home.

Is http://onlineshop.rnib.org.uk/display_item.asp?n=11&c=27&sc=141&id=4033&it=1&l=3&d=0 the sort of thing you're after? RNIB do other similar phones too.

Thank you, but no, she has problems with her memory so she can't dial numbers and finds navigating phone menus impossible.

Is it time to say "hang the expense" and get her a mobile phone and use that exclusively?

The Southern Co-op do a few from their co-opxest.com website.

Have a look

Some are mobiles, some are landlines, they have one that includes photographed memory buttons - that might help.

This looks closest to the mark:

Hope this is helpful!
