Description

Committed to keeping our customers safe at home.

Studies have shown that people are more likely to return to independent living after a fall if help comes quickly. Walgreens Ready Response™ System provides immediate access to emergency help around the clock.

With this system in your home, you have an instant link to our Response Center that gets you the care you need, when you need it. Whether you need a helping hand from a neighbor, medical assistance or protection from an unwelcome guest in the middle of the night, trust Walgreens Ready Response™ System for immediate assistance.

Walgreens Ready Response™ System includes a two-way voice console unit that connects to your existing phone line and a lightweight, personal activator button that stays with you — around your neck or wrist, or clipped to your belt. As an added safety feature, Walgreens Ready Response™ System comes with a second activator which you can attach to the bathroom wall, where many falls occur.

Just press the button and the Walgreens Ready Response™ System console opens a two-way voice conversation between you and our Response Team.

As a subscriber, you have a personal profile in our secure database. It includes your personal and critical medical information; a list of responders including family, friends and emergency personnel; and the response directives you want us to follow. Even if you are unable to speak, our operators know who you are, where you live and whom to contact.

How does Walgreens Ready Response™ System work?

1. When you need help, press your personal activator button.
2. The two-way voice console unit automatically dials the 24-hour Response Center.
3. Trained professionals who have immediate access to your personal profile will speak with you to identify the type of help you need (in English or your native language).

Even if you cannot speak or cannot be heard, Walgreens Ready Response™ System immediately sends help. Whether it’s a neighbor, ambulance or family member, we'll send the appropriate help immediately.

The Walgreens Ready Response™ System Monitoring Service

Because our subscribers rely on us 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, the Response Center uses the most advanced technology, software and redundancy systems so our service is always online and accessible.

Skilled monitoring personnel
Monitoring personnel are trained in accordance with best practice guidelines for emergency response dispatch to minimize the trauma subscribers may experience during an emergency and properly coordinate the delivery of care, as needed.

Dual monitoring centers
Two monitoring centers in separate geographic locations support the service and improve reliability in the unlikely event of a natural disaster.

Multilingual capability
The Response Center maintains a 24-hour bilingual staff to meet the diverse needs of our providers and their patients. In addition to English-and Spanish-speaking agents, language translation services make it possible to communicate with patients in any language.

Telephone line monitors
Telephone line monitors are used to detect and notify personnel when incoming phone lines are out of order to improve service availability.

Phone service redundancy
Multiple carriers provide phone service to the monitoring centers to improve service accessibility and connectivity.

Event and audio recording
We automatically record and digitally archive all phone interactions for quality assurance and review.
