PERSONAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE SYSTEM WITH PREDICTIVE EMERGENCY DISPATCH RISK ASSESSMENT
First Claim
1. A Personal Emergency Response System operating in conjunction with a Personal Emergency Response System (PERS) database storing profiles for PERS clients including at least demographic information and information on past calls to a PERS call center wherein the information on past calls includes information on past emergency dispatch events initiated by the PERS call center, the Personal Emergency Response System comprising:
- a PERS server system comprising a PERS server computer programmed to perform operations including;
(i) retrieving a profile of a PERS client from the PERS database,(ii) generating values of a set of features for the PERS client from the profile retrieved in operation (i) wherein the set of features includes at least one emergency dispatch event recency feature, and(iii) computing an emergency dispatch risk prediction for the PERS client over a future time horizon using an emergency dispatch risk model trained on PERS client profiles stored in the PERS database and receiving as input for the computing the values of the set of features generated for the PERS client in operation (ii).

Abstract
In a Personal Emergency Response System (PERS) service, activation of a wearable call device (10) by a PERS client causes a speakerphone console (12) to connect with a PERS call center (18) to enable the PERS client to converse with a call center operator while a PERS client profile is retrieved from a PERS database (52) and displayed on a display component (44) at the PERS call center. From the profile, values of a set of features are generated for the PERS client. An emergency dispatch risk prediction or other risk prediction is computed over a future time horizon for the PERS client based on the generated values of the set of features, and is displayed on the display component. The risk prediction may be wirelessly sent to a mobile device (80) for display on the mobile device.
