Life Alert for Seniors’ Safety
Based on a statistic, there are more than 37 million seniors in United State and 11 million of them were reported to be fall. If the seniors fall, there would be two probabilities: someone will help them or their life cannot be saved because nobody knows about their condition. Actually, not only fall, seniors must also face various threats when they are living all alone or when we have to leave them to work such as fire, burglar, and many more. Seniors have lower vitality and even some diseases on their body, so it is important for us to monitor them.
It might be very impossible for us to monitor them for 24/7. However, we can use Life Alert to help us monitor the seniors and alert us when the seniors fall. I believe that some of us have applied panic button in a specific room or one touch dial system on the phone. Unfortunately the method will not work effectively. What if the seniors fall suddenly and unable to press or even lift their hand? Panic button or phone will be useless.
For us who have seniors, we will definitely need Life Alert. This alert is completed with motion detector that will alert us when it detects sudden fall motion. Since it uses satellite, it can be worn on the neck or carried in the pocket. For detail information about Life Alert, we can go to Brickhousealert.com.
