Since 1990, BJC Home Care Services has partnered with Philips Lifeline to help patients increase their confidence and live independently. Lifeline, the leading medical alert service, offers reliable 24-hour access to help, reducing unnecessary suffering and making a real difference in recovery.
Lifeline is a wireless communication device worn as a pendant or wristband that allows the patient to summon help from within the home. With the push of the Lifeline button -- any time, day or night -- the patient is quickly connected to a trained Lifeline response associate, who accesses the patient's health profile and dispatches assistance.

"My legs went out from under me. I couldn't move and couldn't reach the phone. If it hadn't been for Lifeline, I wouldn't be here today. It saved my life."

New Lifeline with AutoAlert Calls for Help Even when the Subscriber Cannot
In addition to providing help at the push of a button, the Lifeline with AutoAlert option now offers subscribers an added layer of protection.
Lifeline with AutoAlert automatically places a phone call for help if a fall is detected and the subscriber cannot press the personal help button because he or she is disoriented, immobilized or unconscious after a fall.
Lifeline with AutoAlert uses an easy-to-wear, pendant-style Help Button embedded with a microprocessor. The microprocessor receives data from multiple sensors that detect changes in the subscriber's movement. It can determine when a fall has occurred, and automatically initiates a Help Call if the fallen individual has not gotten up within 30 seconds.
The AutoAlert is waterproof, allowing the subscriber to have continuous protection.
