How does the Lifeline Personal Emergency Response
System Work?
- Help at the Push of a Button: Within seconds of
pushing your waterproof personal help button, a trained Lifeline
Monitor at the 24-hour emergency response center will use your
personalized care plan to get you the help that you need.
- Emergency Response: In the event of an emergency,
Lifeline will contact emergency medical services to come to your
assistance. Lifeline also keeps a list of up to four non-emergency
responders (friends, family, or neighbors) who are close enough to
provide help without incurring the cost of an ambulance.
- Follow Up: The Lifeline Monitor will make sure
that assistance arrives and that no further help is needed before
closing
your case.
- Lifeline with Medication Reminders also available.
What do I need to use Lifeline?
- Active Telephone line: Lifeline will work in any
home with an active phone line. Disruption to phone line will affect
Lifeline’s ability to provide service. Please contact our office for
specific questions regarding your phone service.
- Electrical Outlet: You will need an available
outlet near the phone jack. If your outlet is full you should
purchase an electrical power strip prior to installation
