Elderly customers have been assisted by Potomac Edison employees who participate in the Gatekeeper Program. Employees have been trained to use their eyes and ears to identify older people who may be in potential trouble. PE has worked in partnership with local agencies on aging to assist these people. PE also provides special life-support system and third-party notification plans which work toward helping elderly customers with their special needs.
