Direct Link® Monitoring Services & Medication Management Through Cared-4

As part of our efforts to help people live independent lives, we offer monitoring through Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS). PERS is a part of what we call our Cared-4 program and is a system that provides help with the push of a button, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. These call buttons are water-resistant. Plus, they are compatible with phone or cable lines and VolP systems.

Along with PERS, which is for use within the home, Direct Link also has Mobile Personal Emergency Response Systems (MPERS). These mobile systems are two-way pendants for communication, with long-lasting batteries to ensure safety measures are always in place. Whether you choose to utilize PERS or MPERS, there are options for basic protection or more advanced. We’re happy to discuss your situation and help you decide which system would offer the most peace of mind.

Vitals Monitoring is another offering through Direct Link, where health sensors monitor and track:

  • Blood Pressure
