The systems and methods may include receiving first status information by a device associated with a premises; determining a priority condition based at least on the first status information; transmitting the first status information including a first differentiated services code point indicative of the priority condition; and transmitting second status information including a second differentiated services code point indicative of the normal condition. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method comprising: receiving, from a first premises device of a plurality of premises devices located at a premises, information indicative of a first event detected at the premises; determining, based on the first premises device comprising a high priority device, a high priority associated with the first event; sending a first packet, wherein the first packet comprises the information indicative of the first event and an indication of the high priority associated with the first event; receiving, from a second premises device of the plurality of premises devices, information indicative of a second event detected at the premises; determining, based on the second premises device comprising a normal priority device, a normal priority associated with the second event; and sending a second packet, wherein the second packet comprises the information indicative of the second event and an indication of the normal priority associated with the second event. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the first premises device comprises a personal emergency response system (PERS) or a monitored connected health device. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the first event comprises an alarm event, and wherein the first premises device is configured to detect the alarm event. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the second event comprises a non-alarm event. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the indication of the high priority associated with the first event is configured to cause at least one network device to prioritize processing of the first packet over other packets comprising other information. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the indication of the high priority associated with the first event facilitates reducing latency associated with a network. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the indication of the high priority comprises at least one of: a marker; or a differentiated services code point. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the first premises device comprises at least one of: a camera, a video capture device, a sensor, a motion detector, a health device, a heart monitor, or a wearable device. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of premises devices is associated with a premises management system. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The method recited in claim 1, wherein the first event comprises at least one of: an alarm; a reminder; an intrusion detection; motion detection; a security breach; a scheduled time; or a combination thereof. ### Claim 11 An apparatus comprising: one or more processors; and memory storing computer executable instructions that, when executed, cause, by the apparatus: receiving, from a first premises device of a plurality of premises devices located at a premises, information indicative of a first event detected at the premises; determining, based on the first premises device comprising a high priority device, a high priority associated with the first event; sending a first packet, wherein the first packet comprises the information indicative of the first event and an indication of the high priority associated with the first event; receiving, from a second premises device of the plurality of premises devices, information indicative of a second event detected at the premises; determining, based on the second premises device comprising a normal priority device, a normal priority associated with the second event; and sending a second packet, wherein the second packet comprises the information indicative of the second event and an indication of the normal priority associated with the second event. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the first premises device comprises a personal emergency response system (PERS) or a monitored connected health device. ### Claim 13 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the first event comprises an alarm event, and wherein the first premises device is configured to detect the alarm event. ### Claim 14 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the second event comprises a non-alarm event. ### Claim 15 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the indication of the high priority associated with the first event is configured to cause at least one network device to prioritize processing of the first packet over other packets comprising other information. ### Claim 16 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the indication of the high priority associated with the first event facilitates reducing latency associated with a network. ### Claim 17 A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause: receiving, from a first premises device of a plurality of premises devices located at a premises, information indicative of a first event detected at the premises; determining, based on the first premises device comprising a high priority device, a high priority associated with the first event; sending a first packet, wherein the first packet comprises the information indicative of the first event and an indication of the high priority associated with the first event; receiving, from a second premises device of the plurality of premises devices, information indicative of a second event detected at the premises; determining, based on the second premises device comprising a normal priority device, a normal priority associated with the second event; and sending a second packet, wherein the second packet comprises the information indicative of the second event and an indication of the normal priority associated with the second event. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17, wherein the first premises device comprises a personal emergency response system (PERS) or a monitored connected health device. ### Claim 19 (depends on 17) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17, wherein the first event comprises an alarm event, and wherein the first premises device is configured to detect the alarm event. ### Claim 20 (depends on 17) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17, wherein the second event comprises a non-alarm event.
