I do check it monthly like they ask me to. And I check it in different places. I always check the answering time in roam. I check it at different times of the day too and they always respond and they always check thoroughly to make sure I'm okay, my husband is okay, and everyone in my household is okay. I've never checked it and not gotten a response.'

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.

The statistics showed me what they offered and the twenty four seven coverage That no matter where you are, you're covered. We don't use it, but if my husband has any complications I know that all I have to do is push the button and we'll receive help. I always do monthly tests and it's reassuring how attentive they are. They're very prompt and attentive. They give you any information that you may ask.

I've never really had to use it for anything other than testing it every month. I've also hit the button accidentally. They will immediately get on the phone and ask me if I'm in trouble. Now I'm having a little problem with one of the pieces. I've found them very nice and pleasant to talk to. They sent me a brand new, updated gizmo recently and everything was paid for.

I had a need for the service so, when I saw an ad on TV, I decided to get it. I've used it twice. Once I fell and passed out. Apparently I pushed the button though I don't remember doing that. The second time I fell and couldn't get up, so I pushed it. On that occasion my son was around so he helped me up and we told them we didn't need the help. They have always responded immediately and have been very understanding too. I'd like them to have the kind of stuff that lets you use it when you're not at home.

I picked it because of the price and the reviews they had. Our experience with them has been great, they've done a great job for us in the last year. We have had a couple of false alarms but it has worked well each time. They were also very nice and informative, letting us know that everything was ok. The only thing is that the bad on the wristband gets dirty easily.

My husband kept falling a couple of times so I was recommended Medical Guardian by someone with a similar experience who were very happy with their service. There was an incident when he must've pushed the button he took it off for his shower, the fire department, police and everybody showed up. They responded beautifully and everything worked it out excellent. They're very attentive.

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. It's easy for my Grandmother to access the big button.

I fall quite a bit. I've had 4 strokes and my balance is off, so sometimes I fall and can't get back up and need to call for help. Someone referred Medical Guardian to me and, since the price was right, I got it. They respond right away when the button is pressed. They're very responsive and very pleasant too. I know that if I need help, all I have to do is hit the button and somebody will be there.

I tried a few and when we change phone companies, the first company would no longer be compatible with our medical device so we opt to change our medical device. That's why we have Medical Guardian now. I just wear the device around my neck and if I ever need them push it then I know I'll get the help I need. I always tested it and it works every time.

I test it a lot and there's always someone there ready to talk with me. It takes about a minute, but they always answer and I just tell them it's a test and that I have no major problems. I had to use it one time in 2016. They called an ambulance for me and, when I was able to respond, I talked to the lady on the phone. They took me to the hospital and that was that. The price is good. I believe they will be there for me whenever I need them.

I like what it was offering. It's affordable and my sons went ahead and bought it for me. I believe in them and it's worked. I had to use it when I fell 2 months ago and almost broke my back, my sons pressed the button and help arrived. I contact Medical Guardian to make sure everything works out. They're always compassionate and kind. I love that you can wear it as a necklace especially when I'm in the shower.

I'm older now and live by myself, so I wanted to make sure that I'm safe. A friend referred me to them and I got it. I always have it around my neck. The other day my little granddaughter pushed the button and the fire truck was out here within 5 minutes. I've never had any problems with it. Anytime I call, they always help me out with any issue I might have. It makes me feel safer.

My husband doesn't leave the house much so this service was just right for us. It's not very expensive, it met our needs, and it just works. They're very nice and polite. I've needed them several times and, every time, they have been there for us on time. When my husband went into cardiac arrest they were here right away. I just pushed the button and they came on the line. I told them I needed an ambulance and they sent one right away. They saved his life.

I was so sick at the time that I just made the decision to get this. I've been wearing the watch and it works very well. It's easy to use and unobtrusive. I've also found that they are always very helpful and supportive. I have confidence in that if I ever need it, they will be there to help me and that they will call the ambulance or fire department.

I saw an advertisement for them on TV and decided to get it. I liked that it has the GPS box that you carry around. That gives the person that uses it the freedom to go places. I have accidentally set it off and their response time is great. Within a couple of seconds, they were on the phone with me and had 911 on the way. When I explained that it had been an accident they called the ambulance off and were very understanding of the situation. They're just a great company, very reasonably priced. With what they offer they give our family peace of mind.

At the time I needed it for my wife. It was all pretty easy to install. With the device that you carry around your neck there's always a chance that you'll pin it against a cabin or something and send a false alarm. When I hit the button it went through the process and I got a call from them. They asked me if everything was alright and several other questions to make sure I was okay before they hung up. They were very thorough in what they did. I was surprised at how quick the call came in. It's a great system, a life saving device.

Someone gave this to me after I had a bad fall. My friends just searched and got me the best service they could find and that happened to be Medical Guardian. I've used it several times whenever I fall. They are very quick to get here and pick me back up from the floor. They're always very pleasant too. Sometimes it seems like it's too easy to set it off though.

I did a lot of looking but the fact that it had GPS tracking integrated to it was the most important thing to me. That's why I purchased it for my mom. She's elderly and lives alone, so she wears it daily. Every time I've called them the people there have been very nice. They've fixed every problem and answered my questions. It has been a dependable and reliable service.

I was visiting my dad in Missouri and a friend recommended it to me. I've never had to use it, but I wear it while I'm at home. I've tested it a few times and always get a quick response. I've also gotten a call from the company who wanted to know how things were. I really appreciated that. They're very professional and nice. It's given my son and I peace of mind.

I'm 80 years old and I want to live alone, the only way I can actually do that is by having this with me. It's wonderful, very easy and simple to wear. I have it around my neck all the time and I don't even notice that it's there. They are very attentive and always respond when I check it to make sure that everything is working. They have sent out an ambulance twice when the alert went off. Everything worked out the way it was supposed to. It makes me feel very secure.

Since my husband passed away I feel like I've been very proactive in getting something in case I need help. I didn't want my children to come a day later and find me on the floor. I talked with some friends that had Medical Guardian and decided that that would probably be the best way to go. I feel comfortable with it. I haven't used it but one of my friends did. About a month ago she called them and got help very quickly. Every time I call with a simple question they are very nice and informative. I always get the information that I need. I've been very satisfied and pleased with it.

It was all advertised in Reader's Digest and one of my friends at church brought them to my attention. I'm a new widow so I try to keep the device with me at all times. I usually check it once a month and that's it. They always answer promptly when the device works right, though sometimes it doesn't work. It's also a bit difficult to get through to them in my area. Otherwise, it's a fine device.

I like the fact that the GPS bit goes with me wherever I am. If I leave the house, I always take the bit with me. Otherwise, I just keep it on its charger at home. I also like the lockbox that I put on my front door. That way, if I'm not able to get to the door, the EMS can get in to help me anyways. One of their customer support representatives tried to sell me something, which I didn't really like. After that though I talked to someone else that was very helpful.

I picked it because of the GPS. When I test it they are always very friendly. I was at a restaurant when I pushed the button by accident when I was putting on my coat. They called all the people in my emergency list and found where I was. It worked as it should've. I feel comfortable having it with me when I go anywhere. In case I need them, I know they are available. I think they are reasonably priced too.

I did some research on it and since they were very highly rated by other customers, I got it for my mother. It's something that's easy for her to use. I love the fact that she can just take it with her wherever she goes. Every time I've called with questions they've been able to answer them for me. They have been very reassuring. She feels very secure having it in case an emergency happens.

They had an advertisement on TV and so I called to sign up for it. I haven't used it, but I do wear it everyday to go shopping, to the doctors and when I'm at home. I carry around the smaller device with me so I have access to it. I love that they called me a few days before they were going to charge me which I thought was nice of them. They sounded genuine on asking how I've been and how things are.

I have trouble walking and, after my husband died, I was afraid of falling while being alone. That's why I thought it would be best to get something like this. My son helped me find the best option and signed me up for Medical Guardian. Most of the time I'm at home so I just wear the button around. I also have one that I can use outside but, because of the weather, I haven't had a chance to try it. When I call to check on my equipment they always seem to be there in case I need them. I'm very satisfied with the product.

This was recommended by the people who give me my diabetic supplies. I've only had to use it to test it once a month and once by mistake. They've always been very prompt to respond and they always answer all my questions. They've gone above and beyond even when my daughter's dog chewed on the bracelet. That part is fine since it's rubber, I can even take it into the shower with me. Thing is that I'm allergic to rubber, so I had to switch arms and use cream when I wear it. Still, I'm perfectly satisfied with it.

I've had it for several years. I found out about it through an advertisement. I have fallen several times, just walking to my yard. So my husband wanted me to have something because of it. I haven't used it yet, but it gives me comfort knowing that I have someone and they are very responsive. Even when I have pushed it by accident, the response time is immediate. It feels like security whether you're in your yard, in your house or going out.

I got it for my mom because of the nationwide coverage, no matter where, my mom is one hundred percent covered. She fortunately hasn't used it. So far it's mostly been a peace of mind that she's in good hand from the time she sleeps to the time she wakes up. I think they should approve the wristband or perhaps create a belt clip. The necklace works great.

I did a lot of research for my mother. I researched different companies and Medical Guardian is the best one for her. My mother fell outside and couldn't get up, but she was able to push the button and get help right away. They are excellent, they respond immediately and get her the help she needs. I makes me feel better since I live six and a half hours away. It makes her feel better because she knows the she can just push the button to get help.

After reading the literature on them I decided to get it for my mother. It helps us keep track and take care of her to make sure she's safe. Especially when she's out in the yard or stuff like that. It has worked every time we need it. They also have good natured people on the other end of the line. They don't get angry at her when she pushes the button accidentally, she's always treated very kindly. Everything has gone smoothly so far. Anytime I've needed them to explain something to us they do it very clearly.

I've checked online and Medical Guardian seems the best one to go with. I got it for my dad, he is ninety. I do the test and they always immediately answer make sure everything's okay and they've been great. It's a nice wrist band, he doesn't take it off. I like the wrist band, it feels more like a watch.

It's the right equipment. My husband used it one morning while I was gone and he fell in the bathroom between the toilet and bath tub. He couldn't get up so he pushed the button and a rescue squad showed up. They have been so supportive and have gotten us exactly what we need. It gives a real sense of security. You know that no matter what happens, you're not alone. There's always within reach.

After doing some research on the internet I found that it has very good reviews and has fairly price. I chose it for my mother she uses it at all times. The support seems to be really good, I've got a couple incidences where she have has fallen and actually used her button and they've been very quick to respond. I think the device is very well made. Medical guardian is a good company and I'm glad I found that for her.

It was the most reasonable one to research so we ended up getting it. Last December I fell while I was all alone in my house. I was wearing the pendant like always when I'm alone. I pressed it and within fifteen minutes, the emergency crew showed up to my home. I don't think you can put a price on being rescued and receiving medical help when you need. Worth the money. It works when I need it, what more could you ask.

I got it because I'm sick. I just went online, saw the company, and clicked on it to order it. I had to use it once when I was very sick with the flu. I called them and they took me to the emergency room. They were really good and responded within a minute or so. That is kind of a long wait time though, especially when you're sick and need to get in touch with emergency services. Still, it worked pretty well. I think it's a little expensive though, it should be half the price it is. I mean, $44.95 is a little expensive for a button that you push to get in touch with paramedics.

I looked online and did a comparison. The other company was great, but you guys have the best response time which is really what I'm looking for. I actually still haven't used it, though my dog did accidentally pushed it. Everything worked out well. They were very kind, considerate and responsive. I like the choice of being able to wear it as a necklace. I wear it in the shower, I wear it everywhere. I like how accessible it is. The feeling of being secure is really nice especially for my age. Knowing that I'm not alone and there's someone there for me.

It gave me peace of mind because I was all alone. It's a comfort to know that I have it hanging around my neck. All I have to do is push the button if I need it. Now I have family close by so I can get help if I fall. Most of the times I've used it was by accident when I turned over in bed. They have called me to make sure things are working right for me and that everything is ok. I'm not really able to get out and walk down the street, otherwise I would certainly have it with me when I do that. Right now I'm going through physical therapy to strengthen my legs, so maybe when I'm stronger I'll be able to do that. I feel like I can get help with it if I need it. I do have to remember to keep the battery charged. One time I lost my device. I didn't know where it was so I called them. A girl helped me find it in my bathroom, even though I couldn't remember leaving it there. I do think it's a little expensive. I have tried looking around for something cheaper but Medical Guardian works so I'm sticking with it.

I did research on it, the reviews were and I'm satisfied with the service we're getting. We haven't truly used it. We have tested it out though. It's simple enough for my father to understand. He wears two, one sensitive to falls during the day and the regular one during the night. I'm confident that he knows how to use it and that it's secure. The call operators are courteous, professional, and answer quickly. It's easy to hook up and accessible. Hopefully we don't have to use it, but we're confident in the way I'm alerted, then my husband, my fathers caregiver and the EMT's show up.

I got it for my father since he just turned 92, we needed something that he could carry with him. He fortunately has never used it. I do a monthly test on the system. Only issue I have with it is that it seems to take a while for someone to contact me. I feels like there's a waiting period. We've never had any problems and he's had it for several years.

I decided to get it for my mom because I googled medical guardian and I found the reviews from others users were pretty good. We had to use it when my mother fell and she had broken her hip and she push the button. The operator came on and stayed with her, they got all the family members together which were around town and contacted. Of course they contacted the ambulance so it turned out that they're were able to save her life and get her to the hospital at the same time the family was there to help her. The service is excellent and works. We are so happy with them.

My daughter got it and I've been pleased. I have had lots of troubles with my little machine, sometimes it blinks and sometimes it doesn't and I've reported it and it has been fixed and I have no problem now. One day I was unconscious at home for about two and half hours and I called and they came to my house in an ambulance, I wasn't pleased with my paramedic, he did a good job but only that he just didn't seem trustworthy, it was more of a sense or something, I just wasn't comfortable

I like Medical Guardian because I can take it with me, wherever I go and I have the service. Anytime I needed to call them even to just do the regular check they've been very helpful and answer quickly. Somehow I pushed the button and I didn't know what I did. Medical Guardian called and I could not heard what they said because I was at a party. My sons kept calling me and the police was looking for me, as they couldn't find out where I was with the GPS. So that's the only time I've had to use it.
