Lifeline
At Advanced Care Medical Equipment, we carry the best personal and medical alarms.
Lifeline helps elders stay independent in the homes they love. Caregivers and elders know that for close to 30 years, Lifeline has helped over 5 million persons in need to get help quickly. Lifeline's state-of-the-art technology allows them to deliver day-to-day living benefits to subscribers. Trained, caring professionals respond to your help signals, unlike other alarm companies.
Other personal response providers are typically burglary alarm companies or companies who sub-contract their monitoring to a third party. Lifeline monitors our own subscribers 24-hours-a-day through our state-of-art Response Centers, equipped with the latest in medical monitoring software and technology. The Lifeline monitors answer every alarm personally and are extensively trained to provide caring and professional service. Now, you don't need to worry about your loved one with Lifeline in the home.
While Lifeline subscribers typically suffer from multiple chronic conditions, they are most often prone to falls because of compromised health and reduced confidence living alone.
Falls frequently occur while bathing or showering. The ability to wear the personal Help Button and activate it properly in these settings is critical.
We offer a variety of models to choose from and each one is 100% waterproof.
Lifeline Personal Help Buttons are also:
  • The smallest available today
  • Adjustable for a comfortable fit
  • Attractive and lightweight
Find out more about our Personal Help Buttons by calling Advanced Care Medical Equipment today at one of their 5 locations.
Why do I need Lifeline?
Nearly one third of all people over the age of 65 fall each year. That figure increases to 50% by age 80. Life is unpredictable. An unexpected fall or medical emergency could threaten your future health if help is delayed.
With Lifeline, help is assured. In a study, Lifeline subscribers were 10 times less likely to require admission to a nursing home.
However, Lifeline is not just for medical emergencies. Our service also allows you to:
  • Answer the telephone without having to rush to grab a handset and risk falling.
  • Maintain your peace of mind knowing that help is just a press-of-a-button away.
  • Enjoy a stronger sense of well-being.
Do I need to learn a lot to use Lifeline?
Lifeline service is very simple to use. When you need help, just press the waterproof Personal Help Button you wear as a pendant or on a wristband. Within seconds, a caring, fully-trained Personal Response Associate responds and summons the appropriate help - a neighbor, relative or ambulance.
What happens if I push the Personal Help Button but cannot reach the phone?
All Lifeline Communicators and Telephones contain a highly sensitive speakerphone that enables the Personal Response Associate (PRA) to speak with you, even if you can't get to the phone. If you can't respond, our PRA quickly sends help following the agreed-upon instructions outlined in your file.
Do I have to be in the same room as the Home Unit for a help call to reach the Response Center?
No. You can be in another room or on a different floor in your home and your signal will still be received. During your installation, our Lifeline Home Service Representative will even test your button range to see if it works outside on your porch, in your garden, or on your grounds. Your Personal Help Button is 100% waterproof (not just "water-resistant"), so you can also wear it comfortably in the shower or bath where many accidents occur.
Can Lifeline help individuals with physical disabilities?
Lifeline Access™ is a unique service package for individuals who are unable to use our standard Lifeline Personal Help Buttons. This special service brings the benefits of Lifeline to subscribers who may be quadriplegic, severely arthritic, or living with physical challenges.
With Lifeline Access™, you can call for help by pressing a special switch. This service also enables you to answer incoming phone calls, as well as talk with callers using the built-in speakerphone. This enhanced communication has changed the quality of life for many individuals.
