 PERS provides independent living without feeling alone, losing self-esteem, and maintaining quality of life.

 One out of three Americans age 65 and older falls at least once a year. The chances of surviving a fall are six times greater if you are found within one hour.

 The sooner medical help is received the better the outcome, minimizing risk of permanent damage, disability or even death.
