Someone had recommended it to me. I take it with me when I'm going to be outside, working my yard or something, but that's about all. I've never had to use it. Once or twice when I have dropped it, I had someone come on and ask me if I needed help, so I think that was very encouraging. I've also had a reminder when the battery was getting low, when I had not placed it in a battery box.

The service was recommended by my primary physician. I'm pretty comfortable with the button and so far everything has been great. Fortunately we haven't had to use it yet but we've done tests once a month and so far they have been very responsive and quick to answer.

Some friends decided for me, and I went along with it. I wear it around my neck all the time. The only thing I don't understand is, if I'm not within range of that speaker how does it work? I like the company; it's been fine. I'm just not sure how it will work unless you're within range of the thing.

Good question! If for whatever reason you cannot speak through the speaker, our emergency trained operators will assume an emergency is occurring and proceed accordingly. They will call your primary number and if no response is received they will proceed to dispatch emergency services. This ensures you get the help you need when you need it. Feel free to reply directly to this message if you have any other questions or concerns. Have a great day!

I'd heard about Medical Guardian online, and saw the reviews. It's for my grandma, and it just provides assurance that if something was to happen, you know that there's someone else looking out for her. It's convenient and easy for her to use.

My neighbor had just gotten gotten one for her mother, and she had done a lot of research, so I just took her advice and went with Medical Guardian. I think it's too heavy, in the winter I put it around behind my collar, but I wear it every day. I think it would be nice to have another device... something you could put in your pocket or something like that.

We looked around at all of the companies and decided that they had the best to offer. I wear the one that goes around the neck most of the time, though it does drive me crazy because it's itchy. I used it after I had gotten home from the hospital. I had come into the house when I fell down and they were quick to call, paid attention to me, and did what had to be done. They came out to help me and it all worked out very well. It kind of woke me up to just how good the service was.

It's just lying around, because I'm allergic to the watch. I got all 3 pieces of it, and it's just lying around. I haven't had to use it for any reason, I very seldom use it. The fire department came to my house, once, and I didn't know that they were coming; I hadn't called them. It takes them too long to answer the phone when you do call them, and I had to replace the watch, once.

It has been used a couple times, and they got back with us. It's a good device. To me, it's worth everything to have in case of an emergency. I would have to trust them, and I would recommend it if I knew anyone else that needed it.

They looked like they were good quality and had all the options that I was looking for. I got it because of that. On a typical day my wife carries the device around with her or keeps it on the nightstand when she sleeps. So far things have been good, she hasn't had to use it and I'm happy about that.

I decided on Medical Guardian when I saw it was rated number one. It's actually my father's, but I can describe it. It works, but the only disadvantage to the one that we have is that it does not go off when he falls down and can't push a button. They do make one that does that. It's ten dollars more, so $59 a month, and there's much cheaper ones on the market. I will probably switch back to a different company which is about twenty dollars cheaper, with a device that will go off when he falls down. Medical Guardian is a good system but it's way more expensive. They do answer the phone when he needs it answered. I do trust the company because they work, they answer, they make calls to wherever our list says, and they provide a lock box for your house.

I compared various programs on the internet and I decided that this was the best one. I've used it for a few times as a test but I have not had occasion to use it in an emergency, and I hope I never will. On the few occasions where I have had to speak to somebody, I have had a prompt and courteous response.

I needed the GPS location. I charge it at night and then in the mornings I put it around my neck. I used it a few times, several times deliberately just to find out if it works, and also if I bumped it by mistake it worked then, too. I've used it about four or five times and it always works. The people that I talked to were intelligent and courteous.

I have a patient that has ASL and I needed to be able to get someone to take care of her if I couldn't do it myself in case of an emergency. So far there hasn't been a reason for us to use it but she has pushed the button twice already. Those weren't emergencies, she just couldn't get to me with the phone she had. It does take them a long time to get to me though. By the time they contacted me, I had already gotten the problem fixed. Usually I just call them back and tell them things are ok.

I'm happy with it, but supposedly, if you're right near it, the remote does not work, so there's a possibility that you could fall too close to the console for the remote to work but also be too far away to actually reach it.

I had called a couple of different companies and the customer service that I got over the phone was of a higher caliber with Medical Guardian than with the other companies I had called; I just wasn't impressed with them at all. We haven't had to use it, but once a month or so, I'll do the test and hit the button so that I can get a response. They're very quick to respond, and very professional. It's good equipment, too.

I researched it on the internet and it was the most highly recommended.

I really didn't decide on it, my son did. It's basically the same as others. When I get up in the morning, I put my necklace around my neck, and I put another part on my walker, and I have it with me. I haven't fallen, thank goodness, but I feel secure knowing that I've got it in case I fall.

This is for my dad. We liked this system because of the features they had with the GPS on the transmitter, so he can be anywhere and we can get a hold of him, and he can call for help. We would really like to see where you could have two different transmitters for one button, so you can leave one transmitter in a vehicle and leave another in the house, and activate both with the same wrist band button. My dad was having trouble remembering to take the transmitter with him in the car, so we wanted to leave one transmitter in the car and leave one transmitter in the house if it were possible.

Thank you for the review. We appreciate your feedback about transmitter buttons. Unfortunately, we do not offer such a feature at this point in time. We do however offer an all-in-one unit, the Active Guardian, that has the speaker and base in one unit that he can wear around his neck. This might be a bit easier for him instead of the 2 piece nature of his Mobile Guardian. If you are interested in hearing more about the Active Guardian, reply directly to this message and we will reach out. Have a great weekend!

My brother who lives in Texas knew a lady that told him that Medical Guardian was the best thing she ever used and, after we got it, we found out that it actually is. I have the kind that goes around my neck in case of emergencies and also the machine that sits on a table by my bed. Every time I've called they've been right there to take me to the hospital. I did have an accidental button push but they were very pleasant about it. They're kind of like a big family, they really care for you and stay on the phone until they make sure that you're alright. They either send help out immediately or call the people that we want them to call. The only thing is that they told me they'd give me $5 for every person that I referred to them, but they haven't followed through with that yet.

I saw their advertisement and since they seemed to have a fair price I went for it. I've really never had to use it but the button is easy to use. Every now and then I accidentally hit it and they call and everything. It does seem like it takes a lot of rings before an operator responds to the call though. I mean, it does everything they said they would do, it's just a little slow at doing it.
