We have recently received our membership to PERSA – Personal Emergency Response Services Association. This membership certifies our Monitoring Centre with the Government of South Australia and approves our Monitoring service with the Personal Alert Systems Rebate Scheme.
What is the Rebate Scheme? the Rebate Scheme?
The Personal Alert Systems Rebate Scheme (the Rebate Scheme) is an initiative of the Government of South Australia.
The Rebate Scheme helps frail older South Australians, who are at risk of falls or medical emergencies, to obtain a personal alert system, allowing them to live independently in their own homes for longer.
The Rebate Scheme provides a rebate of:
• Up to $380 for approved applicants for the purchase and installation of approved monitored systems and autodiallers.
• Up to $250 per year for approved applicants for monitoring services for approved monitored systems.
Rebates are not available for rented, leased or hired systems.
The rebate is available for second hand systems that are purchased from a registered business with an ABN.
To find out whether your clients are eligible for the rebate scheme or to download information sheets including application forms please visit this website [link].
