I was looking for something like this. Every other service that I looked at just works inside the house and that was not what I wanted. I've traveled from home; 5 miles away, 25 miles away, and I wanted to have something that could go with me everywhere. Besides, we like visiting my sister, her daughter, and her grandson, who live in Indiana. I wanted something that could work in between here and there. After calling and talking to them, I decided to order it. I wear it from 8 o'clock till 6 o'clock. It's not really all the time, but those are the times when I want to be away from home doing stuff outside. I have a shed behind my home where I do wood trinkets for my wife and I have it with me in case something happens back there. That way I can get help if I need it. I strongly believe in their alarm system. On one occasion I was out clearing out packed down snow that had accumulated outside the house. I was just letting the shovel fall and hit the snow so that it would loosen up. In that time, we got a call from them asking me if I needed help. Apparently the button thought that I had fallen and it notified them of that. The device was pretty touchy and in fact they advised me to wear a slightly longer cord with the necklace so that it wouldn't be as sensitive. It's still pretty easy to set it off, and I'm glad for that. Customer support is right there as quickly as they can and I know they try their best to do that. I think everybody should have something like this, especially because you never know when you might be in a situation where you need to get help ASAP.

I saw it on TV and it all looked pretty good. I talked to one of their sales people and they told me everything I wanted to know. The service has a GPS system which means that I can go anywhere I want to and if I need help all I have to do is push the button. On a regular day I wake up at 7:30 to walk my five small dogs and take them outside. I take the GPS thing with me and the watch when I do that. After that I go, water and feed the chickens, and then come back home to do some chores. After that I just spend the rest of the time at home. Sometimes I'm alone since my husband is a truck driver. Me having the system makes both of us feel better. I have someone there that can take care of me if something bad happens or if I pass out. It's a handy and helpful system. I've enjoyed having it very much. It's also very affordable.

I used to have another company, but it only covered me around my home. I needed it because I had just had a hip replacement surgery and it kept popping out. In the end I had to have a reset surgery to get stabilized. After all that I still wanted to have some assurance and help, but I wanted something that would cover a larger area, so I switched to MobileHelp. They've been really good about answering our questions and getting the unit up here and running well. They helped us set it all up and I'm very happy with it. The devices are very similar to the one I had with the other company. So far though it's just very easy to use and I like the wristbands and the necklace pieces.

I was always falling and my children were concerned about me. They told me I needed to have something that I could carry around with me to call for help. At first I thought I could just carry my phone with me and that that would be enough, but then I fell and didn't have that anywhere near me. After that incident, I just went and got it. I'm going to be 93 soon, so I keep it close in case I need it. I always lay it on a stool or somewhere nearby when I take a shower or when I need to get out of my chair. Customer support is always right there whenever I need them. Even if I press the button by accident, they're always right there for me. I really like it, though I've had to sacrifice a few other things to pay for it. That's ok though, when you need it, you need it.

I checked around and looked at a lot of them and they were the ones that gave me the best features. I also liked that it was good to use all over the United States. I haven't had to use it yet, thank goodness, but I wear it all the time. I accidentally bumped it on the kitchen table while we were eating supper. I got an immediate response from them in my monitor and I assured them that I was ok. From that I knew that it worked and I was pleased with it. Even when I test it, they want to make sure it's a test and that I didn't actually fall. It makes me feel secure. Right now I just wish I had had it when I fell and was on the floor for almost two hours.

I did an internet search for different kinds of alert systems and MobileHelp was the highest rated one that I found. After looking at the resources, equipment, cost, and response that they have, it felt like they had the best system to meet my family's needs. My father is the one that uses it. He has the call button and the one that detects falls automatically. There have been several occasions where he didn't press the button, but an alarm was triggered. Even though it was an accident, MobileHelp still responded and cleared things up pretty quickly. He has also used the button when he falls and the response has been very quick and efficient. Their equipment works 100% effectively. They have always called us within minutes of the alarm going off and there's little delay time between my father needing help and us being contacted. It has done what it's supposed to do so far. I'm 100% satisfied with it. It's also very competitive and affordable.

The brand that I used to have was constantly going out and I was left with no button to push, it just didn't work. I also wanted to have something that I could take with me when I went out, so I got MobileHelp. I haven't had to use it yet and I hope all my falls are behind me at this point. We called them yesterday to test it and they answered quickly and everything. They are on top of it. When you push the button they are right there in a hurry, it was really great. I know it works because of that and because of word of mouth. I know someone from Alabama that comes here, she wears it around her neck, and she has told me it works.

They can cover me 24/7 in any place that I am, that's why I got them. I've set it off by accident 3 times...and I actually just started wearing it a week ago. Customer service is very courteous though. They are very clear and I can understand them easily. They've responded immediately to any accidental alarm. I feel confident having it, especially when I compare it to the one that I had before. That one only covered up to 200 ft from my house. The one thing that bothers me is the base unit that goes next to my bed. At night the white light is very bright and I'd like to know if there's a way to turn it down. It's worth the cost though. It gives me peace of mind and it's also worth it for my family and friends.

The biggest thing when I was making my choice was the fact that it has GPS. I wear it all the time. I'm 85 years old and I live alone in my house. I mean, my granddaughter lives with me, but she works all day and I'm here by myself most of the time. Instead of taking a chance and falling, which I've done a few times, I'd rather have something that could call emergency services without me having to reach a phone. If I go outside I have the GPS so they could come and find me that way. I've only had it for a short time so I haven't had to use it for a medical emergency. I've been setting it off by accident. Those poor people have had four different calls from me in one night, but I guess that means the service works. They get back to me right away and everything is fine.

There were a lot of different things that led me to get this one. One of them was that this one had me covered wherever I went. The other ones I looked at only covered me up to 600 ft away from the base, which wasn't sufficient since I travel a little bit. I needed something that I could count on wherever I was. On top of that the button is even waterproof. I use the necklace when I'm in the house. When I go out, since I use an electric wheelchair, I just put on the wristband since I don't need the fall detection there. Naturally, I always carry out the base unit with me. I've had no difficulty speaking with the people on the phone and everybody has been pleasant and helpful so far. I haven't needed to use it yet, but I feel good having it, especially considering my age and my illnesses.

I don't even remember how we decided to pick it. We had been looking around at different companies and I found this one advertised on the AARP or the AOPA and I decided to give it a try. I haven't had to use it at all yet, I've only had it for two weeks or so, but I wear it. Customer support was very good and helped us with everything when we were getting started. They walked us through opening the box, putting everything together, plugging it into the wall and having it ready to go. They were very pleasant and knowledgeable. It showed that they knew about their product. We've had no problems trusting them and that's a very important thing. They're in the business of helping and saving people who fell or had accidents, that's why they have equipment and people that you can depend on. The equipment alone is no good, no matter what you pay, if the people behind it are no good. Plus anything that can help me get up after I've fallen is worth the money. I don't think I could equate any amount of money to saving my life if I need help.

I went on the internet looking for something like it and MobileHelp just had all the features that I wanted. When it got to me, it made me feel really secure having it. On a typical day I usually just take it with me when I go grocery shopping, run errands, or when I'm taking a shower. If there's an emergency I can use it to talk to them or Tom. That way, I don't have to carry my phone everywhere. I haven't had to use it so far, but there have been a few occasions when it went into emergency mode and they called me. All I have to do when that happens is tell them it was a false alarm. Whenever I call them everybody is very knowledgeable and considerate. Even when I push the button and sound the alarm by accident everyone is kind to me and they explain everything well. It just works very well. Even when the wind here knocks out the power, it all works. I feel secure with it and price-wise it's about the same as other places and they offer about the same things.

I was very pleased when I found MobileHelp. The main reason was that I didn't want anyone kicking down my door to try and get to me if I was really hurt. For that they have a lock that you can put outside your door. That way, emergency services can just get the key and come in. That was really what convinced me in the end. Actually, we just got it some 4 days ago. I've been in the hospital for the past few days because of low blood pressure, so I really haven't had a chance to use it. I have a watch, a little monitor by my bed, and a bigger monitor out in the living room. When I wear the watch, I usually just do that during the day since my husband is at home at night. It's a very fashionable watch. The salesperson that talked to us about that was really helpful. The button also came with clear and concise instructions. They're just a ten out of ten sort of company.

This is the only equipment that I tried and I haven't had any problems with it. It has worked from the day that I took it out of the box. I use it every day. There's not a day that goes by that I don't put it on. I just use the thing that goes around my neck. When I first got it I did a couple of things that activated it. They came on the thing and called me to make sure that I was okay and kept asking me if I was sure. I just told them that it had been an accident. I kind of hate it that they have to keep asking me if I'm ok, they should just take my first 'okay' as the sign that I'm alright. Still, I thought it was really good since they were really concerned about me and making sure that I was actually ok. It all works immediately, all I have to do is push the buttons and in a couple of seconds someone is right there. It's better than what I expected. It does exactly what it's supposed to do. I've been fortunate in that I haven't needed it, but I know that it's there.

At the time we had been using a different service so we didn't really feel like we needed a home security system with a medical alert on it. When the contract for that service expired we just looked around and MobileHelp appeared to be simple to install and use, plus it felt like it would cover our needs. The device was delivered promptly and it was all easy to set up. We've only really had it for about 10 days so we haven't really had a reason to use it. I did drop the pendant by accident once and since it has fall alert the alarm went off immediately. It was simple to delete the alarm and tell them that it had been a mistake and that there was no emergency. Because of that I know it works. We feel like it will meet our needs. Everybody that we've talked to has been helpful.

They were the first company that caught my eye and got me thinking about a service like this. They got good advertising. I haven't had to use it yet, but I've tested it the other day with my son. They called and asked me if I was alright and I just told them it was a test. It worked just fine. If there's ever an actual problem I can just push the button. According to what they said, I should be able to get the service everywhere. No matter where I go or travel to, they can get in touch with me and I can get in touch with them. They can notify the authorities and my three contacts of my location so they'll know what's going on. What I hadn't realized is that the two different pieces that they have can be a bit of an issue. They have different pieces, like the jogger one and the necklace piece that hangs around my neck. I'm happy just with the wrist one, though sometimes I take the necklace one with me on my belt or in a pouch. I haven't gotten a bill from them yet, so I don't know how much it actually costs. I know that my sister uses a different company but I'm happy with mine and she's happy with hers. It's almost like buying a car you know, some people like Chevrolet's some other people got more money and they might want a Cadillac, it just depends.

I used to be with a different company and they just wouldn't stand behind their service and the product they advertised. Their unit was just not working or charging right, so I decided to switch to MobileHelp and give them a try. I've already fallen once and I don't want to just be left lying on the floor. The man that I talked to was very supportive and he reassured me that if anything went wrong they would replace it. The only exception was if I broke it myself of course. I've only tested it so far but it's nice to have the mobile unit. It's exciting to know that I can get help anywhere, especially since I'm still getting over two hip replacements. I love the base unit. The buttons are large and easy to read. It's also nice since it's like it talks to you and it's easy to increase the volume. That's important to me since I'm going to need hearing aids soon. I know that if I need it I have the help available, and that's important to me.

I just looked at many of the companies that offered this service and decided that their deal was the best one so I went with them. I haven't had to use it much, but I feel secure having it around my neck and in the house. The device is good, and it all seems to be a good system. It's logical and it works. My wife passed away a couple of months ago and my family, my children and step children, have all given me a lot of their time. They have been concerned about me and I wanted them to be able to live their own life as much as they could. This gives me the assurance that I'll have the help that I need without bothering them. I think it's wonderful.

I got the system for my parents. The representative that worked with me was very knowledgeable and also had his own parent on the service, that was a big selling point for us. He wasn't pushy or hard on selling but rather more concerned about my parents. I decided to get them the mobile and home units so that they could speak and hear someone no matter where they were in the house. We only really had it for a short time, but during that time they had a power outage, and MobileHelp alerted us so we could go and check on them. They have been very diligent in reporting information to us whenever we had questions. So far it has been excellent and I've already referred them to 3 different people.

I researched it and purchased it for my 84 year old mother. She wears either the wrist watch or the necklace on a daily basis. One time the wrist watch fell off and sent the alert on its own. We received a call from them to make sure that everything was okay. Whenever we've needed to talk to someone they have been there. Most of the time they are the ones that contact us to make sure that there are no problems and, if there are, they will straighten that up. Everything has been working according to the description and it's reasonably priced for what we get. We've been happy with how it all works.

The representative that I talked to was very thorough and knowledgeable. He gave me all the information I needed about the system. That along with the fact that I could have it with me when I traveled away from home convinced me of getting it. I have the extra device that detects falls but fortunately I haven't had to use it yet. I stopped using it a while ago because it would set the alarm off when I hadn't fallen. I still wear the one that goes around my neck and I feel secure having it. My husband also has the wristwatch and it gives us a safety and comfort factor. We can go anywhere and everywhere with it. Price-wise it is a little costly for a senior citizen living on a small income though.

They were the only company that would respond to us and cover this area, especially because we're with U.S. Cellular, and so far it has been the least expensive one. When we were getting it the representative looked up my address and helped me figure out if I had any coverage. After that they didn't even have to send anyone our way to get it installed, I was able to set it up myself. They did helped me check the power and if it worked of course. Even though we haven't had to use it yet, when I pressed the button to test it they responded to me. I'm hoping that when we have a real emergency I will get a good callback, especially since it's the 3rd service of this type that we've tried to use.

I've been with a couple of other companies that I wasn't satisfied with. I mainly wanted one that had a wristwatch, so I called MobileHelp and got 2 wrist bands so that I could wear them with different outfits. So far I haven't had a fall or anything like that, but I do wear it every day. Customer service answers my questions when I call in and they are very good at what they do. They also give you the option of paying quarterly, yearly, or monthly, unlike other companies that only do monthly. I'm personally going with quarterly since I like it better. I'm satisfied and pleased with everything, it has been a good service.

The agent that talked with me was very kind and gave me some great details that made me want to give it a try. When I got the device they walked me through the whole process of setting it up and using it. Since I got it just last month I haven't had to use it yet, but I feel secure just having it and knowing that if something happens I can contact someone immediately. I know I can always get in touch with my relatives and that emergency services can use the key lock to get in and help me. Customer service has just been absolutely wonderful and caring, I was really impressed with the 3 different people I talked to. On top of that, this device is economically good. Every aspect of my experience has been superb.

When I looked online, MobileHelp seemed to meet my needs better than the other companies. Thankfully I've never had to use it, but on a typical day I keep my mobile device on my night stand when I sleep. That way, if I need to get up it's there. I have the wristband, the lanyard, and the pretty little beep that I can wear. If I go anywhere I just pop one of them into my purse pocket and take it with me everywhere. I'm in the habit of doing that now so I just do it automatically. One time when I called customer service to check on my device it took me a while to talk to someone. I'd like them to pick up on that speed, but other than that I'm happy with customer service. The price is also very fair compared to other devices and I pay it once a year. It's very comforting knowing that if I have a problem MobileHelp is there for me.

I saw it advertised on T.V. and had two friends who had recently had a stroke. One of them was out of town at the time and the other one had done of those necklace things, but they were both very active women. I thought that, since I'm a senior citizen and I'm not always with my family, it would be a good idea to have one of those things around. I haven't had to use it yet, but I'm very active and it's better to have it in case I do need it. I know that if I ever had a serious thing happen they will call me immediately. That's because when I was putting the thing in my house I accidentally dropped the thing on my counter top. It registered the fall and set off the alarm. They called me immediately and asked me if I needed help but I just explained that it had been an accident. I was pretty impressed with how quickly they called me. Their prices are also very competitive. I think that every senior citizen should have one of these if they live alone.

I made a comparison between MobileHelp and other manufacturers in the AARP magazine and what convinced me to go with them was that they communicated on the landline. On a typical day, my wife and I go together almost everywhere and we feel protected, but when either of us has to leave the other one can stay at home with the device. We put the neck or wrist piece on and just go about our normal day with it. I haven't needed to use it yet, but it seems to work just the way it was advertised. The functionality is better than anything else I've seen. I do think that the base unit is a bit wild with the red and blue lights on all the time, but other than that it's great.

I liked all the features that they had and since their reputation was good I just went with them. I usually wear the wrist piece every day when I'm home alone and take it off at night. If I need to get up to the bathroom or something I slip it back on in case I fall. I also wear it in the shower. If my family is around, I don't wear it of course. So far I haven't had any problems with them, but I've noticed that I have to be careful with the pendant. If I lean over too fast it thinks that I'm falling and it'll set off an alarm. Otherwise, it's fine, I would rather have it that way than the other way around where it won't detect the fall if I actually need it to.

I liked the variety of services and features that they had, including the fall detection pendant, the mobile pendant, and the GPS one as well. Everything about it, including the setup and the weeks I've had it have been amazing. I haven't had to use it yet, but I was strict on making sure that things worked. I've tested it a number of times and everybody has always been very polite, courteous, and very patient with me. They have always answered my questions and are always available. Sometimes the phone rings a little longer than what I would expect it to, but it's not really something bad. The devices work as advertised. One of them is waterproof and the buttons are very responsive, though sometimes they're too sensitive and I've pushed them by mistake. I also like that it has a 600 foot reach in the home device.

My mother fell not so long ago while my husband and I were grocery shopping. We were just on our way home, and she pressed the button, and they answered immediately. The representatives were excellent! They were ready to send someone over until my husband and I cancelled it. They asked all the questions necessary to make sure that she was okay, and also made sure we checked her out properly before cancelling the call. I would not change anything. I love the feature where she could go out and go to other places without staying at home, that is one of the best things that the other medical alerts do not have.

When I first signed up with mobile Help, I liked the conversation I had with their representative. She explained the whole situation about the device, what it did and didn't do. She also followed up with us, and was informative and nice. Then, when we finally used the service, it was just like dialing 911, except they already knew what was our situation. The first word I can think of when it comes to Mobile Help is relief! Knowing that I'll get help if I ever fall gives me a sense of relief. The only improvement they should make is offer another transistor, this way, I can keep one in my purse and another charging.

After suffering a stroke, I started to look into different medical alert companies. After my research, I decided that Mobile Help had what I wanted, and I spoke to some very knowledgeable and patient people. I spoke to a girl and she had a nice clear voice. Not for being prejudice, but some foreign people are very hard to understand, but I could understand her perfectly. She was able to answer all my questions, I didn't have to ask her to repeat herself, and she even gave me the feeling that Mobile Help was a very good company. There was one time when the devices battery was low, and they came online to notify me, and I just thought that was good! I've been very happy with it.

I needed something for my mom, because she was going to be by herself for a while, as she has Parkinson's and my dad was in longer-term care in the hospital. I was fearful of her falling and not having an opportunity to get help because she was just alone. A friend of my mother recommended it. She has the device and so she recommend that I call that company. I looked across many reviews before making the choice to call that particular company, and everything that I read was accurate- in terms of their customer service, the equipment, the cost. They were very thorough and they also were truthful about the device. When I got the device it was the same as what I've heard, so and everything has worked out very well; excellent in every way. It's the system that is for home and away. Even the customer service was excellent. They just have a high ranking for customer service, in the way that they engage with people, and when it's the elderly you have to be careful of how you engage. At one point my Mom accidentally hit the button that was under her clothing, and they made her feel comfortable about it, despite the fact that it was activated without an emergency. They didn't make her feel bad, so she is confident that somebody is there. You don't always know if somebody is really going to be there unless you have an emergency, so it just happened that it went off and they said "Are you okay?" and she said "Yes, I just push the button," and they told her "Oh that's okay", and that's what you want for your parents. She has felt more comfortable having a device, and she wears it 24/7. She never takes it off which is amazing.

Mobile Help is great! They sent me a little device, about the size of a pager, in case of an emergency. If you ask me about that, I'd say I'm very satisfied with it. I haven't fallen, but they said they're going to check this thing out, because they keep getting a signal that I have fallen. I actually had the police come over once already, and since Mobile Help couldn't get a hold of me or my daughter, they decided to call my son. He called me at 2:30 a.m. to let me know the police was outside worried about my health. That's how I know it works. Besides that, their sales representatives were great! They told me what I wanted to hear

My son-in-law purchased it recently after I saw it in AARP magazine. I had fallen and did not call for help or anything, so my son and my daughter demanded that I have this service. I made myself wear it because they purchased it for me so that's why I wear it now, each day. I appreciate having the one that I can wear on my wrist, and the other one if I fall and can't do anything — it still alerts somebody. I think they were very gracious on the receiver, I'm very pleased so far, I've only had it about 3 weeks, and I'm not a long term customer, but I'm very pleased so far. My son-in-law followed the instructions to set it up, and everything works fine. It was easily described and he was very pleased. I am very satisfied so far.

I fell a couple of times and we thought that it would be perfect for when nobody was home with me or out somewhere, so we purchased both the house monitor and a mobile monitor. I'm very satisfied with the service, they respond almost instantaneously. There's a person over the home monitor or the mobile one if you're carrying it. When we did need it, there were policemen and paramedics in my doorway within 5 to 6 minutes. Their Sales Team did a very complete job in providing us material and what capabilities of the unit was and so forth. It held up to the information that they supplied to us. It doesn't take a college education to operate it either. I give it a 10 out of 10 stars.

It's pretty good for the value. There were a couple of technical issues with aborting an alert where it doesn't recognize my voice when attempting to abort a call to dispatch. Sometimes the red and blue lights blink on the central machine. According to the manual this would indicate a power issue but not sure from what. I can press test or unplug and replug in to get around it.
There was one customer service issue I never saw any action on or heard an update about. I had ordered the product on 3/7 and the next due date is 6/7 from being on the 3 month per payment plan. But the package arrived a week late before I actually activated the system. I was trying to get the due date moved to 6/14 for that reason.
First I tried sending a message through the app about this but heard nothing back. Then I spoke to someone who told me they put in a request and eventually I would see the due date change on the app. This hasn't happened though.

I'm absolutely grateful that I got the device! Several weeks after purchase, I had a low blood pressure spell. I couldn't see clearly, couldn't dial my phone, but I could easily press my button and summon help. I'm not getting anything for leaving this review, I'm an actual customer.
I also like that I can use it to summon help outside my house. I haven't had to yet and hopefully never will. This necklace gives me and my friends peace of mind that I can always get the help I need.

Sensitive motion detector. Really clear transmission so I could hear them calling me to ask if I was ok. I was in the bedroom and the GPS was in the dining room and I could understand what the agent was saying. I had not fallen but bumped my button and sent vibes saying that possible fall. I contacted them via GPs and told them to clear that it was a false alarm.

Have used my fall alert once right after l received my equipment. Worked fine but wait to get to an operator was a little long in my opinion. Cannot tell you how long it was because l didn’t time it. I know when one has fallen and needs help getting up, it seems like a long time. Have has several “ fall alerts” when placing unit on my neck but did the cancel alert.

I purchased the Mobile help Alert DUO System for my 88 year old mother living independently after she fell and fractured a hip. Everytime I tested the system the service was instantly. The operators were just as concerned as myself and always nice even after a few False Alarms.
I reccommend this system to anyone. And mom will always be using the system.

My Mother loves her necklace. She puts it on first thing in the morning and takes it off to charge when she gets in bed. She told me that she feels safer because help is just a button away, no matter where she is, since she has the GPS and the Fall Alert. I don’t have to worry about her falling and her husband not realizing she needs help.
We have only been a customer for a month, but so far I am very impressed.
Please send another review after an Emergency. Hopefully there will not be one.

I bought the button for my elderly mother. The positive is that she feels much safer with it on, especially if I leave for a few hours. The negative is that too often it’s much too sensitive (gently setting it down sometimes sets it off). Other times it doesn’t go off when expected…was accidentally dropped on the hard tile floor and did not go off. For that reason, I’m a little nervous having my mom wear it when I’m not around (eyesight and hearing are not that good). I do like the fact that if it does activate, we have time to cancel the call. I also like that she can take it with her if she stays somewhere else.
Overall, it’s a good product and gives us peace of mind

I felt much safer since getting MobileHelp. I’ve had. Three-week attack of Diverticulitis, a very bad cold, and an infected leg since my sweet husband passed away in December. Since I am now alone, I was extremely worried I would get locked in one of our dog kennels and wouldn’t have my phone, or fall and not be able to get up, etc. Now, I remember to have my “locket” on, and do what has to be done anywhere in the house! It has given me a wonderful sense of freedom!

My husband fell Sunday night and I received a phone call immediately alerting me a fall had been detected. Fortunately, his fall did not require medical assistance and we worked together to help him up. I feel much more secure and reassured his falls will be detected and if medical attention is necessary the appropriate actions will be taken quickly. I usually hear when he falls, however I was sleeping and wasn't aware that he had fallen. I feel much safer since we are using Mobile Help. Thanks for your quality devices and equipment.

Having MobileHelp causes me to feel safe as I go along my day. I have set the alarm off more than once by mistake and was treated so well by the Helper. I did find the directions to be a bet confusing. However, one of my sons took a photo of each appliance and then wrote a clear, concise description of how to use it. That did the trick for me, I the directions right where I need them. I now know that I am getting the best help for being safe. I will be 93 in May and I stay active inside and outside my home feeling safe with every step.

The ordering process was ultra-simple, with a rep that knew everything I asked.
The unit itself arrived quickly and just as described. It even comes with a doorknob placard to put on the door so you don't forget it when you go out and about. My favorite part is that the unit operates on cell phone towers, so no matter where you are, you can press a button for an assist. We had a problem with the lanyard, and another was send with no hesitation. Excellent experience with an excellent product.

I’m 78 yrs young and live alone. I had a stroke 8 years ago and have fallen numerous times, breaking my weak left foot twice. I FINALLY decided to get MobileHelp after my last fall last Nov. MobileHelp had the best reviews so I decided to purchase it. It’s the best decision I made and don’t have to worry should I fall or need help in the future. I like the fact that they have all emergency numbers, family and friends’ phone numbers stored plus the GPS can find me anywhere in the U.S. and Hawaii.

I got this product for my wife going through chemotherapy. Fortunately she has fallen, but it has been dropped several times. The automatic response has very quick. I can’t rate the company trustworthiness, the product is good, the response time is quick. I have no idea about the company. I bought a 6 month contract w/ the fall detection.
