Here’s how our At Home System Works

Step One
Press Medical Alert Button

By pressing your Personal Helpline button, voice prompts and audible beeps reassure you that a connection is being established to our Emergency Response Dispatchers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Step Two
Communicate with an Emergency Response Dispatcher

Our trained and certified Emergency Response Dispatchers 24/7 will attempt to speak to you through the At Home base station. In the event you are unable to speak to our Emergency Dispatchers, Emergency services will be dispatched to your location.

Step Three
Help is on the Way!

Our emergency dispatcher communicates with you to determine what kind of assistance is best for you and your situation. Emergency services can be dispatched to your location or if you prefer we can contact a family member or friend. Rest assured, if you are unable to respond, our dispatchers will dispatch ambulance to your location to safeguard your health and well-being.

Do you have questions? Here are a few answers!

Do you have questions?
Here are a few answers!

What should I do if I accidentally pressed my button?

Don’t worry – false alarms can and do happen!

The best thing to do in the event of a false alarm is to speak to the emergency dispatcher through the Helpline panel and notify them that it was an accident, and that you are doing just fine! Do not pick up your landline phone, as that can interrupt the call with our emergency response dispatchers who are trained to dispatch help if the call gets interrupted, to be on the safe side!

What if my home loses power?

The Helpline At Home Landline system has a built-in, rechargeable back-up battery that will keep it powered for up to 18-24 hours during a power outage. If your landline phone service continues to operate during a power outage, then your At Home Landline system should be able to communicate signals during a power outage.

Will my Helpline button work outside of my home?

Our At Home Landline system is designed for indoor use and although the button has a range of up to 200-300 FT in open air, this distance can be affected by many variables, such as home construction, obstacles…. If you are out and about and looking for security on the go, you may want to consider our “Home and On-the-Go System”.

What if the battery in my personal help button goes low?

When the button battery becomes low, we will reach out to you to arrange a free replacement of your button. Helpline’s button batteries last for years under normal circumstances, and rest assured, the button will continue to work while you are waiting for your replacement.

Can I shower with my button on?

Yes, buttons for the Helpline At Home systems are fully waterproof, and can handle your shower, bathtub, sink full of dishes, or other day-to-day water activities. This is an important feature, as one of the most common places to have a fall is getting in and out of the shower/bathtub, and Helpline is designed to give you security 24/7!

How do I communicate with the Emergency Dispatchers?

You can speak to our trained emergency dispatchers through the base station itself – not the button you wear. The button is what initiates the call to the monitoring station, so it’s important to always wear your button.

What if I am unable to speak when I press the personal help button?

In the event we receive a medical signal and there is no response or we are unable to understand you, we will dispatch EMS to your location and notify responding parties of the dispatch.

Will Helpline affect my telephone service?
The At Home Helpline Landline system has a port to plug in another phone. So, if there is only one phone jack in your home, the phone can be plugged into our Helpline system and work as expected. Should other telephone problems pop up, we have a service department available 24/7 to assist.
