I fell on the hard floor between the kitchen and living room. Not breaking anything, but wrenched my right arm. I did not go to the hospital, however; Life Alert stayed on the phone with me until the emergency help came to my home. Life Alert was helpful and kept me calm. That was my first call to Life Alert and I can’t say enough for the Life Alert group.

My mom took a bad fall while going to the bathroom at 4am, and fell asleep on commode. I fell forward and hit my head on the tile floor. I hit the Life Alert button and they immediately were on their way to her because of head trauma. They took her to the hospital. She had a CT scan and blood work. They contacted me at 4:30am. I met mom at the hospital all - tests came back positive. They released mom at 8am. Thank God for Life Alert. I don’t know what we would do without them. Very courteous and helpful.

While picking up a prescription at Walmart I started having trigeminal neuralgia pain in my right side lower face so badly that I could hardly speak. No way that I could drive. I pressed the Life Alert call I carry in my purse. The ambulance arrived and took me to the local hospital, where I was treated for pain as well as electrocardiogram. I was on an IV where they administered pain killer. Thanks, more than I can say. Best gift my son could have given me!

I fell and couldn’t get up. I pushed my button and Life Alert called me on my phone. I take my cordless phone with me at all times, especially to the bathroom. The ambulance and fire truck came to me. The ambulance people came in, checked me out, and I was okay. They checked my heart, oxygen, and lungs. They said if I didn’t feel good later to call. All was very polite and caring.

My blood pressure went to 199. I was sitting in my walker and started to take my dog for a walk. Something I do 2 or 3 times daily. I called my daughter and that’s when it all started. I told her I felt strange and my voice was different. She said press your [Life Alert] necklace and told her I was outside and not near the machine. She said to go in the house and she will call. She did and less than 10 minutes, the ambulance was here. I feel she and you possibly saved my life. Even had my neighbors on set.

I called because I had a very bad nose bleed. I was scared when I saw how heavy the blood poured out of my nostril. The woman who answered my call was very helpful and she kept counting out the minutes when help would arrive. The men were very helpful and did all the usual procedures. They asked if I wanted to go to the hospital. I said no, not if I don’t need to.

Mom fell in May and broke her pelvis. When I called Life Alert, she was experiencing extreme pain in her right leg. I didn’t want to take any chances with a blood clot. The EMT’s arrived quickly and determined it was muscle spasms. All the while, Life Alert was communicating with me and gave me a follow up call after the EMT’s left. Good job Life Alert!

I recently passed out and fell in the garage. When I awoke, I was sitting on the garage floor. I tried to get up, but couldn’t. I then scooted to the car where I could hold on, but failed to get up. I then pushed the Life Alert button. I waited a few minutes and was able to scoot to the garage side door and unlock it. There was a fireman and 2 EMTs. My son came and my daughter was notified. I did not need to go to the hospital. I am very grateful for my Life Alert.

I fell upon getting up in the morning and I couldn’t get up from the floor. My daughter came up and there was no one else to help me get up. She called my Life Alert system and the paramedics was here in 5 minutes. I was not injured. Life Alert stayed on the phone with me until the paramedics left.
