Report Published: "Global Personal Emergency Response System Market 2016-2020"

The rapid growth of the global population raises concerns about the well-being of the older people as they may become vulnerable due to diminished communication capabilities, health challenges, financial circumstances, and chronic or terminal illness.
PERS for hospital and at-home care is a critical device, which is designed to signal the presence of a hazard and the requirement of urgent attention for the older population as well as people with disabilities during an emergency. Medical personnel are dispatched by response associates to assist the affected people accordingly for further care. These systems are available in various types, which include mobile PERS, landline PERS, and stand-alone PERS. They are available in the form of wireless pendants, wrist watches, sensors, motion detectors, smartphones, or transmitters that can be activated in an emergency. PERS can be available on purchase, lease, or rent based on a doctor's recommendation. Medicaid and insurance companies primarily do not pay for the device. However, national manufacturers, hospitals, local distributors, and NGOs often pay the rental, which includes monitoring services.
