Personal Safety Systems
Every second of every day, an older adult (age 65+) suffers a fall in the U.S. – making falls the leading cause of injury and injury death in this age group. One out of four older adults will fall each year in the United States, making falls a public health concern, particularly among the aging population. When Anelto started offering Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) solutions to help healthcare providers keep seniors in their homes and thrive; it’s no surprise that many clients asked about a Personal Emergency Response System (PERS). Helping keep patients safe and ensuring they have access to emergency medical care is an important part of our mission. For this reason, it makes perfect sense for us to offer PERS solutions for our healthcare providers. Outfitting your patients with PERS devices is a great way to maximize the efficacy of your RPM solution to keep seniors healthy, safe, and independent.
While most people think of fall alerts when they hear personal safety device, Anelto’s lightweight, technology forward PERS and mobilePERS (mPERS) systems are good options to improve personal safety and security in a variety of situations, including:
- Independent seniors, especially those with special care needs
- Patients or residents needing chronic care management
- Alzheimer’s and dementia patients
- Lone workers (hotel employees, realtors, restaurants, convenience stores)
- Students on college campuses
Our line of PERS & mPERS solutions, including help buttons, activity monitors, and home hubs, offer industry-leading technology. From our ultra-light mPERS devices with built-in fall detect to our home hub system with dynamic Anelto voice templates; we have a PERS solution that will fit your market. Today’s PERS systems can do so much more than get your patients help during falls. They make great tools to improve patient engagement by tracking activity,
increasing safety for those who may be alone for long periods, and tracking location when an individual needs to be found.
