It takes way too long to connect to a service representative. This jeopardizes the clients well-being.

Would have rated higher but disappointed I was not notified when my Mom's power went out.

Reply from Medical Guardian

We appreciate the feedback. Unfortunately, we do not offer a remote power outage notification feature for our Classic Guardian at this point in time. However, we do offer a low battery alert that will go out if her Classic Guardian had to switch to battery back-up and that back-up was running low. If you are interested in receiving these kinds of notifications, please reply directly to this message with your full name and will be in touch to explain your options for setting this up. Any information shared in your response will only be provided to Medical Guardian and will not be posted publicly. Have a lovely day!

Linda, typical response speeds for our systems are under 60 seconds under normal conditions. If your tests are falling outside of this range, feel free to reach back out with a message. If you provide the name of the device user, address and phone number, we should be able to locate the account and reach out. This information will not be posted publicly. Thanks for reaching out and have a great day!

Anonymous Joliet, IL

I got it because I needed some kind of protection and since I liked what they said and offered, I decided to get it. We haven't actually had to use it as of yet but in the four months that we've had it we haven't had any problems either. I should probably test the apparatus though. The microphone is in a completely different room from the thing that I wear. My sister has a different system and I know that that one has the microphone right on the apparatus that you wear. If I were to fall at the other end of the house I'm not sure I'll be able to talk to them. That's one of my concerns with it.

Thank you for the review. If you push your help button and are out of range to be able to speak through your speaker, you will still get the help you need so long as you are within range for the button press to go through (this varies from unit to unit but would be at least 350 ft). The operator would assume an emergency is occurring and proceed with your emergency plan that was previously put into place. If you are interested, we do offer a unit, the Active Guardian, that has a microphone right on the button that you wear. If you would like more information on that unit, reply directly to this message with your full name, address and phone number so we can reach out. Any information you share will not be posted on and will only be shared with Medical Guardian. Thanks again for reaching out and have a great day!

Reply from Medical Guardian

Doris, thank you for the feedback. Fall detection can lead to false alarms, especially for more active customers such as yourself, but there are ways to minimize these. We would like to have a member of our Customer Care team reach out and discuss your usage to see what we can do about that. Would you be willing to provide us with some information to locate your account? Any information you share in your response won't be posted to . It will only be shared directly with Medical Guardian. If you could provide us with your full name and any other identifying information (i.e. address or phone number), we will see what we can do to help. Thanks again for the review and have a lovely week!
