Cascade Valley Hospital Lifeline Program

Like a friend, Lifeline is there when you need it.

Instead of compromising your independence, Lifeline makes your independence possible by standing by, as a friend would, to help if needed.

Lifeline is a personal emergency system that can be worn by an individual and activated by pressing a "Help" button. Your Lifeline communicator is then activated and automatically dials the 24-hour Lifeline Response Center.

A trained Lifeline monitor receives your signal and quickly makes contact with you through the communicator. You simply say what's wrong, and the Lifeline monitor will call the appropriate responder. If it's an emergency, the monitor will dispatch the closest aid car. All within minutes of your signal for help.

People subscribe to Lifeline for many different reasons--some for the independence it provides, some for the security, some for the peace of mind. Among these numerous Lifeline users are:

• Active seniors who live alone.
• People with chronic medical problems.
• New mothers who may need help but are unable to leave their infants unattended.
• Post-operative patients who want to maintain a link to medical assistance.

There is a one-time fee of $45 for installation and Lifeline units lease for $30 per month.

If you are not a Lifeline subscriber, perhaps you or someone you know ought to be. Lifeline allows an individual to maintain an independent lifestyle and still summon assistance with the push of a button should you need it.
