It's a very small device. I just have to press the button to make sure that it was working and sure thing a few seconds later I hear my mom's name and they ask "Are you okay?". I liked it.

My string is broken and I don't know where to get the replacement for it. I ran into our washing machine the other day inadvertently and I called in to the call center to verify if everything was functioning and it was so it's fine. It seems to be pretty rugged.

I'm very happy, just very pleased and everything's working fine. I dropped it and the voice told me they recognized the fall, but I dropped the device so everything was fine but it did work. I wish I didn't have to charge it every three days.

The secure feeling, just knowing that I can get immediate medical attention. I have not had any emergency as yet but I know that the fall alert works and I've recommended Medical Guardian to several friends.

I've not had any problems with it at all. I love it. As soon as we push the button it calls one of the reporters and they they call 911 immediately, so it is great. They were very friendly and very very informative.

We live on a farm so if anything happened to him, it would be hard for us to find him. As long as he's got his device I feel really safe for him. I am very satisfied with it. I like that they answer really quick.

I got this little black thing hanging around my neck and if I fall or need help, I could just smash that button. That's that's good security for me as I have fallen and needed sutures multiple times.

I was so pleased with it I told a friend about it and he ordered one. The fact that it's a GPS is also very reassuring. Someone has responded almost immediately the times it's been activated. Rapid response.

I like having it but I don't like it flashing, it's super bright. I had an accident when I was opening the mail box, something happened electronically when I put key in the box and it made the thing come on and somebody was there immediately.

I love the app because it allows me to keep an eye on my mom even though we live in separate cities. I know to tell her when to charge the device and all sorts of things like that. If she falls I get the alert and they call her to make sure she's okay.

I'm completely happy with it, we don't have a problem with it. I test it on the first of each month and I get an operator and she says everything's fine and verifies the right address and it works fine.

Once when the telephone was disconnected and I had to get back on to guardian and they called right away to make sure everything was okay. The device itself has given me a rash from the necklace.

The quality of the device is excellent. Customer support has been great. I like that I got something I can do to help when I fall. I was playing around the house then it bumped against the loose cabinet and went off and they were quick in responding.

I dislike the size, it would be nice if it had a smaller size. But it's alright and I don't lose it. It lasts a long time, the battery is charged up and lasts a long time. Overall it's worked out well. I've only tested it once and it worked fine. The company called back to check on me.

Nothing bad about it. I like it because it's always there to help me out if I need. Tested it when I first got it and everything was fine. It's adequate for what it does. I've got no complaints.

I like the fact that when I first got the device, it was working properly. And I dislike the fact that it's not working properly now. I've called Medical Guardian numerous times - one of them being yesterday- and the person I spoke with told me that she felt that I needed to call a different number with Medical Guardian and tell them to send a new unit and that the unit I currently have is not operating properly. She gave me a number, which to be perfectly honest I have not called yet, but I plan on calling them and telling them. There were times when I would test it that the call would never go through.

It's very small, so I don't know notice that I'm wearing it. I test it every thirty days and I've had no issues. I wrote and complained online about an issue and they sent me a new one. The only comment I would make on that was they were a little slow to respond but they did respond very positively.

I feel a lot more calm. I have a lot more peace of mind because now I know that my dad has it and if something happens he can get help pretty quickly. It's easy for him to push the buttons.

I had a fall and I used it and they came and got me and took me to the hospital. It was good that they came quite quickly. I feel safer knowing that I'm wearing it so in case I fall or something else happens it's right there very handy for me.

I started with a bracelet, it was very difficult to close and would not stay clapsed. It fell off somewhere and after searching the house it is gone. I'm quite disappointed because I preferred it to the necklace. The necklace is very sensitive and has gone off 2 or 3 times without my pushing the button.

We paid for fall coverage and when my mom fell, we weren't alerted. When I asked about this, I was told that it has to be a really "hard" fall before Med Guardian is notified, so I'm not sure why we are paying for this portion. I also notied that my mom's necklace broke and was told a replacement was on the way and we never received a replacement.

It works good except for receiving a call to the numbers designated. There are so many robot calls and unwanted calls that we do not answer any calls except those in our directory or those recently called. The number calling us with Medical Guardian is not a fixed number you can put in your directory, thus the calls are ignored from Gardian. This can result in emergency coming when a mistake is made by pushing the button. They need a universal number that calls the nominated persons to inform if the alert is activated.

A couple weeks ago I had a really bad fall and they came through and picked me up so I'm happy with it. I would definitely recommend it. I feel comfortable having it on, the wait was not long when I used it after I fell. I was satisfied.

I like the device. I wore it all the time and one time I dropped it very hard and then a lovely young lady's voice said do you need help. I thought that was interesting that even when I just dropped the device I was talking to a lovely young lady.

I wish they would make a device where you could have a base in each room. Otherwise it is kinda hard to communicate. They speak English well and answer questions and email needed information. I like that you have the button to push register on the neck

The customer service that helped me to set up the device was okay. The only time we tested is when we first set it up. We just made a phone call to them to set it up and they activated and said it was active in and refreshable and that was it.

I've not had to use medical Guardian since I got it,but I don't like carrying the monitor with me when I go out. It's too big & cumbersome to hang around the neck & most of the time I can't get the holder to fit on my waist band or pocket It's too tight & I can't get it on & oftentimes I just forget to carry it with me since I have to remove the little black one from around my neck

We have only had our system a little over a month. I feel much more secure that before. The two minor things that bothered me: Having to pay the first whole year up front and during monthly checks, seeming to wait for an operator for a time that would seem eternal in a true emergency.
