Marceline Garner Cameron, MO

I had only had Medical Alert 4 months, when I fell in my closed garage on 11/13/2019. My left hip was broken, and i could not get up. I pressed my Medical Alert bracelet. They contacted my daughter in Dallas, Texas, my niece locally, and within 20 minutes the responders were here. They were able to use the hidden key to gain entry, found me, and got me to ER. Without the Medical Alert, who knows how long it might have been before I was found!

Needed to have protection for help if I need it. I Just got my Visa Bill & I'm still getting charged a $5:00 charge that I had with my OLD equipment. I updated my equipment PAY MORE so this $5:00 needs to be taken off my bills.

My family and I highly recommend Medical Alert. My 88 year old Mother wants to live in her home. She has to use a walker to get around. My Siblings and I do not have the space or ability to care for her in our homes. I am 71 with serious health issues myself. My brother and his wife also have full time jobs. We chose Medical Alert based on the good reviews, and most reasonably priced alert system compared to the others we researched. So far Mother has had several falls and Medical Alert was quick to respond, and has been a life saver for Mother, and for our peace of mind. The customer service has been amazing! They respond quickly and are so kind and patient when we have questions or need assistance If you have a loved one who wants to be independent and stay at home, we highly recommend giving them a call. This was a perfect choice for our Mother, and for our peace of mind!

I was disappointed to be told that the wrist devices did not have the power o r service potential to allow me to respond to the voice as to if I have fallen ; have had difficulty hearing the voice; told that only the necklace device had the ability to work inside the home- which is not what the sales pitch indicated; not interested in having the necklace dangling around my neck;

I have had my Medical Alert for just abou ta year. Everyone there has been very caring and helpful. I've had to call several times when I've fallen in my yard. I have neuropathy in my legs and feet and cannot get up by myself. In July, I fell in my driveway and had an open fracture of the elbow and a broken hip. All of the emergency personnel were wonderful. Each time I've had to call, everyone has been very comforting and caring, and knowledgable with my injuries.

.Was told when I signed up by Pam D. that price would never increase. On 10/14/25 per Catherine ?? that for additional $10.00 /month device replacement insurance. On 11/25/25 per Antwon T. that for additional $5.00/per month price was guaranteed for the next 5 years. He said he would talk to supervisor to try and get a better price and that he would get back to me the following week. I called and e-mail him 3 times since then and still have not heard back from him. I DO NOT LIKE TO BE DECEIVED OR LIED TOO. Charles M.

Didn,t. My daughter got it. Disappointed that you can only communicate in room where device is. What's the probability of you being in one room if you fall. thought you could talk into neck device like on tv. I'm just as well off with my cell phone.Emergency does not have to knock down my door if I give them garage code on my cell phone. Commercials are deceptive.

Wanda was very helpful when I ordered this system for my mother. When it arrived, there was no medical alert bracelet and we have tried several times to have it sent (we were told it would arrive in the mail). Set up was also difficult as there was no person available to speak with (seemed to be and AI voice). Finally was able to reach a customer service rep to help.

Worked like a charm. My almost 96 year old mother was dizzy about 7 AM. She knew enough to push the button - and was able to hear the responder talk. She told them the problem. They were unable to get in touch with the 3 local contacts, so they called EMS. EMS knew how to get in without breaking the door. I was able to go to the emergency room (after I was aware of the issue) and be with my mother. I was extremely pleased that it "worked like a charm". It also gave me confidence in them.

Horrible customer service! Received multiple email, phone and home mail notifications that my account was over due when in fact it had been paid in December of 2025. After confirming with 4 separate customer service representatives that the account is paid in full, waiting several times on hold with billing (no less than 30 minutes each time before being allowed a callback request) and 3 emails to customer service, I am still getting calls and notifications. Billing does not return callback requests and I have yet to receive an email confirmation that the issue has been resolved. So frustrating and such a waste of time. We had used Medical Alert for one year prior and wanted to renew. Will not renew again and if this issue isn’t confirmed, I will be canceling.

I had my dad with this service for about 4 too many years. When he started becoming forgetful I order basically the pendant and bracelet and home monitor station. I initially paid for the GPS tracking so when he was out and about I could keep up with where he was. The GPS tracking almost never worked. It always showed him at home. I thought well maybe he's not wearing it - but I took it for several rides and it never tracked. biggest waste of money. What was worse is that when I called to cancel the tracking - the yearly price actually went up for just push button emergencies and fall detection over what I paid for GPS tracking. Before dad passed in December - he had 8 falls over a 2 month period of time and the fall detection only worked twice. It did not work on his last fall either that put him in the hospital prior to his death. These people are nice on the phone and act like they want to help you but good luck getting them on the phone, updating or changing service, and it took almost 2 months to get an account credit. Why didn't I stop it earlier? We did not realize until dad starting falling so much that the fall detection was not as we thought. If you are having any of these issues - please use them as warning signs. Always confirm the product is working as advertised.

Customer service is good Ppl that answer the alert is awsome and helpful. My medical Alert button is awsome. People loves it because one day I was at my center and I lean over to get something off the table not hearing my alert goes off so I was just talking to my friends 3 big mens came in the center lol we all was confuse why they are here we look at them they look at each and everyone to see if it was a problem. So they ask is anyone wearing a medical Alert button.?before I can anything everyone pointed at me they question me i was good and they left. We had a discussion about it they wanted to know how did they knew where I was. They was told it has a tracker.

Funny, as I was dismantling my old Medical Alert box, I dropped the plug, then dropped the unit as I tripped over the wires and fell. I hit my orbital bone and nose on the floor which resulted in the mother of all black eyes. I did get the new unit properly installed, and the fall detector is working fine. I tested everything, telling the person who called that it was a test and everything was fine. The fire department life support unit and an ambulance with EMTS showed up at my house a few hours later, just checking that I was OK. They said it was a service and there was no charge. It was my second fall of the week, the first fall resulted in a trip to the emergency facility. I had a broken rib. Luckily I have not fallen since.

Since I've had my Medical Alert bracelet, I have accidentally set it off and response was immediate and insistent. I was sound asleep at 4:30 a.m. and was awakened by what sounded like someone talking just outside my window. While I was drowsy, the "person talking" got progressively louder until I got up to investigate. The lady on the unit was polite and explained my unit had alerted, she agreed it was an accidental alert and she wished me a good night. I'm impressed and would readily recommend this product anywhere I thought someone might benefit from having it. It simply makes me feel safer in case of a fall or accident in my home.

First it was the price that got me and after that it was the personnel. I have had several flash alarms by mistake and they have always been very nice. I cannot remember this lady's name that she called to check on me after several months of not checking in. I didn't pay attention that I needed to do that. But it was a blessing to talk to her since she convinced me that I needed a different alarm necklace. I was trying to save money but not getting the fall detection device I'm not really what is the reason I got this. I'm very blessed and thankful for that person and I wish I could remember her name.

I've had excellent service from Medical Alert. I've never actually needed them, but occasionally I hit my button by mistake and they always respond. I feel guilty thinking I am bothering them, but they have never made me feel this way. - Even though I have rated them very high, I recently had a situation where I was mistakenly charged double for a new medical alert. I called them and they credited the $50.00 overcharge. However, I was charged $54.50 and and to date I have not been refunded the $4.50. I realize it's a small amount, but it's the principle of the issue. They overcharged me and they should refund me for the full amount.

I got this product for my mother who has fallen out of bed a couple times. Once she started using Medical Alert, they would dispatch me when she didn't respond right away to them in an emergency. There was one incident where my mother pressed the medical alert button when I was out of town. I didn't hear my cell phone go off, so they went and called the very next person on her 'list of people to contact'. They've been very patient and quick to respond! It's a very lightweight device, and there are many options for her to wear it. She can wear it as a necklace or as a wrist bracelet. They give us peace of mind, and it's nice to know that they can get there faster than I can in an emergency.

I think they were the first company that contacted me, so I took it. I've seen other companies advertised, but I decided to stick with Medical Alert. I guess the price is okay, I have to pay every month but it's fine. I have the device that you have to push to call them and I just got the new necklace that's supposed to detect when I fall. I'm satisfied with the first one, but I'm having problems with the necklace. I haven't even touched it, I just sit around with it under my shirt, but it has had a lot of false alarms. I've had 3 calls in the last 2 days. I don't want to hear from them that I need to be more careful or things like that. I think it was last year when I actually used it. I fell in the kitchen and pushed the button to get help. Two men came out right away and took me to the emergency room.

I have a back injury so I don't really walk more than a few steps at a time. I knew I needed something like this. I was looking around at various ads and found one at a local drugstore for Medical Alert. I called, got the information that I needed, and signed up. They've handled all of our interactions professionally. Lately I've had some problems with the button because it's very sensitive. The other night, when I was ready to go to bed, I put it in my nightstand drawer. I dropped it maybe 3 inches on something off and it just went off. I had to answer the phone to let them know that I was ok. The other night I had it in my hand, just resting there, and it went off. I made my way to the base unit as quick as I could to tell them it was not an emergency but what came out was this robot voice that would only take yes or no as an answer.

When my wife passed away last year I was looking into a service like this. I had all the information, so I thought that getting it would be a good thing for me. It has been a good deal so far. Shortly after I got it I fell outside and hit my head in the driveway. I wasn't hurt badly but I used it and they came for me and took me to the emergency room. I also accidentally bumped it when it was in my pocket. They called me and asked me if I was alright and I just told them I was. They are really good. At some point I lost the receiver or some other bit of the thing, so I called them and I got another one in the mail. When the snow melted I found it on the ground and it still worked so I just sent it back. One of the things I'd like them to change is the range of the medallion. You can only use it to talk to them if you're within a certain range of it. If I were to fall in a different room in my house, I would basically have to yell for them to hear me. Because of that I basically have my medallion and the receiver on me all the time.

I read an advertisement in a magazine about them and looked them up online. It seemed to have all the things that I needed, so I got it. Customer support gave us answers to the questions that we had in the beginning. On a typical day I wear my device overnight. I have a care giver come in the morning and I go through my routine. I shower and then put on the bracelet or the necklace on for the day. I put the bracelet on my right hand rather than my left hand. Sometimes I have it on all day long since it's not a problem for me. The button is very simple to use and the information and explanations that they give you are easy to follow. I can check on my computer whenever I get charged. I receive my invoice and it's always right. The only difficulty that we've had is that the machine needs to be plugged into the wall. I live in a condo and usually these buildings don't have that many wall outlets. I wish that device was somewhat smaller too. Even though I'm in a rather large condo I still have limited space. The device takes up a full table. Still, it has worked for me, I'm quite satisfied.
