Revision 06-1; Effective April 10, 2006
Emergency Response Services (ERS) are provided through an electronic monitoring system used by functionally impaired adults who live alone or who are functionally isolated in the community. In an emergency, the individual can press a call button to signal for help. The electronic monitoring system, which has a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week monitoring capability, helps to ensure that the appropriate person or service provider responds to an alarm call from an individual.
This handbook provides general information to potential and current ERS providers. You are responsible for complying with all rules pertaining to ERS.
