We have tested it and they did respond pretty quick. I like the fact that I would be notified if something happened to my husband.

Not really sure how to phrase this but it seems that you’re paying for something you hope to never use. It might be nice if occasionally at a specific time someone would check in with the individual wearing the device.

It takes so long to charge. The bracelet was unusable for me, it was way too big and uncomfortable on my wrist, so I wear the pendant around my neck every day. It gives me and my husband a sense of security.

Rita Middletown, DE

I come to my mom's about once a week and this unit has a little green light in the middle of it, almost every time I come, almost every week I come that thing's flashing. And when I called them before, they said flashing means there's a problem. So I unplug the phone, I unplug the medical unit, I plug it all back in a green light solved and it's working again. But when I come down here a week from now, it more than likely that thing's gonna be flashing again, meaning it is not working. When I test it they do answer.
