"It's my clinical impression that when individuals at risk are given Lifeline, their mobility actually seems to improve." "If [users] feel better about themselves within their homes, if they're walking around more, if they're increasing lower extremity strength — that should increase mobility and decrease fall risk." — Dr. Rein Tideiksaar, PhD, ElderCare Senior Vice President for Program Development, Fall Prevention and Injury Reduction Systems
"Personal response services are a tremendous help to everyone on the caregiving team. My own grandfather fell when he was all alone. He hit his head on the coffee table and also shattered his hearing aid. It was a very frightening moment that led my family to consider getting a personal response system. Since my grandfather first started using the Lifeline service, we have never discussed not having it." — Ronda C. Talley, PhD, MPH, Professor and Executive Director of the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Human Development
