Specialty Homecare Lifeline and The Academy Provide GoSafe Medical Alerts to All Residents in Assisted Living
(Spokane, WA)– Specialty Homecare Lifeline was selected by The Academy Assisted Living to provide Philips GoSafe, the latest in mobile personal emergency response systems(mPERS), in order to have a mobile solution for residents or caregivers to call for help no matter where they are.
Specialty Homecare Lifeline is one of the nation’s leading TeleCare agency offering the products of Philips Healthcare. The Philips GoSafe pendant features the power of up to six location technologies, giving seniors the assurance to get up and go while being protected by the 24/7, U.S.- based emergency call response center which protects more seniors than any other medical alert service. Philips is the only mobile personal emergency response system (mPERS) to utilize this "hybrid" locating approach, which allows response center associates to locate seniors in need of assistance even in areas where GPS may not be available, such as indoors or in a parking garage.
“The expectation of our customers is to be able to call for help no matter where they are, “said Mark Strahl co-owner of Specialty Homecare Lifeline. “When my wife Tyice and I were certified on the Philips GoSafe system, we were impressed not only with the technology but the clarity of the voice of the Philips Respond Associate coming through the pendant. The fact that a simple waterproof help button will work at home, in the park, at church, or where ever our customer is in the community sets a new standard for personal safety.”
GoSafe's built-in AutoAlert fall detection technology can automatically call for help if it detects a fall, providing protection even if the senior is unable to call on their own. Whether the wearer experiences a fall, a health emergency, or even a minor assistance need such as being locked outside of their house, GoSafe enables help to arrive quickly when and where it is needed.
“This was an easy decision to make,” said Mark Scroggins the General Manager of The Academy, a Merrill Garden Community. “Instead of relying on pull cords, GoSafe pendants give our residents and staff a huge peace of mind knowing that when a fall or an emergency occurs, help will arrive in a timely manner. Faster response times allows for better outcomes for our residents.”
The GoSafe system utilizes an in-home communicator to optimize in-home performance, and the GoSafe pendant can be charged while worn, providing continuous protection for the wearer. GoSafe's advanced technology is delivered in an intuitive, user-friendly design that was recognized in 2014 with an iF Gold Product Award and Red Dot Product Design Award. Joining Lifeline with AutoAlert and the HomeSafe Wireless Communicator, GoSafe is the latest in Philips Lifeline’s suite of solutions designed to empower seniors to age safely and independently while providing their families with peace of mind. Celebrating more than 40years of delivering meaningful innovations for supporting senior safety, health and connectedness, the company is the nation’s first medical alert service and has served more than 7 million people since its inception.

(Spokane, WA) – Seniors in Eastern WA and Northern ID can now benefit from Philips Lifeline’s leading medical alert service even if they don’t have a phone line. The new HomeSafe Wireless System from Philips Lifeline offers the ability to provide the Lifeline Service with AutoAlert’s advanced fall-detection technology to deliver uncompromised in-home performance without the need for a phone line. The HomeSafe Wireless System offers a Communicator with a high-quality 2 way audio and battery back-up, providing a connection to the Lifeline Response Center without the need for a land line telephone service.* Specialty Homecare Lifeline is the areas authorized Philips TeleCare agency and offers the HomeSafe Wireless System with AutoAlert as part of their growing TeleCare solutions – www.shclifeline.com. Numerous area healthcare agencies and local pharmacies have teamed up through the Complete Care Network to offer patient centered health care using a multidisciplinary approach to improve outcomes. As the market continues to evolve, the demand from consumers who strive to live Independently for cost effective wireless solutions continues to grow.
Annual U.S. health care costs hover around $1.2 Trillion dollars with Falls contributing $43 Billion and Medication Errors costs at a eye bulging $300 Billion, to put in perspective Chronic Smoking is $90 Billion and Obesity is $127 Billion. Traditional health care solutions are very expensive and often do not have demonstrative positive outcomes. TeleCare allows for the blending of technology with direct patient care in a Independent living setting. Specialty Homecare Lifeline owner Mark Strahl explains, “What is exciting about building our Complete Care Network is that we are using the most cutting edge technology in areas of Medication Adherence (PMD) and Medical Alert (PERS) to allow for cloud enabled reporting and analytics. These reports provide our subscribers and those in their continuum of care to make objective health care decisions. Never in the history of those striving to live Independently has there been the opportunity to have access to a multi-tier, multidisciplinary approach at such a nominal cost. Subscribers are maximizing their wealth, and thus their ability to live Independently, by objectively targeting expenditures on qualified needs. The HomeSafe Wireless System with AutoAlert will be another force multiplier to allow more people to have access to this innovative health care model.”
“Our Complete Care Network focuses on the 3 Pillars of Independent Living; Medication Adherence, Personal Safety & Security, and Assisted Daily Living Tasks (ADL’S). We have proprietary medication compliant packaging that allows pharmacies to directly support our PMD subscribers. Caregivers can now confidently load the PMD with the pharmacy filled dispense cups which further reduce operational costs while improving patient outcomes. Our innovative mobilized web platform allows Complete Care Network agencies to be set up in an administrative role to have access to the reporting and analytics from the TeleCare products. This collaboration allows for a starting point for a complete care program around $400-500 per month and targets all 3 Pillars.”

Specialty Homecare Lifeline RECOGNIZED AS THE TOP PHILIPS TELECARE PROGRAM IN THE NATION. NEW HEALTH CARE MODEL IS GROUND BREAKING.
Philips TeleCare is a combination of the Personal Medication Dispenser (PMD) and Personal Emergency Response System (PERS) which offers Lifeline with AutoAlert service.
(Spokane, WA) – On top of celebrating their 5th year as Specialty Homecare Lifeline has been recognized as one of the top Philips TeleCare programs in the nation. Specialty Homecare Lifeline launched June 2008 offering Philips TeleCare service, which has more than 3,000 programs nation wide and provides service to more than 700,000 subscribers. Specialty Homecare Lifeline has been awarded the Lifeline Academy Award the last 2 years for being in the top 10% of all programs. Specialty Homecare Lifeline is recognized for developing and launching a ground breaking new health care model in July 2012, referred to as the TeleCare Suite Pro. The TeleCare Suite Pro is a blend of TeleCare products along with direct pharmacy support and health care agency assistance. The TeleCare Suite Pro is a mobilized platform that allows health care agencies and families to have instant awareness through effective communication in the areas of Medication Adherence and Personal Safety & Security based on demonstrative data. This allows for objective health care decisions to be made based on a subscriber’s needs and thus maximizes their wealth and ability to be Independent. This mutli-tiered, multidisciplinary approach slashes health care costs as much as 80% while improving outcomes. Specialty Homecare Lifeline was asked in 2013 to become a Philips Lifeline Advisory Board member, which is only open to 11 programs nationally, to have direct input in product development.
The focus is to provide innovative solutions for those who are trying to live Independently. The effects of the financial meltdown have had a devastating effect on our vulnerable adult community. Here in Spokane, the Spokane Regional Health District has numbers that reflect an over 80% increase in mortality rates for seniors due to falls in the past 5 years, while at the same time an almost 50% decline in Emergency Department visits. Our elders are afraid to reach out for help because of financial constraints and so when intervention occurs it is often too late and/or very costly. The challenge is that if the government(s) were to make the right decisions in financial policies, and that is a whole other debate, you still are looking at another 5 to 7 years for things to financially deleverage. That mean for our elders, their current financial wealth is not going to change any time soon and their Independence is based upon it.
The TeleCare Suite Pro focuses on the 3 Pillars of Independent Living; Medication Adherence, Personal Safety & Security, and Assisted Daily Living Tasks (ADL’S). We developed our proprietary medication compliant packaging 5 years ago in order to have pharmacies able to directly support PMD subscribers. This has allowed the caregivers of health care agencies to load the PMD with the dispense cups, which reduces operational costs while increasing the pool of potential subscribers. This innovative mobilized web platform allows these agencies to be set up in an administrative role to enhance their direct ADL support efforts for better outcomes. This collaboration allows for a starting point for a complete care program around $400 per month rather than the traditional price of $1,600-$2,000 per month. We provide elders a strong living environment based on the 3 Pillars of Independent Living to maximize their wealth by limiting costs to specific needs, rather than the traditional health care model that forces individuals to randomly spend money on direct care in hopes of achieving subjective results.
