The idea of the \u2018red buttons\u2019 is for elderly people to be able to press them when in need of emergency assistance.
\nEvangelou added that she is in communication with the Third Age Observatory, which, she said, \u201chas studied good practices from Israel, Germany, the United Kingdom, Germany and other countries where not so good practices were observed.\u201d
\nWith this in mind, she said evaluations of the red button are near completion, with \u201cannouncements\u201d on the matter expected soon.<\/strong>
\nThe government had drawn criticism on the matter of red buttons from House labour committee chairman Andreas Kafkalias last week.
\nHe said the matter \u201chas been pending since 2019\u201d<\/strong> following a relevant cabinet decision, but that in the intervening five years, no update on the status of the plan has been given to the committee by either of two serving governments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
