LIFELINE

The Village of Glenwillow has entered into an agreement with Lifeline Systems Company to provide personal response support service and an alert system for aged or ill residents by electronically notifying trained personnel to respond in the event of a home emergency.

The Village of Glenwillow will pay Lifeline to provide up to 15 Lifeline programs for our residents to be the most in need of such services as determined by the local administrator of Lifeline.

Residents who use this program wear a small alert as a necklace or bracelet.  If an emergency occurs, the resident presses the alarm and the company is automatically alerted.  They will check to see if the resident is OK or if they need emergency services.  They will also contact the nearest relative to inform them of the emergency.

For more information about this service, please contact Lifeline at 1-800-451-0525 or Village Hall at 440-232-8788.
