Medical Alert Assistance Dogs are trained to help people with
life-threatening health conditions, giving them greater independence and above
all saving their lives on a daily basis.

Dogs are trained to assist individuals who manage complex health
conditions. They are taught to identify the odour changes that are associated
with life-threatening medical events.
The avoidance of dangerously low blood sugar levels (Hypoglycaemia) is an acute
daily problem for people with diabetes. When accompanied by loss of warnings it
has a dramatic effect on the lives of both the person with diabetes and their
family.

Low blood sugar levels are very dangerous if left untreated. Symptoms vary from
confusion to seizures to comas, and can become life-threatening.Causes of hypo
unawareness can include:
- brittle diabetes – unpredictable, rapidly fluctuating blood sugar levels
- some medications
- long term-diabetes
- tightly controlled blood glucose levels
For some people with diabetes deliberately raising their blood sugar levels was the only way to prevent severe hypos. We know that high blood sugars over a period of time are likely to cause disastrous consequences including amputations, sight loss, heart disease, strokes and renal failure.
With their amazing sense of smell our dogs are trained to detect minute changes in blood sugar levels. When these levels fall or rise outside the normal range they will warn their owner, get help and fetch any vital medical supplies.
Medical Alert Assistance Dogs also provide alert dogs for those with other very dangerous health conditions including Addisonian crisis which causes severe pain, convulsions and unconsciousness; pain seizures which lead to collapse and hospitalisation; severe allergic responses, and narcolepsy, a malfunction of the sleep/wake regulating system which causes sleep attacks and paralysis.
