THE NEED FOR FREEDOM

Medical alarm systems are proven life savers especially for the elderly, for those who are handicapped, or for those with a chronic medical condition.

A senior medical alarm is designed to provide immediate emergency response to the elderly, in light of the normal health complications that go with aging. However, a senior medical alarm can be used by anyone and is not just limited to those who are advanced in years.

The concept of personal medical alarms came about in acknowledgement of people’s needs to be independent and live full lives in spite of old age or illness. Having a senior medical alarm gives you the freedom to live on your own and pursue your interests while being assured of immediate emergency help should there be a need for one.

SIMPLE GENIUS

The genius of senior medical alarm systems is in its simplicity. The main alerting device can be worn at all times without hindering or obstructing movement. Most of the senior medical alarm units are designed as watches, bracelets or pendants that are water proof and shock proof to withstand daily and extended use.

Because personal medical alarm systems are designed to be worn at all times, it is important that these electronic devices be sturdy. Of course, it goes without saying that no matter how strong and tough the unit is built, they are only as effective as their batteries are. Most of the medical alarm systems have batteries that last for some years, and there are some that are rechargeable.

However, you should never be complacent, make sure to always check if all the components of your senior medical alarm is working as they should. After all, an emergency response unit will not be dispatched if an emergency notification signal has not been sent out in the first place.
