PERS
Given the choice, most people would prefer to be as independent as they can and live in their own homes as long as possible. This is also true for seniors, persons with medical conditions or physical challenges. The dream of independence can become a reality for many with this easy-to-use communication device called a Personal Emergency Response System, or PERS.
The table-top or wall-mount console provides pushbutton emergency assistance to anyone who desires additional security and peace of mind. The console comes with one battery powered, miniature, water-resistant, supervised transmitter designed for use in emergency applications. Pressing the button on the transmitter sends a signal to the console, which is then sent to our monitoring station. The transmitter can have pendant, wristband, belt clip, or pocket clip configurations.
How does it work?
Activating the system couldn’t be simpler or more reliable. You keep a wireless transmitter with you at all time. In the event of an at-home emergency, you press the alarm button to signal the console to automatically call the Emergency Monitoring Center. When one of these operators receive your call, he or she notifies the key people whom you reselected to respond in specific situations: family members, neighbors, friends, or appropriate rescue personnel. You can then feel confident that help is on the way!
