How Medical Alert Systems Can Save Lives

What is a Medical Alert System?


A Medical Alert Systems primarily focused on saving lives and quickening 911 response times in life threatening situations.
The system consists of a bracelet or necklace that is usually worn and which is connected to your homes Security System or Stand Alone EM System. By pushing the button on the pendant, an operator from a 24/7 call center receives a signal that triggers them to call the owner on their phone to evaluate the situation. If needed, Emergency responders are dispatched to the scene.

 

Why get a Medical Alert System?


Studies show according to the Center of Disease Control and Prevention that one of four adults aged 65 years and older falls each year. We see the need for these systems particularly in the elderly community, although they can be very useful for people with disabilities.
We understand that prevention is important in the elderly population as healing from fall accidents takes longer in most cases. ER visits can be prevented with the utilization of a life alert system.
With technology advancing ever so rapidly in our world, many of these Emergency Pendants come equipped with GPS tracking so if an accident were to occur when out and about, help can be on their way right to the scene.
