I have another one that I wasn't appreciative of. This one here runs on AT&T, and I don't get a signal here on AT&T. I can't get a signal at my home, so unless I'm out, it's pretty useless to me. I haven't had to use it, but if I do it at home, I don't get a signal from it. That is pretty bad.

Thank you for the review. You are correct that our devices run off of AT&T cell towers. If there is not sufficient coverage in your home you may have difficulty using the device. If you would like us to look into your situation more thoroughly, please reply directly to this message with your name, address and phone number. Any provided information will not be posted publicly. Thanks again for the feedback!

Does everything they promised. I especially like the waterproof bracelet I can wear everywhere. And it dries really quickly.

The product is well made however we were charged on our credit card 4 times for one unit. We couldn't get in touch with customer service after several attempts and finally sent an email to cancel and then we got a response. T

I wish we could speak into the wristbands/necklaces that have the call buttons; only the base unit communicates, so you have to place it strategically in the house and hope everyone will hear sufficiently when needed

Reply from Medical Guardian

Lynn, thank you for reaching out. In a situation where a button is pushed but one of our operators cannot hear you, they will assume that an emergency is occurring and act accordingly. Generally, this process would include a call to the user's primary phone number and then to EMS if no contact is made. This ensures that help is received in a timely manner, even if the user is not able to speak through the device. Feel free to reply directly to this message if you have any other questions or concerns about how this process works. Have a great day!

getting response after a head injury in my garage my call button would not respond and after some one else took my button in my house it took about 5 minutes before my call was answered. When I check in each month I feel that it take too long for the call to be answered. What good is this device in an emergency.

I got it just because I wanted to give it a try. I'm very healthy so I haven't had to use it except for when I pushed it by mistake. They're not very friendly though and having it makes me more nervous than anything. It doesn't give me a lot of comfort.

Jodeen, thank you for reaching out. We're happy to hear that you've been healthy and hope that this remains the case. We're unhappy however that you feel your customer service experience has been less than satisfactory. We will be reaching out to discuss your concerns to see if there is anything we can do to address them. Have a lovely day!

I was looking at a newspaper article, or something that was rating different services, and it was rated pretty high. My pendant is too long, and I can't figure out how to shorten it. That's my biggest issue.

Reply from Medical Guardian

Thanks for the review. Regarding your pendant, we can have a member of our Customer Care team reach out to help you adjust it. If you would like us to reach out, simply provide your name, phone number and address for us to locate your account. Alternatively, some customers customize their devices by removing the existing cord and adding their own. Feel free to do so if you wish. If you do reach back out, know that any information you share in your response will not be posted publicly. Have a lovely day!

I found it via internet search and chose them based on that. Haven't used it yet, just normal everyday usage. It's easy to setup and use, but once you activate it, their customer service is very unresponsive.

I got it since another friend of mine has it. I think they should have the information on your health at the company, not just at your house. If you call for an emergency, they should know what to tell the people that are going to go to help you.

Reply from Medical Guardian

Patricia, you are correct that we don't currently offer the option to store your health information in our database. However, we do currently provide EMT cards with all purchases that you can update with appropriate medical information to put on your fridge. In an emergency situation, we will inform emergency responders of the EMT card location, providing them with potentially valuable information in the process. Feel free to reply directly to this message if you have any additional questions about this process or any other questions. Thank you for the review and have a great weekend.
