Assisted living communities are licensed healthcare providers that offer residents housing, personal assistance, supportive services, and custom healthcare plans.
Residents live in apartments or residential units and don’t require around-the-clock nursing supervision. Staff members are accessible 24 hours a day.
An emergency response system enables a person to notify emergency service personnel when assistance is needed.
Many systems include a small device with a button worn on a lanyard around the neck. However, emergency response systems may also include buttons, pull cords and other devices installed on walls.
These systems are invaluable for those who are living alone, in case of falls or other emergencies.
