On my one and only experience with a fall, they were prompt and helpful although I didn't need hospitalization or any medical attention. Only needed a hand getting up.

Whenever I pushed my button you immediately called my daughter and she was there. It’s reassuring knowing there is always someone there to respond
The response was excellent and worked perfectly. Medical Alert also gave the correct door passcode to the fire dept., but unfortunately the fire dept. was not the first on the scene, it was the paramedics, and they did not have the code so they could not get in. If there was a way for the door passcode to be given to ALL first responders, that would be ideal.
CHEAPLY MADE USELESS BRACELETS MADE TO STAY ON WRISTS FOR 60 SECONDS--IF LUCKY!!!!
Questioned alarms when device called .
It has done what was needed. Monitoring has been helpful.
Called my daughter when needed.
Its good to know theres a relief of a squeeze away
What I dislike is the fact that you charged me $10 a month via my credit card for “protection” when I did not ask for it nor consent to being charged for it !
Went off once when I don’t think i touched it
Prompt response. Got me to hospital in an efficient manner. Very pleased.
Great service
The fast response of the fire department was a blessing. I was on the floor and couldn't get up.
Tech`s were very helpful assisting me, as i am in a wheelchair
When I was feeling pains in my chest, I thought I'd better get checked out at the hospital. I used my button to call Medical Alert and they sent the ambulance (and fire department) who were very helpful and got me to the hospital immediately. All tests proved nothing wrong with my heart.
responded quickly. and had ambulance here very timely
Response time was great and I was treated well.
You have always been there for me right away after a call. You Always contact my daughter (she likes that). You Always call and check on me after situation is resolved. to make sure I'm OK. BUT GOT CALL ABOUT DEAD BATTERY MONTHS AGO- Couldn't get response when called number. I don't know if it was battery in pendant or backup in base. I don't wear pendant at home, which is always, and my husband is always w/ me. He is the one the who always pushs button on the base when I've fallen. NOW, WHICH BATTERY IS DEAD AND HOW DO I REPLACE IT. AND WHAT IS THE CORRECT PHONE NUMBER TO CONTACT YOU.
Thank God I have been well, accidentally alarm goes off and your staff is really nice and very efficient
Only had to use it once, however knowing it worked gave me a piece of mind.
