For over three decades, Riddle Hospital’s Lifeline has helped thousands
of seniors improve their quality of life by staying safe in their home.
Riddle Lifeline’s partnership with Philips Homehealth allows us to offer
the best medical alert technology today in personal emergency response
systems and the resources to help our seniors reduce hospital stays.
It’s not just this service. We also educate our community on the facts
of fall safety and give you the tools you need to stay safe in your
home.
Preserve independence at home.
This year 13.5 million people, 65 and older will fall. If you or a loved
one experience a medical emergency, time is of the essence. This doesn't
have to be life-altering, but it can be: without immediate help, they
may suffer pain, emotional distress, or secondary medical problems like
dehydration, pneumonia, renal failure, and pressure ulcers.
That's where Riddle Lifeline can help, connecting you to the right help
for the situation, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year at the push of a
button. Whether you need emergency services or just the assistance of a
family member or friend to help you get back on your feet, we can help.

1 Summon Help
When you need assistance, simply press your personal help button. If you
have our new Lifeline with AutoAlert*, it will automatically call for
help if it detects a fall and you are unable to push your button.
2 Hear a Reassuring Voice
No matter the time or day, a trained Lifeline response associate will
answer your call, access your profile and assess the situation.
3 Get Assistance
The associate will contact a neighbor, family member, or emergency
services based on your specific needs, and follow up to confirm that
help has arrived.
Knowing that early intervention is possible in an emergency, Riddle
Lifeline provides peace of mind for the subscriber and family members.
Subscribers can maintain their independence with Lifeline and are
reassured that help is available if needed.
