Lifeline Personal Medical Alarm Now Offers A Reassuring Voice To Seniors
Lifeline Personal Medical Alarm Now Offers Telephone Reassurance and Reminders Through its Lifeline CarePartner Telephone with Reminders, Enabling Seniors to Age with Dignity
(PRWEB) December 10, 2004 -- Lifeline Systems, the company that first
invented the personal medical alarm 30 years ago, and which today helps over
400,000 seniors or disabled people to age with dignity and live with greater
independence in their own homes, now offers telephone reassurance and reminders
as well.
The Lifeline CarePartner® Telephone With Reminders not only
provides immediate access to the Lifeline Personal Response Service when needed,
but it also offers several other features to enhance the everyday quality of
life for both users and their caregivers. The Telephone’s key added feature is
that it can be set up to record and play up 6 personalized daily, weekly or
one-time reminders. These telephone reassurance messages and reminders which are
recorded remotely from any touch-tone phone by a caregiver, can be used to
provide messages about taking medication, keeping appointments, eating well,
exercising... or simply expressing love and support.

ensuring help is still available at the press of a button.

Service is also available through select chapters of the American Red
Cross.

compares to Lifeline. The service costs little more than a dollar a day, there
are no hidden costs, no long-term contracts, and subscribers may discontinue the
