It's expensive. I got a new one and it was supposed to charge up faster and it was a little smaller and its what their intention was I guess, but it needs to be charge like twice a week so that isn't very good. Guardian comes out right away after I push the button. I've used it several times and whenever I have pushed it, they come out and it do real good with the fire department. When I fall it had never gone off, I had to call them. It would be better if I fell and there was an alert.

They're very professional and they answer my questions and they're very courteous. I like that it's reasonable and it's convenient. I tested it and I haven't actually used it as there was no need for me to use it as of yet.

Operates well during tests and it is very responsive, there is nothing to dislike. The only feedback I have is when you replace the device, they should have a way to return the device so it can be discarded properly.

So far I like everything about medical guardian. They answer within a shoer while. I wear it all the time, in and out of doors. It is a bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

It's a pretty good product. They've been super responsive. They call back within 15 seconds. I like that it is small and convenient. I dislike that it goes off frequently by accident.

When I need them, they are always available. They come on immediately. Everything has been perfect so far. I am very happy with it. I can leave the house and know my husband is taken care of if he falls.

Kinda big and awkward but it works. I have hit a few times accidentally and I have always gotten an immediate response no matter what time of day or night it is. They are very concerned.

Customer support has been very good. I test it about every three months and I had to use it once because I feel in the yard. It was good. I feel the essence of security when I am out by myself.

I've never had a Medical Alert before but before getting mine I did some inquiring to other people and after a couple of weeks decided on Medical Guardian. So far I've been very pleased.

Just ordered this service for my Mom recently, luckily she hasn't had any accidents and needed to use her device, but it's great for peace of mind when elderly family members live alone.

They are always very friendly and do things when you call. It doesn’t take forever to get through to them. I like that the device calls a call center not 911 automatically in case it s not an emergency.

The only problem I have with the device is there is a little light that blinks, I notice it night. It is probably there to make it easy for people to find but it bothers me. I called customer service and they told me to push a thing but it didn’t work.

The reason I did not give a 5 is because we haven't had to use it yet. So far, your sales people were wonderfully thorough and helpful. Your testing capabilities have been perfect so far. The website was helpful. I will hold out on the 5 until your services are actually needed and see what happens then.

Disappointed that that you system does not alert me to the fact that medical/law enforcement personnel hae been contacted. Inadvertently trigged my unit and was not aware of doing so till the aforementioned were at my front door. Being a new subscriber I did not recognize your calling number when yoHave subsequently taed your calling numbers to my Button so I will immediately recognize any call from you. Would be nice if we were alerted to activation in a manner, other than a phone call. Possible to have the unit flash??

On the occasions we’ve used it, they have performed exactly as I expected. I needed the fire department come and help me. My husband lost his so I think they should replace it but I don’t know what the procedure is.

A bit heavy for me. I wanted the bracelet because that is what my brother had but that didn’t work out so it is heavy around my neck. I test it every month and they’ve done a good job. The battery doesn’t hold.

Someone is there on the other end twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. They are easy to talk to. The person I spoke to spoke slowly and clearly. I was neat that she could tell me how much power I had left.

If I have another bad fall, I feel like I am protected. It makes you feel secure. I have a hard time hearing and I had to ask them to speak up, that is the only thing I didn’t like because they were supposed to know.

Works when I test it. It gives me security because I know my wife has the freedom to go places and not worry if I get in trouble because I can press the button. They are always ready to answer my questions.

When we ordered the devise, we ordered the fall protection. Some how the sales lady did not put it on the order. This devise was purchased for my 88 year old aunt who already had fallen in the past. She fell again after the devise was purchased and she had the devise on, but since it did not have the fall protection, she laid on her concrete car port for an unknown amount of time with a skull fracture, brain bleed, every rib broken on right side and a broken pelvic bone until her neighbor found her. We thought we had the fall protection, but since the sales lady for this company did not do her job, she laid their and suffered. The company offered us lifetime fall protection, which is nice but not enough for what my aunt went thru, and we asked for it in writing and we still have not received it, so can the whole company be trusted?

The device is a little bit hard to figure out how to exactly wear it. A shirt with a pocket when wearing some kind of covering as a sweater in winter is easy, but in summer with few clothes on it is hard to figure out what to do with it.

If I press the button and it is not an error, they automatically dispatch someone out. They respond immediately and ask me if I am okay. I like that I can wear it in the shower because it is waterproof.

The only criticism I have is I never got a full accounting of what I paid and how much was for the hardware and the service. I’ve tested it several times and works like it is supposed to. It was easy to set up and use. It is sensitive and they are very responsive. It comes in wrist bands or necklaces so you can make adaptable to what you need.

My daughter got it for me because I fall a lot. I am satisfied with it. I have tested it to make sure it is charged about once a month. I have also used it several time when I have fallen and I can’t get up. Somebody comes on the line and they send somebody out to help me.

I would prefer it if it were lighter. It is a little cumbersome to wear. I have to be careful because one time I set it off in a restaurant and I didn’t notice so they called the restaurant and the police were there to check on me. They did what they said they would do it was my own stupidity that made the call.

Happy to have it. I fell down and 911 came and helped me. The ambulance took me to the hospital. It is kind of big so I don’t love wearing it but I have had to use it two times and it has been there for me every time.

It gives me peace of mind knowing that even when I am not in the house my dad has some to call to help. Each time we have tested it, it has been really good. My dad has even accidentally bumped it and it worked. We have it set up so it calls me first.

I dislike having to wear it. It's big and for the technology of the time it seems like it's too big. Maybe the technology is starting to show its age. I don't really see what was wrong with the med alert bracelet that I had years and years ago. It says one eight hundred number on it, it's a lot less money too.

The device is lightweight, it can get wet, the magnet is nice to get off and on for my husband. We had the option if he falls it'll go off automatically without having to push it. Stays charge for quite a while.

We had to use it. The device did not work as planned when the signal went off. She hit the button and they were trying to get in touch with her and talking to her but she couldn't hear them because the signal was breaking up. She couldn't understand what they're saying. I got a call on my phone and my phone said spam alert, they left voicemail that said your family member is not responsive we're sending EMT. She was okay but the medical Gaiden box was defective.

What I really like is the security that it gives me. My wife has passed away and I'm here in this house alone and I've already fallen once. That's one of the reasons that my son bought it for me and I'm thankful he did.

We have it for my husband who has Parkinson’s so it is relief for us because he is outside a lot. He is very good at wearing and it doesn’t bother him so it must not be too uncomfortable.
