Medical Alert Devices

Call for help in any emergency, large or small, with a medical alert device. These systems are a type of assistive technology that triggers alerts to first-responders, caretakers and family members or friends. A simple press of a button on a medical alert device sends for immediate help. Each device has both a console and a button (usually wearable in the form of a necklace/pendant, bracelet/wristband or a pendant that can be clipped on a belt). The purpose is that if an emergency occurs away from the console, someone can still make an emergency call at any time. The console connects the caller to a trained operator who can assist with the emergency or illness. Medical alert systems are generally easy to use and can be set up without the help of a tech professional, and they include all of the components necessary for setup – no additional software or devices needed.

Medical alert devices are typically made in the style of a necklace or pendant, bracelet or wristband, or a small device that can be clipped on a belt or pant loop. With many types of medical or fall alert devices, you’ll want one that is comfortable. Do you have sensitive skin? Do you rarely wear a belt? Will a necklace make it difficult for you to cook or do other tasks around the house? Consider your body and lifestyle when selecting the style of medical alert device that’s best for you. The 24/7 monitoring of a medical alert device means someone is always available to take an emergency call. You’ll have peace of mind knowing Best Buy’s family care products have your family’s best interest at heart.
