What are PERS and mPERS?

Posted July 23, 2018

Many wholesale personal alarm dealers are frequently asked, “What are PERS? What are mPERS or mobile PERS?”

These acronyms stand for Personal Emergency Response Systems and Mobile Personal Emergency Response Systems.

PERS and mPERS are medical alert devices with a button that customers can press anytime to receive assistance.

PERS work in and around the home, and require the user to communicate with the monitoring center through a base station. PERS usually require a landline or Voice Over IP (VoIP) line.

Mobile PERS, or mPERS, are self-contained pendants that enable users to speak with expert monitoring center operators via two-way voice through the unit, anywhere there is cellular coverage.
