The global Personal Emergency Response System (PERS) market is set to expand from USD 6.2 billion in 2025 to USD 11.5 billion by 2035, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%, according to a new study by Future Market Insights (FMI). The growth is driven by the rapid expansion of home healthcare services, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, growing elderly populations, and rising adoption of AI-powered monitoring technologies.
As healthcare systems worldwide prioritize preventive care and independent aging solutions, PERS are becoming a critical component of connected healthcare ecosystems. Modern PERS platforms increasingly integrate GPS tracking, cellular communication, telehealth connectivity, voice-enabled emergency response, and artificial intelligence-based fall detection to improve patient safety and emergency response outcomes.
Mobile PERS is expected to account for 54.3% of total market revenue in 2025, making it the largest product category globally. The segment's dominance stems from GPS-enabled location tracking, cellular connectivity, improved portability, enhanced battery performance, waterproof wearable designs, and AI-driven fall detection capabilities. Unlike traditional systems confined to residential settings, mobile PERS devices provide continuous protection both indoors and outdoors, making them particularly attractive to active seniors.
The Home Healthcare segment is projected to hold 61.8% market share in 2025, reinforcing its position as the primary demand center for PERS solutions. Healthcare providers increasingly view home-based monitoring as a cost-effective alternative to institutional care. Integration between PERS platforms, telehealth services, electronic health records, and smart home technologies is improving patient outcomes while reducing hospital readmission rates.
According to Sabyasachi Ghosh, an analyst at Future Market Insights, "Personal Emergency Response Systems are evolving from simple emergency alert devices into intelligent healthcare monitoring ecosystems. Advances in AI-powered fall detection, cloud-based analytics, wearable sensors, and telehealth integration are significantly expanding the value proposition of these systems."
North America remains the largest consumer of PERS due to advanced healthcare infrastructure, widespread telehealth adoption, and strong awareness regarding elderly care technologies. Europe continues to witness steady demand driven by aging populations and expanding healthcare digitization initiatives. Meanwhile, Asia-Pacific is emerging as a major growth engine, supported by rapid urbanization, healthcare modernization programs, and rising investment in connected healthcare technologies.
India is expected to record the highest growth rate globally, registering a CAGR of 7.2% through 2035, driven by government healthcare modernization programs, expansion of emergency medical response infrastructure, and rising awareness of remote healthcare solutions. Singapore is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1%, supported by advanced healthcare infrastructure and increasing demand for independent living solutions. The UK market is expected to expand at 4.8% CAGR due to increasing integration of PERS platforms with telehealth services. The United States continues to dominate global revenue generation.
Key market participants include AT&T, GreatCall, Tunstall, AlertOne Services LLC, Aerotel Medical System Ltd., and Philips Electronics N.V. Recent industry developments highlight growing collaboration between emergency communication technology providers and public safety organizations to improve response outcomes.
