We got this system for our 90 year-old Mother. It seems to be working fine excet for a few false alarms. Not sure whether it's the system (ultra-sensitive?) or something our Mother is doing. Time will tell. Overall, very pleased with system and response center.

My experience with Medical Guardian was wonderful from my first call to completely setting up and testing the equipment. I would definitely recommend the to anyone who needs the service.

The "Panic" button on pendant is TOO sensitive. I am almost 94, still carry clean laundry the short distance from dryer to my bedroom to sort. The first day I wore the pendant i held clean bedding lightly against my chest-- off went the alarm and I had to rush to the speaker to explain. Now only wear it when I go out to get my mail- just at foot of my driveway AND when I carry recycle things two steps down to my garage or go to food storage cupboards there.... . In case i fall do not want to lie on concrete for hours nor the aggregate driveway. ' For this I am paying over $400 per year? An absurd price! Can't wear it in bed for same reason. I was told by your Rep. Harry, in New York, that I would be sent a bracelet alarm; Instead received two pendants. A protective shield over button to be used as a choice would be helpful. Have not fallen YET, Perhaps today? For the above reasons I could not recommend your device to elderly friends and contemporaries.' Cynical- Grace Stewart

Set up was easy. Assistance via phone stayed until all questions were answered. Alarm was ested and answered promptly. When alarm was set off accidentally, we were able to stop the 911 call to the house.

I was pleasantly surprised when I rec'd it. the only fault I could find is that it would be great if it were totally water proof so one could wear it in the shower were one might just have a mishap. so far I haven't had to use it but am pleased with it.

Craig Orem, UT

I purchase this medical alert system for my aging mother and have been happy since doing so. I worry about her a lot and this takes some of the worry off of my mind knowing that in an emergency there is a better chance she will be alright. The service is very affordable especially for the peace of mind!
