Support for Independent Living
Living safely is for everybody. Not just seniors.
Whether you’re managing a chronic condition, recovering from surgery, or living independently with added health or safety concerns, Victoria Lifeline gives you 24/7 access to emergency help with one press of a button. No age requirement. No judgment. Just peace of mind.
You don’t have to be older to need a safety net.
Medical emergencies and life’s unexpected challenges can happen at any age. Millions of Canadians under 65 are managing chronic health conditions, mobility limitations, or living with disabilities and deserve the same confidence, independence, and access to emergency support as anyone else.
Victoria Lifeline is Manitoba’s most trusted personal emergency response system, providing 24/7 access to help at the press of a button. Whether you need extra support while recovering from surgery, managing a health condition, or simply living independently, we’re here when you need us, even for short-term recovery periods.
Who Can Lifeline Help?
Even though Lifeline is often mostly associated with older adults, Lifeline’s usefulness extends far beyond just one demographic.
Chronic Condition Management
A discreet emergency alert device for epilepsy, diabetes, heart conditions, MS, COPD, POTS, and more.
Surgery Recovery Support
Recovering alone after a knee or hip replacement? Help is always within reach every step of the way.
Health & Mobility Support
A reliable emergency response system for people living with disabilities, giving both you and your caregivers peace of mind.
Support When Living Alone With a Chronic Condition
Our medical alert devices are used every day by younger adults in Manitoba to help them manage complex conditions. Symptoms can change quickly, and emergencies can happen without warning, especially when you live alone. Our medical alert systems provide fast access to assistance for individuals living with conditions such as:
Diabetes
Lifeline provides fast access to emergency assistance in the event of low blood sugar, dizziness, falls, or other unexpected diabetic emergencies while living alone.
Heart Conditions
Lifeline helps individuals with heart conditions quickly connect to emergency support if they experience chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, or a cardiac-related emergency.
Epilepsy & Seizures
Lifeline offers peace of mind by providing immediate access to help during or after a seizure, especially for individuals who live alone.
Parkinson's Disease
Lifeline supports safer independent living by helping individuals with Parkinson’s quickly get assistance in the event of a fall, mobility issue, or medical emergency.
Post Surgery Support
Recovering from Surgery
Post-surgery recovery at home shouldn’t mean recovering alone. Outpatient surgeries and same-day procedures are more common than ever, which means more people are going home to recover without a nurse down the hall. Whether it’s a knee replacement, hip surgery, or any procedure that leaves you temporarily limited, our post-operative home support gives you a direct line to help if something goes wrong.
Fall Protection After Surgery
Automatic fall detection alerts our response team even if you’re unable to press your button.
24/7 Emergency Response
Emergencies don’t stick to business hours. Our response centre is staffed around the clock, every day of the year.
No Long-term Contracts
Only need support during your recovery? Use Lifeline for as little or as long as you need.

Our personal emergency response system is built around one idea. When something goes wrong, getting help should be as easy as pressing a button. During emergencies or times of stress, don’t worry about where your phone is. Get greater peace of mind knowing that getting help is always within reach.
