911 Call Centers Save Tens of Thousands and Save Lives In The Process - HOW?

Feb. 9, 2011 - PRLog -- 911 Call Centers Save Tens of Thousands and Save Lives In The Process - HOW?

911 Call Centers Providing No Monthly Fee Emergency Alert Systems To Local Citizens In Need.

- - -

911 Call Centers across the country have realized that by providing to the community a wireless emergency call button that calls emergency numbers such as the fire department or sheriffs department instead of 911 directly they can dramatically reduce their call volume.
This saves time and resources for the 911 call center and actually speeds up the response time.

In most cases the sheriffs department or fire departments would receive emergency calls from the 911 dispatcher. By calling the fire department or sheriffs department first this saves a call to 911 and saves time in response.

For most seniors to have a system like this would cost them $49 per month. Assistive Technology Services is providing these systems for a one time cost so there are no monthly monitoring costs or contracts.

Sheriffs Departments, Churches, Fire Departments, Senior Groups and many local Senior Centers have worked with Assistive Technology Services in Tennessee to provide No Monthly Cost Emergency Alert Systems for the seniors of their community.

As the senior population grows so does the need for them to have an emergency alert system. With 1/3 of all seniors falling at home each year the need is huge. Of the 1/3 that fall 1/3 of those will pass away within the first year of the injury.

Seniors are having a difficult time just getting by financially these days. Most seniors just can not afford the $39 to $59 a month for a monitored medical alert system.

Assistive Technology Services has the solution. Our medical alert systems have No Monthly Charges PERIOD. Once you buy the system (starts at only $69.99) you never pay a penny ever again to use it.

So how does this work? The system will call up to 4 telephone numbers that you program into it. It could be a neighbor, a friend, a cell phone or even 911. Some communities have the system call the local fire department instead of 911. Some communities have the system call a contracted home health care agent.

By calling these non-monitored numbers you are bypassing the big monitoring fees and saving hundreds of dollars each year for the senior.

Why do Local Fire Departments or Sheriff Departments provide these systems? Many communities have found that by having these systems call the Fire Department or the Sheriffs Departments they are reducing the burden on the local 911 call center. 911 Call centers are saving tens of thousands of dollars each year by having service calls redirected to non-emergency numbers at the Fire or Sheriff's Department.

How do churches get involved? Many churches have put together programs to raise funds through community fund drives and donations from members. By doing this they can purchase the emergency alert systems in bulk and save even more. At the same time they are providing a great outreach to the community and the members of their local church.

Assistive Technology Services is a Christian based company and welcomes any organization to contact us regarding fund raising and bulk purchases of any of our no monthly fee alert systems for their community.
