Personal Emergency Monitors - It's no laughing matter!

While many people may have joked about the familiar line “I’ve fallen and need help,” a Personal Emergency Response System (PERS) is no laughing matter. Thousands of people depend on a PERS every day for increased confidence and peace of mind. Ideally, a person with a PERS will never have to rely on the system for assistance, but just in case, it is nice to know that help is only a button push away.

Many people who have made arrangements for a PERS have found the use of a personal system goes well beyond emergencies. If someone you know may welcome the peace of mind a PERS offers, we would appreciate the chance to tell them about Direct Link In-Home Emergency Monitoring and show them how our system works. We offer a free in-home consultation.

Likewise, if a person is fiercely independent and has avoided the suggestions or attempts of others to provide assistance, as we begin 2009, it may be worth another try. If or when an incident occurs, chances are the person involved will not be near a telephone to call for help. In fact, most accidents and health emergencies occur in the bathtub or late at night.

A personal emergency monitoring system can often be the deciding factor that enables a person to maintain his or her independence. In fact, a PERS may help minimize concerns and anxiety, and increase the feeling of safety and security. Studies indicate anxieties about falling often lead to people becoming less physically active. Having a PERS can help to bolster the confidence of a person as he or she moves about the home and yard.
