I had been falling a lot at the time and decided that I needed something that could help me when that happened. A lot of people don't realize that you can travel with it. You can just let them know where you're going and that's it. That's really nice because I can take it with me wherever I go out on Christmas. This year we went to Vegas and then to Florida, it was a nice trip. It doesn't cost that much. They have helped me a lot so far, everybody is very polite. Once I accidentally bumped the device on my neck against the counter and set the alarm off. Their people were here right away and even called me 3 times just to make sure I was alright. Now my sister and mom have one too. I feel safer with it knowing that there's someone right there ready to help.

At the time I looked at two different companies and since they had the best plan I went for it. I'm happy to have it in case I fall in the shower or something. I live alone so someone will be able to reach me and help me as long as I have it. I haven't had to use it but I always have it on me. I use the bracelet when I'm in bed and put the necklace on when I get up in the morning. There have been a couple of times when I either bumped it or dropped it and they responded right away. It's a bit too easy to bump the bracelet and set it off but I guess it's better for it to be too sensitive than to not be sensitive enough.

Barbara Rogers West Delray Beach, FL

I've had it for years. Every time I've used the Medical Alert button they've been here in no time. One time I fell right outside the door of my house, between the garden and the door, and couldn't get up. I pushed the button and even though the base unit was in my bedroom they were still able to hear me. I could barely hear them, but it was enough and things just went beautifully. They sent out the paramedics and they arrived very shortly and picked me up. They have always been there when I need them. It's a good system. Talking to my girlfriend who has a different system I realized that they're all pretty much the same when it comes to how fast they get to you. Right now I'm trying to decide if I should get the one that can go with you anywhere since my husband travels sometimes.

I got it because I wasn't allowed to leave the hospital until I got some kind of system like this one. Since it had the best reviews I decided to go with it. On an occasion I was trying to reach something and had no support or anything. I ended up falling on my back and had to use the button. I got a good response. I've had some false alarms and other times when I call them to check in, but I've only really had that one emergency. The device is easy to use, it just sits on my neck and I have no problems with it. It's good, it gives me security and I know that if I need help they'll send someone.

Argy Hager Bedford, VA

I had a medical alert system for years but it was tied to the house's phone line. I couldn't go beyond 100 feet away from my home. I looked around and they were the ones that met my needs and requirements so I went with them. I'm 85 years old, so I don't get out much, but I do go out occasionally and because of that I wear the fall detector around my neck. At first I was concerned about the GPS system since I wasn't sure it was going to be accurate. To test it I actually drove 15 miles out of town and pressed the button. They called me right away and told me the address that I was calling from. I was very pleased about that. Whenever I accidentally bang it against something they are always there right away to check on me. One time when I went out to check my mail, the neck piece got caught on the mailbox. I didn't realize it and it fell to the ground. When I saw it I picked it up and went back into my apartment only to realize that they were calling me. They wanted to make sure I was fine since the button had detected a fall. That made me feel very confident. Even though it was an accidental drop they were right there. The one time I actually needed them to send someone they paramedics were out there almost immediately. It's comparatively more expensive than other 2 services that I looked at.

D.D. or Anonymous Halifax, NS

They were the ones that I learned about first so I just kind of went with it. It's just there, if I need it I just use it. Over the years that I've had it I haven't had to call too many times. I had a very bad beginning with them though. It had been about a month since I had paid for the service and I was still waiting to get the device and everything. At night I fell off the bed and just kind of laid there on the floor from 4:30 in the morning until 2 o'clock in the afternoon. I couldn't move, get up, or get help. In the end my daughter came and helped me and took me to the hospital in an ambulance. I got a concussion and three stitches from that fall. The very next day I got a parcel on the mail with the emergency button in it. I'm not sure why it was slow at coming, but it would've been useful if it had arrived just one day earlier. I would've had help right away rather than laying on the floor for hours. I've had no problems whatsoever since then though. Their customer service is very good. They always explain everything to me, even if I call them by accident in the middle of the night. They are always there when you call them and talk to you for as long as you want to talk to them. I'm satisfied with that.

Shirley Smith Corona, CA

I live in this apartment building for older people. It's nice and about twice a week I go to the dining hall and talk with others and everything. They have activities like movie nights and such. I also occasionally have doctor appointments and shop around a little. Because of that my daughter thought it would be good to have, just in case I need it. I've never had to call and sometimes I get confused with the buttons and everything. Still, I feel like it's always there and it gives me a feeling of security to have it. I know that it'll always call the right phone numbers on its own. I think it's the best, especially since my daughter wouldn't get anything but the very best for me. She takes very good care of me. I feel confident about the service, even though I really haven't had to use it. Sometimes when they call I don't always respond or don't cooperate all the time, but that's because I'm very hard of hearing and I get confused sometimes. I'm happy about the whole thing. I don't have negative comments about it. As long as I have my little button to press I feel confident in being able to help myself.

I checked them out and they seemed to have the best price. If you call for anything they help you out. On an occasion I became dehydrated and didn't realize it. When I tried to get up, I just slid out of my bed and fell. I pushed the button right and they came and got me right away. I ended up in the hospital, but I was ok. They're very thorough and I'm just completely satisfied with that. I had the one that detected falls but I didn't like that one at all. It seemed like it just went off on its own if you moved even a little bit, so I sent it back and got the regular one. It goes around my neck and it has been great. I haven't used it that much but I'm really liking it so far. I feel safe having it in case I need them here.

I called several places and Medical Alert was the best value service that I could afford. Fortunately I've never had to use it, I guess I just happen to be lucky enough. The pendant is too sensitive. It has gone off a couple of times when I lean over to put the dog's dish down and things like that. I don't know if I'm moving to fast or what, but it always thinks I'm falling. One time the alarm went off accidentally and I never noticed. I had a lot of company at the time and I didn't even hear the phone ring or them calling me. Since no one answered, they sent an ambulance and the police and they came. So, even though it was a bit of a problem, it showed me that it works. They are easy to talk to and I haven't had any problems with them.

We saw it advertised and decided to get it for my husband. So far he hasn't had any falls or accidents, but we have talked to customer service on several occasions. We had the lights go off for a while, and they called us since they were not getting a signal from the thing. They were concerned and wanted to make sure we were ok. They know if the device is not in good working condition and they call us to fix it. So far they've been nice and they've also helped me when I needed to get an upgrade for the device we had because it was dying. They're very good people and I'm sure that if we ever need them, we would be ok. It's amazing to know that they are there for us, and that gives me some relief. I think that anyone that needs it should get it, it's not very expensive and it gives you security.

I got Medical Alert on the first place because I fall down from time to time. It's basically with me all the time, I put it on when I get up in the morning and wear it all day. When I go to bed at night I leave it on the side of my bed. On an occasion, my daughter's doberman knocked me down by accident. I hit the corner of the door and split my head wide open, I managed to push the button and they responded. I got help within 5 minutes, which was pretty great. I think that anyone who is handicapped or elderly should get one, it's a safety precaution that can help you if you have an accident. It probably saved my life.

I'm 89 years old and I live by myself. I do everything on my own, from cooking, work on my yard, and everything that a person would do from day to day or week to week. That's why my daughter and her husband decided to get it for me. I haven't used it, but I punched it once by accident and it went off. The person I talked to was very nice, and I appreciated her help even though it was just a mistake. I do wish it was a little bit cheaper, since I'm on social security and it's hard to get the money, but I manage. In any case I'm glad I have it because it gives my children peace of mind, and I know that I can contact them and get help if I need it.

Before getting it I had fallen several times, so my son and daughter-in-law researched it and helped me get it. It is very easy to use and customer service was helpful with setting it up. I haven't used it since I got it, but I've had a couple of surgeries, including a complete knee replacement. My family likes that I have it because sometimes they are out in the fields while I'm here alone. It makes me feel safer too. I wear the one on my wrist, and I've set it off sometimes when I lean against it, but they have been very nice when I tell them it was a mistake. The price may be a little high, but it's not too much. Besides, it makes a difference to have it and I'm glad I do. Doesn't matter how much I have to pay for it.

I got them because I liked the fact that they notify the ambulance quickly if my mother falls or something. My mother is very active so if she has to go shopping, has a doctor's appointment, or a therapy session, she wears the wrist thing. About 3 or 4 months ago, at maybe 4 o'clock in the morning she wasn't feeling good. She had chest pain, so I suggested she push the button. After she did, the person came on the phone quickly, and an ambulance was there within 15 minutes. They took her off and she went to the hospital for the emergency. So even though she doesn't really have a lot of falls on a typical day, I still feel safer knowing that she's using it.

I have the pendant that I wear all the time expect when it's charging. I'm very pleased with it I had a couple of accidental activation on it and the people who has answered those had been very kind and are glad that I'm okay. I had been dealing with another company and one time I needed them and I pressed the button and I got no answer. A friend was here with me and she ended up turning off that thing and calling 911 on her phone, also the fact that I can take this with me anywhere I go and know that if I press the button somebody's gonna answer me were with the other company if I was away I couldn't do that I would have to depend on dialing 911 on my phone if I could get through this if something happened so this is good that I can do this with your company and I couldn't with the other company.

I discontinued service with Medical Alert due to additional charges on my account that was not authorized and addition to a product that didn’t hold a charge. I tried to resolve these issues with the promise of a new device and refund of the unauthorized charges. Neither promise was completed. The device has been returned and I am still awaiting a refund of the annual payment.

I called to get some type of paperwork on a $15 monthly charge that I am paying. I had previously called when the charge started with no response. This time I did get the paperwork on the Premium Protection Plan which covered $10 but not anything covering the remaining $5 Charge. I called again today 10/9 and have been told that paperwork will be put in the mail. I do think that I should have received this info at the time I agreed to the charges without my having to request it. Note that the call was just about the paperwork and was by phone so your question about time of response below doesn't apply. My use of the devise for an actual fall has received prompt response for all but one instance where it took several tries to connect. One of reasons that I went with your system was the lockbox feature. I am now seeing info on systems that don't require recharging that I might have wanted. Also would like to be able to contact you on-line for issues like this.

My mom is 95 and lives alone. She had fallen before we purchased Medical Alert. This purchase was a great investment due to her recent fall. When her fall occurred, MA responded immediately. They talked to my mom who was not very responsive. Next, MA called the local rescue squad and my sister (I live out of town.). MA gives me peace of mind knowing that my mom is being monitored 24/7! MA was worth the investment.

The button is a little to sensitive for me, I think people who have plenty of hand strength should have an option for an alert that isn't quite so sensitive. I realize it should only be used as a last resort since it's purpose is to save an individual in a situation of dire need. I don't know what a good idea to address this issue would be, in my case like last night, I rolled over in bed and my finger it it just right to set it off. Also, yesterday I was opening a coke bottle and brought it up to my chest since they sometimes require better leverage to open. To my surprise the bottle hit the button and set off a false alarm. Just a thought, I've taken to removing it at night when I go to bed and put it on my night stand. I can still reach it and hit the button, that works for me.

I would like to get monthly reminders of who and in what order my call system has on file. Originally the rep had the order of who should be called in the incorrect order. Also, when my mom had unplugged and plugged the system back in it inadvertently created an event where the last contact person on the contact list was called and in the meantime the police or EMT’s were called out. When I contacted MA, and told them it was a false alarm, they said that they would contact the back up emergency contact to inform them of this. Why wasn’t a follow up report sent? Without this, I have no idea of who was contacted and in what order.

I had to use the service several times when my wife returned from the hospital suffering from colon cancer and several times when my wife was in home hospice care. we lived 60 miles south of Presbyterian hospital in Albuquerque. She suffered for six months before she passed away. Now I have a dvice I wear around my neck that activates the device if I cannot reach the phone. I was told that a woman fell in her home and she laid on the floor for 28 hours before she got help.

We signed up for Medical Alert for my mother in February 2011. They were very reliable in contacting emergency services, and 3 family members whenever the alert was triggered. The company was attentive in contacting my mother periodically to make sure the unit was working. They updated their equipment and alarms periodically or at our request. We were very satisfied with Medical Alert's service.

They have great services. They are quick to respond even if it is a false alarm. My cat twice has stepped on the emergency button during the night and the medics showed up and I didn't realize the button was pushed until they were coming up the steps calling my name. They were very nice and understanding. Now I take the necklace off at night so it doesn't happen again.

Very good service. I live in NC and my mother lives in NH. This was the best company I found after researching many. Set up was extremely easy. Even when my mother lost her bracelet, they replaced it free of charge. I feel much safer knowing my mother has her bracelet on. Plus having the fall detection aspect of the device was what she needed most of all. Now that she's monitored I can breath a sigh of relief knowing that help won't be far away.

They are very prompt to speak when I punch the button whether in the house or outside the house. Have had to do that several times and help was on the way very quickly. One time I had fallen in the yard. They got no answer from me so they tried to call phone number listed and got no one to answer so they sent the EMTs and quick response Fire Response.

Haven't had a problem with the device that wasn't corrected. In addition to the last review I would like to say we were out and visiting an aunt for the day. My mother had a fall and I called the medical alert people to get her assistance. They were able to call EMT to come and assist her to her feet so we could finish our visit. Again they deserve 5 stars. Thank you for all you do.

My 91-year-old blind mother falls frequently, and when she cannot get up, she simply pushes her button and within minutes the EMS team arrives and helps her up and make sure she is OK. Before she had the medical alert, she fell and laid on the floor all night long next to her bed. I never want this to happen again! The device allows my mom to live independently for as long as possible.

It just dropped from my bed to the floor and it dialed Medical Alert. So I know that it's very good if I fall. It's going to go off. The customer service are so so nice. You never get someone that sounds like they are tired or upset because we drop the medical alert and it goes off. They ask if the person is okay and that they are authorized to use it. Then they ask about yourself and if the person that you live with is okay. I just felt really really special.

They were very very helpful in making sure that if something should happen that they could get into the house. They set us up with a lock box and all of those things in the interior. So far, it's been a rather helpful tool for her and gives her a degree of comfort. So we are pleased. They do stay in touch and they want us to stay in touch and when we get negligent, which we often do, they will touch based to find out if everything is okay.

My device accidentally alerted the company and I did not hear the device in the other part of the house and help was here within 10 minutes of when the alert apparently went in. I don't answer the phone if I don't see a name or number I recognize and therefore didn't get the call from Medical Alert. My son called as you had notified him and his name showed on the phone so I answered his call. Now I know that a call from Medical Alert will show up on phone as "Rap Resp" so will know to answer it if it happens again.

They are quick to answer your questions. I am simply put out of one thing. I did not even have the device for two months and was informed that I had to get another device for around my neck to do different things. I think because it was so new I should have gotten it to begin with and not made to pay an additonal $40.00 for it. If this happens again I will simply cancel it. It is not as if I am senile because I still drive to and from work and work every day!

It gives us, (the family) piece of mind in the event of a fall. However the person who is benefiting from the service believes it is a waste of money and refuses to wear her bracelet. Her family is grateful that there are several buttons in her home in the event of the inevitable fall. She believes we should cancel the service because she has never had to use it! Very frustrating for family who live a good distance from her.

Very easy to use and I find it very efficient. I did a lot of research on other brands and companies before deciding on Medical Alert. I have the GPS because we do a lot of bike riding and I wanted security if something happened. I feel confident if I have an emergency that they will be on top of it. When I do my tests they are right there. Anybody I have interfaced with has been more than courteous and they take the time to explain stuff. They are always there when I pick up the phone.

Medica Alert is always helpful with answering questions and walking me through things. I have always been satisfied when I have questions. I know they are there if I need them. I feel comfortable having it because I am a widow who lives alone. I wear the bracelet all the time. It is expensive and hard for me to keep up but I feel I need it in case of an emergency.

it's worth the amount of money you pay for it. I am very happy with them. I use it in the mornings when I go for my mile long walks and when I run my medical appointments and stuff like that. It works and anytime I have accidentally dropped it or do something I shouldn't, it goes off and they are there. They have great customer service, they call and make sue verything is okay and the device is working.

I've had this sort of system before for years but I just moved so I had to get a new one. I found their ad and I thought I would check them out and I was very impressed. I know it is there if I need it and that's very good. I accidentally pushed the button one time and they called me back right away to see if there was a problem. They are a little expensive.

Easy to carry around the apartment and the main unit is right there in the middle so it's convenient. I wear it around my neck when I am at home. Once I accidentally set it off when I was sleeping and they were very attentive to see if I was alright. Sometimes I think the microphone isn't loud enough when I am in the shower but I was able to communicate with someone when I tested it.

Response time is really good and the device is really loud so my dad can hear it really well. One time my dad fell out of his chair and couldn't get himself back up and the paramedics came and were able to get him back in his chair. The people are always helpful though I have had to call for different reasons and I do have to wait quite a while because they are pretty busy.
