My emergency turned out to be nothing (thank goodness), it was a possum or raccoon after some dog food I put on the back porch. But the Life Alert people where on the monitor with me the whole time. It felt good to be in contact with another human being on the monitor and I felt safer. Thank you so much. I love it.

I fell backwards in my kitchen, hit my head on a heavy table leg, and could not move my body - just one hand that was close enough to the Life Alert to push it. They could not hear me due to the distance I was away from the machine. They then called my home phone then my cell phone, since they did not get an answer from me, they then called an ambulance. Life Alert stays on the line until they know that the person is taken care of.

Response time was quick after I’ve taken a fall. They were courteous to me when speaking. If I had a question, they were quick to answer. The operator put me at ease as I waited for emergency help. Thank you, Life Alert.

My son fell off a ladder, and broke his arm and dislocated it; also fractured 3 ribs. I called 911 from my cell phone. No one was picking up, so I called Life Alert. They called an ambulance right away and stayed on the phone to make sure they came. They were very helpful and helped calm me down.

My mother had fallen in her house on Saturday, March 23, 2019, when I was not at her house. The local EMT’s came and checked her out, as did the ambulance, she was okay and did not need transport. The next day on Sunday, I came to her house. She felt that she needed to go to the emergency room at the hospital and didn’t feel that she had enough strength to get in her vehicle. I alerted Life Alert and they notified the emergency response folks and the ambulance. When the folks arrived, the Life Alert person talked with them. Mom was then transported to the hospital.

My mom is on blood thinners for A-Fib, cut her finger deeply on the blades of a blender. She applied pressure but the bleeding persisted. She pressed her Life Alert button and within minutes, EMS was at her door. At the same time every one of us listed on her contact list were notified. Life Alert is truly the best investment in our mom’s safety!

I was babysitting my 2 grandchildren (7+8), we had spent time at the library and had gotten back to my apt. Coming into the apt, through the garage, I lost all function of my right leg. I let myself down to the floor. I dragged myself into the kitchen and tried to pull myself up on a chair. I couldn’t do it. My grandson, (8y/o), was calm (we had practiced about Life Alert). I told him I was going to push the button and someone would get us help. I did and the lady came on. She told us what she would do and not hang up until I was taken care of. EMS was on its way and a family member arrived to take the grandkids (call made by Life Alert). I went to the hospital by ambulance and woke up from a stroke. Without the Life Alert button, I don’t know how I would get help so quick and efficiently. Thank you!

I fell in my bathroom and hit the top of my head and could not get up – I thanked God that I was wearing my Life Alert and pressed it immediately – a woman’s voice assured me that help was on the way and wonderful help it was! They stayed with me for as long as they could on the way to the hospital – very comforting!

My husband has Alzheimer’s and has loss control of his muscles and cannot walk or help me lift him from the couch to the wheelchair. He slipped out of my arms and slid down to the carpet. I called Life Alert and they were here right away. My husband was lifted into his wheelchair in seconds. The Life Alert team was courteous and very nice. I’m so grateful for this service.
