How It Works
1. Summon help
With a simple push of your Lifeline help button—tucked discreetly inside your clothes or worn outside—you’re connected to our response centre. If you have the AutoAlert option, it automatically provides access to help if you fall and can’t push your button.
2. Hear a reassuring voice
A caring Lifeline response associate will quickly access your personal profile and assess the situation.
3. Get located with GoSafe
Lifeline pinpoints your location through the communicator or your mobile pendant. GoSafe uses up to six advanced technologies to determine where you are.
4. Know help is on the way
Our response associate contacts a neighbour, loved one, or emergency services—based on your preferences—and will follow up to make sure help has arrived.
Benefits
Protection 24/7:
You don’t always know when an accident might happen, but you can be prepared for one. A slip or fall can happen anywhere in your home, even in the middle of the night. With a press of a button, you are quickly connected to the Lifeline Response Centre and can speak to a live person. And remember, Lifeline is not just for falls! Not every call for help is an emergency. If you’re locked out of the house one night with no cell phone, we can even call a friend or family member to let you in.
Peace of mind:
If you live alone, Victoria Lifeline can be there for you when your family can’t. You will feel a greater sense of security and peace of mind knowing that help is just a button push away.
Affordability:
For a little more than a dollar a day, much less than an assisted living facility or personal care home, Victoria Lifeline helps you live on your own terms, in your own home, at an affordable price. The monthly monitoring fee can be paid by pre-authorized debit or by credit card….No contract, no added service or cancellation fees.
Independence:
In a national survey, older adults reported that their greatest fear was losing their independence. Over 90% of older adults said they wanted to remain at home as long as possible. Victoria Lifeline supports independent living and is simply another resource to help you age in place safely.

- All proceeds from our Lifeline program are dedicated to advancing health care in the hospital and through innovative community programs.
- Victoria Lifeline has been helping Manitobans lead safe and independent lives for over 30 years! Since 1988, we’ve helped over 40,000 people live with dignity and confidence in their own homes.
- Victoria Lifeline is so much more than a help button. We install the equipment in your home and provide free, ongoing service and local support for as long as you have Lifeline. Curbside pick up or free delivery of the equipment with a telephone supported install is also available.
- Our only focus is medical alarms and our highly trained Lifeline Personal Response Associates are trained to the sensitivities of working with seniors and can provide reassurance if needed.
- In 2021, 41% of the alarms we responded to did not require EMS. Our Personal Response Associates were able to call neighbours or loved ones to provide assistance. (Source: Lifeline data for Victoria Lifeline from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021).
- Our Subsidy Program provides the Lifeline service to clients at a reduced rate, so everyone has access to this potentially life-saving service regardless of income.
- Through our proud partnership with Lifeline, we have access to their state-of-the art product line and innovative equipment like the award winning fall detection button, the AutoAlert. AutoAlert detects over 95%* of falls which is a very high industry standard.

I woke up one morning in February and I just felt weird. My shoulder felt funny and the feeling was spreading down my arm. I called to cancel a dental appointment and told the receptionist why I wasn’t coming. I also told her I had Lifeline in case of emergencies. She said to me, “Well push your button!” So I did. The Response Centre answered right away and immediately sent an ambulance to my home. When I got to the hospital the doctor told me I had a life-threatening blood clot. He said had I not pressed my button when I did and got to the hospital so quickly, I would not be here today. Now I tell all my friends if you live alone, you have to get Lifeline. They even call me Mrs. Lifeline!
