If you or someone at your home relies on life support equipment, it is important to let your energy provider know to ensure you are not disconnected, and allow for advanced notice of any planned interruptions to your energy supply.
Life support equipment can include any of the following:
- An oxygen concentrator
- An intermittent peritoneal dialysis machine
- A kidney dialysis machine
- A chronic positive airways pressure respirator
- Crigler najjar syndrome phototherapy equipment
- A ventilator for life support
- Any other equipment that a doctor says is needed for life support
To register for life support protection, contact your energy provider, who will send you a medical confirmation form to be completed by you and your doctor.
