Lifeline®

Methodist Home Health & Hospice, Omaha, NE, offers Lifeline®, a 24-hour personal response system staffed 365 days a year by highly-trained, and caring response specialists. This emergency response system, Lifeline, is available to anyone living within a 60-mile radius from Methodist Hospital who wants to continue to live in his or her own home, but may be at risk for falling or a health complication.

 

A Lifeline medical alert system provides peace of mind for family members who care about their loved one's well being or anyone concerned about getting help when it is needed. For example:

  • Someone recovering from an illness/injury at home
  • Senior citizens or the elderly
  • High-risk pregnancy or a new mother home alone
  • Someone who suffers from chronic illness or disease
     

The Lifeline medical alarm system includes a communicator with a two-way speaker phone that connects to the client's phone and a portable help button worn by the client. Lifeline is capable of supporting the needs of the hearing and speech impaired and most physical impairments with on-site adapted systems and multilingual reponse staff.
 

A Lifeline emergency response system allows individuals to stay independent in their own homes and reduces visits to the emergency room.
 

To activate Lifeline, call (402) 354-3200 or (800) 239-3065. Hours for installation are Monday - Friday, 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. Lifeline subscribers pay a low, monthly fee for the service.

Comments from a client...

I simply wanted to express my gratitude for the service of your Lifeline coordinator last week. She was considerate, helpful and encouraging throughout her visit. The installation of this service, I know, will give my family and myself peace of mind. I love life and am still "having fun"...but must acknowledge, at soon to be 88yrs young...better to be SAFE than SORRY....thank you.
