Medical Alert Systems for Help in Seconds

Why medical alert systems matter

Approximately 36 million falls are reported among older adults in the U.S. each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A fall or another life-altering medical emergency can occur at a moment's notice, which is why assistive devices like medical alert systems are so valuable.

They are a good fit for seniors who live alone, people with health conditions, and families who want peace of mind for a parent or grandparent.

How it works

1. Press the button. The wearable button connects the user to a monitoring center representative within seconds.
2. Confirm help is needed. The representative speaks with the user to understand what is happening.
3. The plan kicks in. The emergency plan chosen at setup takes over, which may include contacting emergency services, a neighbor or a family member.

Part of a safer home

Medical alert works alongside your security system and monitored smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and a smart lock can let responders or family in without breaking down a door. Read our guide to medical alert systems for Arizona seniors.
