Peace of Mind On The Go With GPS Enabled PERS

Family members often worry about seniors, especially those living at home. The spectre of falls or security threats leads many to consider assisted living programs, but this doesn’t have to be the case. Seniors living at home are typically more active, healthier, and with the right tools, safer.

Medical alert buttons like our Personal Emergency Response System (PERS) enable seniors to remain active while promoting ageing in place. Consider these features which make a GPS-enabled PERS a good alternative to assisted living for active seniors.

Advanced Fall Detection

Using cutting-edge motion detection technology based on artificial intelligence (AI) our GPS-enabled PERS has a 90% fall detection accuracy rate. The advanced technology can accurately classify types of falls enabling it to significantly reduce false positives.

Rapid Response Times

Whether at home or out, if an active senior experiences a fall, they can rely on their PERS to connect them to first responders quickly. Even if you or a loved one is unable to call for help, the PERS unit will automatically connect with the monitoring station. Monitoring professionals can assess the situation and dispatch emergency personnel as needed. 

Promote Aging in Place

90% of seniors want to age in place in their own home and community. Medical alert buttons provide added confidence and assurance for seniors and family members. PERS advanced fall detection and response capabilities protect seniors and allow them to live at home longer and enjoy their independence.

Remaining in their own homes enables active independent living and for many is healthier, safer, and allows them to remain close to family and friends. It also saves money as assisted living programs can cost between $1900-$6500 a month depending on amenities.

Works Virtually Everywhere

Traditionally these devices were connected to a home’s phone line protecting seniors from falls or other emergencies while in their residence. The GPS technology in new PERS devices now brings the peace of mind you enjoy at home anywhere.

Seniors can trust the dependable 24/7 connectivity available with their device via a mobile monitoring service. They are able to easily connect to help through multiple capabilities including hands-free, two-way calling and a strong transmission strength, which works through thick walls or wooded areas.

Mobile PERS allows seniors the same benefits as their home system while outside. Active seniors who travel or exercise outdoors can take PERS with them. These devices have a 48 -hour battery life, are water-resistant, and utilize cellular networks so they work in most places. They can detect falls and connect their wearers to emergency services 24/7.
