At the heart of our service is a lightweight help button that quickly connects you to our owned and operated Response Centers 24/7/365. Then, a Trained Care Specialist will access your personal care plan, assess your situation and dispatch the help you need whether from a neighbor, nearby loved one, or emergency services. They will also follow up to make sure that help has arrived.
Our industry-leading HomeSafe provides quick access to Trained Cared Specialists with the press of a button or by using our optional fall detection technology.
Optional fall detection technology connects seniors to help quickly after a fall, even if they can’t press their button.*
When you press your help button, the communicator works like a speaker-phone and speed-dials the response center for direct communication with an associate who is ready to help.
Your help button will send alerts from anywhere inside your home, as long as you’re within range of the in-home communicator.
Wear your pendant in the bath or in the shower, where falls are most common.

On the Go is designed to detect falls accurately and connect seniors to help, quickly, even if you can’t press the button.*

This single-piece system provides fast access to help whenever and wherever you need it.*
GPS technology and Wi-Fi signals inside and around the home are used to create a home zone perimeter that is approximately 300 feet radius, based on signal strength.

To add an Away Service Contact, we require the Contact name, email, mobile phone, and preferred language when calling Lifeline Customer Support.
