The Lifeline 4000+ automatically gives an audible and visual alert when it is time for you to take your medication. If you do not press a key on the Lifeline unit to acknowledge the reminder within a set time, the Lifeline unit will alert the monitoring centre, so that any necessary follow up action can be taken.Authorised carers can also ring your Lifeline 4000+ and access a voice menu to record a personalised medication reminder message. They can specify the time of day when it should be played, and whether it should be played once only or repeated daily.
