I ended up going with one of the competitors that ended up costing me two hundred and fifty dollars, but I refused to sign their contract. I researched and got recommendations from people that have used your company. I've had full satisfaction with your product especially for the price range. It's able to give people access the medical services at the touch of a button. My mother uses it as a necklace and it's very comfortable. I also like that it has a an identifying green light so you can see it at any angle.

I picked them basically because of the price and the usability it offered for my husband. It has been very good for him. I've set it off accidentally 3 times. One time it happened while I was at the doctor's office. They ended up contacting my daughter because I was out of range and they couldn't get a hold of me. They responded very well. The wristband that they sent us is very impractical, very bulky. The one that he wears around the neck wouldn't stay put when we put it under his shirt. We ended up sending it to a jeweler so they would put some kind of clasp on it that would work. Now it's fine, it can lay flat on his chest. They also need to revamp the way it hooks up on the dock. Still, it's a good service with a good response time.

I knew that if I pressed the button that they would get me help. I've had a prior stroke so that's why I got medical guardian. I've never had to use it, but I do tests occasionally. Though I was disappointed when the necklace fell apart. Though I need to cancel it since Medical Guardian doesn't cover you outside of your home or in a different state.

It offered what I needed and for that price, it was a pretty good deal. I've been fortunate enough that I've never used it. I have a cat and he once pressed the button while I was sleeping, they responded right away. I've never used it for a medical emergency, but the customer service is excellent. I got the simple system, I don't need the GPS or anything. The simple one is exactly what I need, but if I need to upgrade I'll do it.

I got Medical Guardian because I'm able to take the unit with me. I wear it all the time while I shower which I really appreciate since I fell a while back. I haven't really used customer support but I do feel like I'm being taken care of. I can call and ask questions anytime I needed too. I feel absolutely comfortable wearing it and I know my family is happy that I have this watch that takes care of me.

I'm a senior citizen and my daughter looked and compared different medical devices online. She decided that Medical guardian would be the best one for me. I put it on the morning when I get out of bed and wear it all day unless I have company. Once my electricity went out one time about four to five months ago and they called and told my daughter about it and fixed it. I've never had to use though I've had it for about two years, but I feel more secure with it.

I've looked it up online and it was also recommended to me. Others seemed much more complicated, it was easy to use, the representatives were professional and answers all my question. The button is a bit sensitive, it's gone off accidentally many times. I like the lock box it's very convenient. Other units didn't have that and I want my door to be busted down. I like that the representatives are not foreigners. They talk very clearly and very loudly and at a normal pace since we're elderly and have trouble hearing. I also like that we don't have to charge this unit, that's a great feature.

I felt that as her sister getting Medical guardian for her, there will always be someone out there. She's never had to use it, she just wears it as a necklace around her neck in case of an emergency. We also have the lock box in case of an emergency. They contact her to check up that everything is working fine when she didn't contact them. They've always been We professional.

The price and features that were being offered was the deciding factor. It seemed like the company was the better one to go with. My mother is the one who was using it. She hasn't had any incidents since she's gotten it. She does test it monthly though. It works like they said it would work. They respond immediately. I like the lock box feature. We feel secure.

Fortunately I haven't had to use it except to test it, but every time I have tested it it's worked out great. They're always willing to help and help figure out if anything is going wrong with the device. They're always very pleasant and they're quick to answer.

I always wanted something I can take anywhere and would connect anywhere. They also gave me a key and lock box if something were to happen since I do live alone. When I had an incident in which I was offering of shortness of breath, they immediately contacted my family members. Even when I accidentally press the button, they're always there. I like that the battery just won't die don, it will remind me that I need to charge it. Which is really helpful. They've never failed me and I feel good that someone will always be there to help whenever I need it.

It's very dependable and the range they have allows my mother to have the ability to move around the whole house and outside. It's very convenient. We've tested it and it works well. The only issue we've had is the battery and that was replaced immediately by Medical Guardian. Sometimes it's not easy to reach them, they need more people on the phones to take the calls. The representatives though have been very nice and very courteous.

Originally I didn't know anything about any companies. I found Medical Guardian in the phone book and that's how I hooked it up. I've set it off before by accident and that serves as a test of course to see if it works. I'm pleased they answer quickly and effectively. I've had some problems with the GPS on the system. It seems to locate me other places, but dispatch does a pretty good job on helping me out.

My mother is the one that uses it and she once had an incident where they called me in the middle of the night informing me that she didn't feel well. Since I live in New Jersey, she used Medical Guardian and was able to get help immediately. It's a good system that works efficiently and respond fast.

I found their advertisement in the mail. My husband is the reason why we have it, he is the one who uses it. Whenever he doesn't feel well he presses the button. The paramedics come and take him to the hospital and I really like that fact that they go and call you to inform you of what is going on. So the staff at Medical Guardian are very thorough. They're always there for us. I also like that they give you the option to wear it as a necklace or a watch.

We research online and Medical Guardian had the most features that we thought would be needed for our use. I have it for security and I've never had to use it, but I do keep it charged. I use it everywhere like when I'm in the shower. It just has all the features I need like the built in GPS. I don't have to worry about falling and no one finding me. They'll be able to locate and resolve those kind of issues.

Luckily I haven't had to use it at all, but I have mistakenly hit the device. I received a call and they asked if I needed a medical help. I said no, that it was just an accident.

I just needed to have it in order to protect myself because I live alone. My children made the choice of getting it for me after I got deathly sick. I take the wristband with me everywhere I go. I just feel secure having it with me. I used it recently in January when I became ill. I was about to faint but I managed to push the medical alert button. They were at my door within 5 minutes. I think it's a very worthwhile thing to have for elderly people that live alone.

The research I did and the demeanor of the person I talked too, I told them my needs. Medical Guardian has fulfilled those needs on behalf of my deaf aunt. We even named the GPS George, so I always tell her to never leave the house without George. I like that Medical Guardian never charges you for mistakes or for tests. It's very comfortable for my aunt and simple to use. I would recommend Medical Guardian to anyone I know since it does the job.

I went online and research a lot of different medical products like Medical Guardian. One of the main reasons was that in case my mother falls she would be talking to people from the United States, it's not outsourced or anybody out of the country which was a big deal for us. I called them and the representatives were terrific and very friendly. She uses it on her wrists like bracelets. She hits the button once a month to test it out. Thank goodness she hasn't fallen, but if she does, no matter where she is I know she can get the help she needs.

I read up on it and it sounded very interesting and very reliable. I knew that my mom wouldn't go out without me so I know that it sounded like the right product for her. When my mother moved in with me she never left the house unless I was with her, but now that she has medical guardian she does. The customer service is great. We would check every once in a while. After a bad incident on where she fell and broke her wrist, we can't seem to find the device. We're ordering a new one.

Customer service has been okay to say the least. They do respond very quickly and they did a very good job. It's very easy to use, nothing too complicated about it.

If I recall correctly, I think I just saw it on TV and thought to check them out. I called in, and got started. I had to use it twice in one night. I had an infection, which I didn't know I had. I became very weak and fell. I managed to crawl to it and I think I pushed the button, though I don't remember. They responded, of course, but I wasn't taken to the hospital. Later on that night the same thing happened, I called, they alerted my son, and I was taken to the hospital. They did what they said they would do.

I picked them for my mother because of the price and because we would get notified if she fell. She wears it 24/7 but does take it off at night and puts it to charge by her bed side. If it's not charged I get notices about that, just in case there's something wrong. One night she set it off accidentally and all of a sudden we heard someone talking. They were calling us to let us know that the alarm had gone off so I just told them I'd call her myself since she's hard of hearing. I was very impressed with that, especially because they responded immediately.

I think I picked them because of the advertisements. The service is available anywhere you go but you have to bring the transmitter out with you, otherwise it won't work. When I pushed the button accidentally the rescue team got here in no time at all. I was embarrassed but at least from that I learned that they respond quickly. I did fall last month, but my family was here so I didn't need to use it.

Since I live in my daughter's house, she got this set up for me. I usually have the pendant around my neck when I'm by myself. I've had it for 3 years now and so far I've only used it once. They were very prompt though and they got in touch with someone that helped me right away. I got attention within five minutes of pressing the button. My only problem was not with Medical Guardian but with the ambulance service that they sent. I got a bill from them for $300 because I wasn't taken to the hospital and was treated at home.

I just happened to find them on the internet and called them. I talked to someone, ordered it for my mom, and it was delivered. She's 94 and lives on her own so I gave it to her in case she fell and needed help. The button itself is very easy to use, which is something important for my mom. Customer support was helpful in getting it all set up. No one came to the house but we just plugged everything in, did a test run with them, and it worked. It was all very easy to do and we didn't have any problems. We've had a good experience with them.

It was the accessibility of the button and the radius for my grandmother in which she would be able to press the button and police or fire department can respond. My grandmother used it when she got stuck in the bathtub and the fire department showed up and got her the help we needed. We initially got Medical Guardian after a horrid incident where she had no one to help her and had to be in intensive care because of it. We like it because somebody responds immediately.
