Philips Lifeline*just released its new HomeSafe Wireless medical alarm system designed for seniors living independently at home. Based on the original HomeSafe, the wireless version of the system does **t rely on having to have landline phone service in the house. The system will contact paramedics, relative, and anyone else setup as a caretaker anytime the user pushes a button on the accompanying bracelet or necklace, or if the system detects a fall.

The HomeSafe Wireless works via the cellular telephone network and may be a best bet for the increasing number of people choosing **t to have a traditional telephone in the house.

According to the latest data from the*U.S. Census Bureau, more than a quarter of U.S. households have eliminated landlines, while cell phone usage has increased dramatically. To address this shift, the new HomeSafe system leverages a wireless communicator that connects users to Philips’ 24-hour emergency response center, eliminating the need for a landline and providing seniors and their families with the peace of mind of k**wing they have access to help when needed.* The HomeSafe Wireless system encompasses the standard Lifeline service as well as the Lifeline service with AutoAlert, which is designed to automatically place a call for help if a fall is detected and the user is unable to push their button.

The HomeSafe wireless system is designed for easy installation by seniors and their families, with built-in guidance on where best to place the wireless communicator so it fits within the current design of the home. It is equipped with a battery back-up that can provide up to 24 hours of support in case of a power outage, ensuring that users always have access to the Lifeline medical alert service while at home.
