Life Alert Reviews

My mother fell backwards and cut her head. As usual, she pushed her Life Alert button and they immediately answered and sent help. Life Alert has helped my mother several times in the last four years and I am very thankful.

I was vomiting a lot and could not stop. Life Alert answered fast and acted quickly, getting the EMTs to my house immediately. Life Alert also contacted my family and friends to ensure they knew I had a medical emergency. Excellent service.

I tripped and fell. I couldn’t get up due to weakness in my muscles. Life Alert got help for me and within minutes, police and EMS were summoned and my vitals were taken. I was okay and Life Alert personnel left after I was fully rested.

I was out to the grocery store and a storm came and three trees were blocking the road and I couldn’t get home. Life Alert called and told me they were alerted that my mom’s oxygen was off. Life Alert sent ambulance with oxygen. I was very pleased with the service I received. Thank you.

I fell and broke my arm—fractured my cheek bone, bruised my ribs. I pressed my Life Alert and EMTs were here very soon. They took excellent care of me. My head is still a little fuzzy but I know Life Alert treated me well. Wonderful young man.

I had fainted in the kitchen, fell on the floor and broken my nose, cut it and cut my lip, causing a lot of bleeding. Life Alert was very courteous when I pushed my Life Alert pendant, EMTs came in about ten minutes and took me to the hospital. My thanks to Life Alert for such professional treatment.

After pressing my Life Alert pendant, they responded and the operator said she would stay with me until the EMTs/security staff were here. She did. This was comforting in the brief time I had to wait.

I was helped with my call to Life Alert on my pendant. Life Alert stayed on the line with me until the emergency crew arrived and transported me to the hospital. It was a urinary tract infection. I was treated and transported home by a family member. Thank you!

My sister fell in the house and we called Life Alert. As usual, the Life Alert person answering the call was very professional and helpful. Life Alert alerted the police and ambulance crew and they responded very quickly. The Life Alert stayed on the line the entire time. We have used Life Alert several times and always had a wonderful response.

My husband was unable to get up and dress himself. I was having trouble with vertigo and he called me to help him up. I jumped up too fast and fell in the floor in the hallway. I could not get up. Pushed Life Alert. In minutes, four large firemen were there. They put me in bed and helped me get dressed. Life Alert called our daughter. Thank God for Life Alert.

I had tried to go to the bathroom several times. I have had both knees replaced in the last eight months and they do not work so well due to the complexity of surgery. I was sitting on my bed and tried several times to get up but my knees would not hold me up. As the situation got more extremely urgent, I thought I better call Life Alert or else. The Life Alert representative was very helpful and stayed on the line until the medical folks showed up. After Life Alert got off, they alerted my husband and daughter; very helpful.

At two o’clock in the morning, I fell by the bedside after a bathroom visit. Unable to get up, I called Life Alert--they answered immediately, stayed with me, assured me that someone was on the way and shortly after, two accommodating police officers were here with me. In no time, I was off the floor and back in bed, safe and sound--no injuries, no problems.

My husband needed an ambulance to get him to the hospital. We could not get him into the car. I just hit the Life Alert button and Life Alert got the ambulance. My husband’s son and daughter in-law who live in another city were also alerted. All went well.

I foolishly tried to get into my friend’s van on the driveway that was partially ice covered. As I grabbed the handle to lift myself in, my foot hit slippery ice and I could not lift myself with one arm. As we were outside, I didn’t know if Life Alert would hear my call but I pushed the button. My friend called 911 and we had help in a few minutes. Since I didn’t need more help than a lift to stand up, EMTs gave me time to put on dry clothes (sitting on ice is most uncomfortable). They finished their work and left.

I tripped over off a stool while putting on my shoes. I couldn’t get up because of weakness and bad knees. I called Life Alert and EMTs were here in about 10 minutes. They were very polite and attentive. They got me on my feet and I was fine. I was not hurt. I did not need medical help.

I fell and couldn’t get up. Called my daughter, she didn’t answer. Pushed my Life Alert necklace, they picked up and tried to get a hold of my other contact, who also had a key to let the paramedics in. Life Alert informed that help was on the way. I was able to scoot to the door to unlock it. Response was quick. Thank you, I wasn’t injured. EMTs got me off of the floor. Everything very smoothly.

My mom had a UTI which made her very confused and unable to respond to cues in order to mobilize her. Life Alert was called at which time the fire department and paramedics were summoned. My mom was transported to the hospital. Excellent service.

I am an eleven-year colon cancer survivor. I had both knees and left hip replaced, heart patient and arthritis, and high blood pressure. On March 1, 2017, I wasn't feeling well. I was sitting in the living room and decided to go to the bedroom and lay down for a while. I never made it. I passed out, I don't know for how long. When I did recover, I dialed my Life Alert button and that was all I needed. Life Alert was a life saver, right on time. Thanks!

My mom had to go to the emergency room about three weeks ago. She was short of breath and was really sick with it, and weak. Life Alert person that helped was very helpful, in that I was trying to get mom to talk to me and she advised me not to do much of that since she was out of breath. After arriving at the hospital, they began tests on her heart and found that she had a heart attack. Upon running tests, she had to have three stents put in. She’s back home now and she is gaining her strength back. Thank you.

I am answering on behalf of my mother. She fell in her bathroom on this particular emergency. She pushed her Life Alert necklace button right away. They were unable to hear her from her box (located in the living room) and dispatched EMS, then called me and my sister right away. Her injuries were extensive, fractured hip, pelvis and back. Due to Life Alert, we were able to respond immediately and minimize her pain and fear. She is doing very well in rehab and we expect her home within the next four weeks. I can’t encourage people enough to get this Life Alert service for their loved ones. Life Alert has been a life saver on several occasions. Best investment ever.

Life Alert helped me. I was able to push the Life Alert button. The woman on the other end was excellent. She kept getting back with me every five minutes until EMTs arrived. Thank you very, very much.

I’ve been having problems with my lower back and was having to hold on to my left thigh. A few days later, I had this bruise from my groin to my knee. Life Alert sent EMTs and sent me to the hospital.

It's hard and stressful enough when your elderly frail parent has multiple falls and vertebrae fractures. Then, to deal with a rude and unprofessional company like Life Alert just compounds the problem. My sister researched this company a year ago. The salesman was very smooth, polite, patient, answered all her questions. After we signed up, they kept calling us over and over again, asking for the same information. What really raised a red flag for me, was I very carefully gave them her credit card info over the phone, and they repeated it back to me. Several days later, they called again asking to verify the credit card info!!! They started installing equipment in her home before we even had a chance to review the contract. They didn't inform her in advance of the delivery date for the equipment. My mother disagreed with some terms in the contract.

I fell and could not get up. The ambulance came and helped me up. I did not break anything. Life Alert came on and stayed with me awhile to make sure I was alright. I fall a lot. Thank you so much for being there for me!

I fell in my kitchen at 12 a.m. Life Alert responded. I pressed my Life Alert button immediately when I saw all the blood on the floor. My glasses didn’t break, but caused the need for eleven stitches. Good work. I had my first asthma attack recently and Life Alert was there for me. It was so frightening.

I caught my foot under a throw rug while trying to turn a light switch on during the dark. I couldn’t get up so I pressed my Life Alert button. Life Alert called my neighbor who had a house key and the ambulance came.

My husband fell in the kitchen and hit his head on the stove. I could not lift him. The EMTs came promptly and thoroughly checked him all over. I appreciate the promptness and concern showed to us, specially the Life Alert person who answered our call.

My mother fell in middle of the night and broke her shoulder. Life Alert contacted EMS and family immediately. Life Alert stayed on the phone with her until EMS arrived. Life Alert is so good about contacting everyone and with follow-up calls as well. I would recommend this to everyone.

I am handicapped, unable to get up from the floor using a walker. I got out of bed (never done that before) on to floor, crashed into small table, and trash basket. Phone too high to reach, pressed Life Alert unable to hear clearly but they heard me and the woman who answered was my angel. I could hear her enough to answer questions. I told her I needed fire department to help me up. Life Alert checked with me every few minutes. The fire department arrived then helped me up. Thanks to the Life Alert "angel," she's the best!!

My husband fell when he returned from going to the bathroom and there was no one at home to help him get back on bed. Wife was not certain of his physical condition immediately. When assistance arrived from Life Alert, the staff was very helpful in taking care of his needs and responded accordingly.

I slipped off to the floor. I could not get up as my arm hurt so much. I pressed the Life Alert button on my chain around my neck and in no time, the paramedics were here and lifted me up to a glider chair. Paramedics checked my finger to see if I had any feeling. I did not want to go to the hospital.

My mom fell. She pushed her Life Alert button, but was unable to hear or speak with them. Life Alert dispatched EMT out to my mom’s house. I do not know how her fall would have turned out if she did not have her Life Alert button. Thank you so much for being there for her. What a blessing this Life Alert company (and all the employees!) is. Thanks!

I am very happy with Life Alert's service and security. We feel safe having this Life Alert service. I was at the mall, my husband waited in the car with air machine plugged into cigarette lighter out, turned car off, and battery drained. Life Alert sent service to jump car. Second time, there was a power outage for four hours. Batteries for air machine were running out. Life Alert came in within minutes, stayed until we could find a place to recharge his air machine. Then Life Alert called back to make sure all was ok.

After coming home from the hospital that day at 3:00, she became sick. She passed out on the bedroom floor. I pressed her Life Alert wrist band and in minutes, someone answered and asked if it was an emergency. The ambulance was there in probably 7 minutes. The Life Alert person said to EMTs, "Are you ready to take her information?" Life Alert had all the information. Thank you so much. I hope we never have to use Life Alert again. But thank God Life Alert people were there. She had a heart attack; her heart rate was 30, she's 88 years old, got a pacemaker going strong.

I got out of the car and I had my cane. I shut the door and for some reason, I fell. I sat on the asphalt for 10-15 minutes and no one stopped to help, so I pushed the Life Alert little red button. EMTs were just there and helped me up and into the house where they got my walker. I wasn't hurt except skinned elbow. About two hours later, I had to call Life Alert again. I used the bathroom and had my walker with me. I stood up and was pulling up my clothes when my legs just gave out and I went to the floor on my knees. I couldn't get up, I was weak. I pushed the Life Alert button and EMTs were right there. One of them took hold of my hands and pulled me up. I appreciate them all.

I had a bad cough (due to paralyzed vocal cord). Every time I coughed really hard, I had a terrible pain under my left breast. Life Alert answered immediately and help was here in less than fifteen minutes. At the hospital, they took a chest CT scan and belly CT scan. The cough was so bad it irritated my stomach and they gave me a pain pill. I was sent home the next day.

I was feeling unsure about if I should contact Life Alert. I didn't know if it was a situation that called for such action. The Life Alert person who answered my call put me at ease. When the paramedics came, they felt I should be transported. The Life Alert person contacted my daughter as well and I had her take me to the emergency room. The whole situation put me at ease about calling if needed in the future.

I experienced a blood pressure emergency at approximately 9pm. Life Alert dispatched an ambulance for emergency transport to nearby emergency clinic. Response was prompt and efficient. After treatment, I was able to return home.

I am 89 years old and I walk with a walker. On this day, I had a towel and put it on walker handle and it slipped off, causing the walker wheels to get tangled up. This threw my balance and caused my fall, I couldn't get up and I just pushed the Life Alert button and had help right away. But this taught me a good lesson to not put anything but myself on the walker.

When I stood up from my chair. I threw my blanket across my lap but didn't get my feet loose so when I took a step, my feet caught and I fell to the floor. Very hard. I didn't hit anything but the floor. My cellphone was on the charger in the kitchen and my home phone by the chair. I pushed the Life Alert pendant and got help.

When I realized that I had to hit the Life Alert button, my heart dropped and pounded with anxiety. When Life Alert spoke to me and then EMTs arrived, I was so grateful that we had this service. Everything about Life Alert's service is one word to me--"Awesome."

My mother fell and broke her arm. She used her Life Alert button. An ambulance was dispatched and notification were made to the family. Life Alert contacted family after transport to advise us what hospital and the extent of injuries. Very well done! Thank you!

My sister thought she had another stroke and called Life Alert. I was away from home and was called by Life Alert. I was there within five minutes. Everything turned out okay. Her symptoms were the same as past strokes so she called Life Alert. Thank you so very much.

My dad needed assistance after falling. Thanks to Life Alert, he had emergency assistance faster than my family member could have responded. Life Alert keeps dad safe and secure while living home alone. Great peace of mind for me (his daughter).

Mom fell when getting out of bed and fractured ribs. Life Alert notified EMTs and called my home number to notify me. The Life Alert response was very quick and mom was in the ambulance before I was able to drive to her house (less than ten minutes). Service was excellent!

I fell while getting out of bed. My knees have been operated on. Left one, replaced; right one, replaced twice. Left knee has metal ball in it, cannot bend them. I would suffer if they were bent or knelt down; possibly injuring myself. I skimmed to the front door (quite a distance in my home) and unlocked it. The attendants came in and checked me out. They were very kind and courteous.

My mother fell. She is 92 years old and tripped and injured her neck and shoulder. She was able to push her Life Alert pendant to call for help. Life Alert dispatchers had emergency units here in 10 minutes! I was called out at work and was able to meet them at the hospital. Thank you, Life Alert.

My father fell and was in an terrible amount of pain. I called Life Alert, they responded quickly, sent an ambulance, and took my dad to the nearest hospital. They were very prominent. Thank God we all have the Life Alert system. He had two broken ribs from that fall, but is healing nicely.

I fell against a concrete arch-door frame, cut and bruised my right arm about two inches from my wrist on top of my arm. Skin was torn about two inches. It has been four weeks and I still have healing skin. Life Alert was great--there was no way I could stop the bleeding and bandage it with my left hand. I will be happy to tell anyone about Life Alert who will listen.

Life Alert is so good to have. Help at the push of a button. I fell in the bathroom and hit my head on the bathtub. I couldn't get up. So, I pushed my Life Alert button. They were very nice and polite. They said help was on the way and a few minutes later, the ambulance was here. They took me to the hospital. I was x-rayed and checked out. Nothing showed up. I was so glad I have Life Alert. It could have been worse. Thank you very much.

I was in my pajamas and robe in the family room watching TV. I was on my way to the bathroom when I tripped by my cane. I am 86 and in poor health, so when I went down I couldn't get up. I used my Life Alert pendant to call you. Life Alert was going to call my grandson, but I told them not to, as I had my cellphone in my pocket and they weren't answering. The paramedics were here in 15 minutes to help me up and take my vitals. Life Alert talked to me all the time and then the paramedics came. I had a mild concussion, cracked ribs on back, and a bad bruise on my knee (replaced 10 years ago). I went down backwards and couldn't brace myself. I am good now from those injuries. Thank you.

I could not get out of bed. My chest felt constricted, couldn't speak. My parents pressed my Life Alert button on my home system. I do not remember how long they took for first responders to arrive. All I remember was waking up in an ambulance. Clearly, like the woman in the Life Alert commercial said, "If it weren't for Life Alert, I wouldn't be sitting here today." Thank you so much. Just like in the past, two or three occasions, I look forward to using the Life Alert system again.

I have multiple sclerosis and I was in the bedroom on my scooter. I went to get off and lost my balance and fell and rammed my shoulder into my wooden dresser. My husband was outside and couldn't hear my yelling. I couldn't get up, in fact, I could hardly move. I hit my Life Alert button for you guys and you took care of everything. After Life Alert called EMS, my husband came in but he couldn't get me up because he's got COPD and could hardly breathe. Thank you for what you do.

I had fallen and did not have the strength to pull myself up from the floor. Life Alert person on the phone called the fire department for me and stayed with me until someone arrived and helped me and made sure I was okay. Thank you for Life Alert’s help in my time of need.

My nebulizer broke in the middle of the night that I use for asthma and COPD. I couldn't breathe so I called my Life Alert and EMTs arrived in a matter of minutes. The breathing treatment team later told me that I had turned blue. I am sure that I might have died if I hadn’t received prompt response.

I live alone on a private road only five homes including mine. Recently, I was on my way out to a late afternoon doctor’s appointment and my house is at the top of the road and there is no through road. There were two huge trees down at the bottom of the road blocking my way out so I called Life Alert. They called the fire department and stayed on the line with me until they arrived, then called back a little later to see if they had cleared the way out. God Bless the fire department and God Bless Life Alert. I am so glad I have it.

My mother (92 years old) was at home alone when she got dizzy and slumped down from a standing position. She pressed her Life Alert button and got an immediate response. She had to crawl a short distance to pull herself up to get to a phone. Relatives and medics who were also alerted were able to assist her to get medical attention.

I had gotten up to answer my front door, somehow I lost my balance and fell. I cannot get up by myself, so I pushed my Life Alert button and I got help here in just a few minutes. I have just moved alone and my son insist I have it and I’m so glad that I do.

Life Alert is prompt to answer our alert. Life Alert directed ambulance to mom’s home, contacted everyone on the list regarding her trip to the hospital, stayed on the phone with the caregiver until she was safely in EMTs care, and kept us calm and reassured that my mom was comfortable and in good hands. Thank you, Life Alert!

I am her daughter. Mom slipped out of her wheelchair and couldn’t get back up so she pressed her Life Alert necklace and told the dispatcher she wasn’t hurt, just couldn’t get up to get back in her wheelchair. The Life Alert dispatcher sent the paramedics to lift her back into her chair. Mom said the Life Alert dispatcher was very nice and talked to her while dispatching the paramedics. She is 92 and said the cutest paramedics came to help her and checked to make sure she was alright. Life Alert is the best investment I’ve ever made for my mom. Thank you so much.

I was trimming the bushes in front of my condo. Ant beds got on my feet and legs. I was trying to get them off while still trimming lantana bushes. Next thing I know, I’ve fallen flat on my back and couldn’t get up. I used my rear-end to scoot inside front door. I had called Life Alert. When I fall, I cannot get up by myself. The medics came and got me up. This is not the first time I needed Life Alert to get up.

I have a broken ankle. I was in the kitchen to get some water from fridge. I also had a boot on my foot. I had a walker to help walk. I thought I couldn't get the water. I stood to the side of the walker. I fell on the floor. I pushed my Life Alert button, they came on very fast. Life Alert calmed me down until help came. Life Alert called me later to see how I was. Thank you, I am a new customer.

My mother, who is 92, fell in her bedroom. Life Alert was summoned, medical personnel arrived and assessed her condition. Fortunately, mom had just a bruise on her arm, no broken bones. Life Alert, for my family, is one of the most important parts of keeping my mom safe! Thank you, thank you so very much.

My husband was unable to get up from the bed despite his efforts and my holding the walker for him to pull-up. After many unsuccessful attempts, I called Life Alert and EMS responders promptly arrived and assisted him onto the stretcher and to the ambulance for transport to the hospital.

My father felt he was having a heart attack. Life Alert was called. Help was summoned. They called family members within formation and called back for updates and then called back after my father was home to check on him. Luckily, everything was fine. I'm so glad we got this Life Alert service for him.

My mom fell out of her lift chair twice. Both times, she activated her Life Alert and they were prompt in responding and getting her help. I also appreciate the calls and updates letting me know what happened. Life Alert is a blessing to us and gives us peace of mind. Thank you.

I fell in the bathroom and they took me to the hospital. I had a very extra-large bump on my forehead. I am very impressed with Life Alert. They were quick to send the fire department to help me. Thank you.

Mom became ill and we called Life Alert. EMTs arrived less than 10 minutes; assessed her and transported her to the hospital. The paramedics were very professional and courteous. I truly love this Life Alert service and thank you so much for your professional services.

I got up with my walker to go to the bathroom. For some reason, the walker caught on something and fell over and knocked me over on the right side and I fell onto my right leg. The femur cracked. I could not get up or awaken my family. So, I pressed my Life Alert and was answered quickly. An ambulance arrived, and took me to the hospital.

I was waking up in the morning. My head thumping so fast. I tried to get up to go into the kitchen. I got so dizzy, felt nauseous and broke out in a cold sweat. I almost fell over a chair. I was trying to pull up my left arm, and when I finally did, that is when I realized I better call Life Alert. They responded right away.

I fell and was unable to get up. My Life Alert button was pushed for the first time. It was answered in less than a minute. I was not near the base but I yelled help. They responded that help was on the way. Before help arrived, the three people to be called arrived and waited with me until the ambulance arrived to transport me to the hospital. Thank you for your excellent response.

I asked Life Alert to resend an ambulance to my mother's house after she refused to go to the hospital and the ambulance turned around and went back to my mother's house. Life Alert contacts me each and every time my mother contacts them. I wouldn’t trade Life Alert for anything in the world. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my mother.

I went to visit my friend and I found her unable to speak clearly and we called Life Alert. EMTs were at her house within 10 minutes. I went to the emergency room with her and stayed with her for several hours. I would gladly recommend Life Alert to anyone and I do from time to time.

I fell and couldn't get up and was all alone. Life Alert asked me if I was hurt or if I needed ambulance. Life Alert kept telling me that help was on the way and asked what part of the house I was in and if any doors were locked. Life Alert kept talking to me all the time. They were getting me help. It wasn't very long before help was there.

My father lives alone and he fell in the house. He pressed his Life Alert pendant and Life Alert called myself and my sister who are on the call list. The ambulance arrived and he was taken to the hospital. Life Alert notified us each step of the way--which was great since it took me some time to get to the hospital.

I fell on my concrete floor when getting groceries out of my car. I had severe pain in left hip when I tried to move or get up. I couldn't get up. I pushed my Life Alert button but couldn’t hear the response because I was outside. In a short time, an ambulance came and took me to the hospital. Life Alert had notified my daughters and they were at the hospital at almost the time the ambulance arrived. I had a fractured right hip.

I fell loudly to the floor--not hurt but I couldn't get up off the floor. I pushed my Life Alert button and a woman's voice came then asked me what happened. Life Alert immediately called the rescue squad. Then, Life Alert answered me that she’d stay on the line with me which she did! It was reassuring to have someone with me. She kept track of how long before the squad would arrive and helped direct them. When EMTs got there, she waited on line for them to assess me. Then EMTs offered, if needed, medical records on me. Life Alert said she’d get back to me once they left, which she was good to her words. She asked if I was okay. I said yes and we signed off. The rescue squad were wonderful too! Thank God for such a caring person on line and most wonderful service!

My mother fell and couldn't get up. She used her Life Alert to call for help. The Life Alert coordinator spoke with her, sent EMS and contacted us. We live 3000 miles away. She was transported to the emergency room. Without Life Alert, who knows how long she would have been there alone. Thank you.

I never had an incident but have talked to them when checking the machine and they have been wonderful. During a hurricane, I pushed Life Alert button because I am alone and couldn't get any shutters closed in my condo. Life Alert sent a call out and two police men showed up at my door at midnight and closed all the shutters and locked them down. Thank you. Life Alert also called back to see that I was alright. I am 78 years old and have nobody. I am a widow. Thank you.

I fell in the garage. Thank goodness, I left the back door open. I was able to sit up. Pushed the button, Life Alert responded. I was able to talk to the Life Alert operator, explaining situation. Within a few minutes, fire department arrived and picked me up.

One morning, my heart rate was very slow (in the low 40's); it dropped to 39. I alerted my pendant, Life Alert responded to my call within 30 seconds. Life Alert dispatched paramedics and ambulance. Life Alert maintained telephone contact until after paramedics arrived.

We thought client was having a stroke, so called Life Alert. Life Alert responded promptly and paramedics arrived rapidly. She made it to the hospital and was given excellent care. She is doing well now and we appreciate that Life Alert came through when she really needed it.

I fell in my kitchen. Because of Life Alert, I am alive today. I smashed my head into my stove, from temple to temple. I was cut and bleeding. I lost about 1 ½ liters of blood. Only the Lord, the EMT, and my Life Alert saved my life. I was transported to the trauma center by helicopter. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

If I had not had Life Alert there is no telling how long I would have laid there, because I could not get up by myself. I just want to thank the great men that got me up. Thanks also to my son who got this Life Alert for me.

My mom fell and broke her leg. I was called right away. I’m lucky that I live down the street. The Life Alert lady was great. Got the message loud and clear. She told me police and paramedics were on the way, and that was 11:30 at night. If Life Alert hadn’t called, I may not have found out until later the next day.

He had fallen and couldn't get up. Used his Life Alert button; when Life Alert did not get a prompt response from any of the family, they properly called 911. Ambulance soon arrived, picked him up, assessed him, determined hospitalization unnecessary and left him with caregiver.

Thank you for being there! I was having trouble with blood pressure and heart beating very rapidly--short of breath. I pushed my Life Alert button and was immediately answered by dispatcher. EMTs arrived within 10 minutes or so, they conversed with Life Alert dispatcher. All went well.

I started the fireplace on Sunday afternoon and it started smoking. We realized the clamper wasn't opened fully. We provided water on the logs and thought they were completely out. We were in the home all the rest of the afternoon on Sunday and even that night until about midnight. The next morning, we heard our fire alarm going off and the room was full of bellowing smoke again. Life Alert called the firemen and my neighbors to alert all of them. Thank you.

Approximately 2:am, my mom fell when getting out of bed to get on her scooter to go to the bathroom. She was not hurt anywhere, but I couldn't get her up off the floor. We pressed her Life Alert button on her necklace. The Life Alert operator was very helpful and stayed on the line until the fire department arrived. Life Alert provides a very valuable service for our mom and we appreciate knowing she has it. Thank you.

I woke up about 4:15 to 4:30am to go to the bathroom. My phone was too far from my bed. My arms and legs were limp I couldn't even hold on to my walker. I didn't want to fall. So, I pushed my Life Alert button. EMTs were here very quickly! My sugar was very low! EMTs gave liquid glucose; it helped. I found out later I had infection. I live alone. Life Alert saved my life. It has paid for itself!

Mom fell outside in my yard. She pressed the Life Alert button for help. A bit dazed, she was thinking she would hear the Life Alert voice from her wrist alarm. However, a neighbor helped her up into the house. By the time they got in the house, paramedics were knocking on the door. Thank you, Life Alert. This is an amazing product. It is a calming feeling to know she has an immediate call for help.

I have had to use my device twice in the past 6 mos. My first event was after a fall and I could have walked to the hospital faster than they responded! The second event occurred after I ate and choked on baby back ribs. The piece was lodged in my esophagus for 7 hours. When LifeAlert notified my 87 yo mother, they told her it was a suspected heart attack and scared her to death. I can no longer live on my own and wanted to return the equipment but LA refused. They would not give me an address.

My mother told me that when she got up at 5am to go to the bathroom, she blacked out and fell. Being 93 and weak in extremities, she was unable to get up so she pressed her Life Alert pendant for help. Volunteer fireman were already attending her when I arrived. EMS was there within 10 minutes. She was checked out at the hospital for injuries. Released within three hours and is doing OK as of now.

I bent over to pick something up and I have trouble with my legs and use a walker. I was on the other side of my living room. I always wear my Life Alert and also have the one to take when I go out. When I press the Life Alert button, they were great and got me help right away. Life Alert called the paramedics but I didn't need to go to the hospital. My son got this for me and we are both very satisfied.

My husband slipped beside his bed and was unable to get up. The Life Alert staff were very helpful and within minutes, the fire department arrived. They were courteous and gracious and gentle with my husband. He was put back in bed after all the vital signs were checked.

My husband had slipped out of his chair and landed on the floor. I could not get him up. He pressed the Life Alert button. Life Alert answered right away and got us help. We are very pleased with Life Alert. Life Alert stayed with us until help got here.

I was asleep. I sleep under oxygen and wear a CPAP mask every night. I was awaken by this loud noise. I did not know what it was at first, I thought it was the smoke alarm. I checked it and it was not. Then I touched my Life Alert to see if I touched it by mistake. But the Life Alert lady came on asking what was going on. I told her I don't know, she said I hear the beeping and I looked over and it was my oxygen machine. Life Alert said they had alerted someone and they were on their way out and she would stay on line until they arrived. She did and was very concern. I thanked her for her patience and kindness. May God Bless her. I thank God for having Life Alert!

I fell down and couldn't get up. I only hurt my pride. Life Alert called the ambulance and the response was prompt. Life Alert staff has always been courteous.

I slipped and fell in the hallway. Life Alert stayed on the phone until EMS arrived. Nothing broken. Life Alert called all of my contacts in a timely manner. Life Alert called me later to check on me. They followed through which is a plus. Thank you.

My mother fell in her home and by the time I got there, Life Alert was talking to her and had already notified EMS. Once I arrived and talked with Life Alert, they continued to stay on line until EMS arrived. I was very pleased with Life Alert's professionalism.

A Life Alert representative called me within minutes after my mom fell and pushed the Life Alert button. They informed me of what happened and emergency personnel was already on the way. A Life Alert representative called me again to be sure I was able to meet with emergency responders at the chosen hospital. One of the first responders at mom's house said he was very impressed with the Life Alert representative when they arrived because the representative had stayed on the line and had all my mom's information ready for them and also listed her medications. That responder also said he would recommend Life Alert.

I was sleeping upstairs and had an episode. My heart was racing. I woke up from a deep sleep and tried to get out of bed and I passed out. I fell down banging my nose and forehead. When I woke up, I tried to call my wife for help. She finally heard me and I told her to call 911. She returned and told me she couldn't get them. I knew she had the Life Alert button, so I told her to push the button. Life Alert came on right away and I finally got help. I don't know what I would have done without my wife's Life Alert button.

Client was not feeling well. Getting chest discomfort and Life Alert dispatch stayed with her until help arrived and transported her to the hospital. Response was quick and she was treated well. I would recommend Life Alert to anyone who can use it. Thank you!

My dad fell out of bed and hit his head. Later in the morning, his eyes rolled back in his head. That is when his caregiver called Life Alert. The paramedics came and checked his vital signs. The vital signs were good, but I took him to the emergency room to make sure there was no head trauma.

I had been asleep, when I woke up, wasn't sure where I was. I had blankets all wrapped around me while I was getting them off me. I fell to the floor when stepping in a recliner. My phone was across the room. I could only move a little at a time. Thank you, Life Alert, very much for the speed of the response.

I'm 92 years old and a resident at an assisted living. During the past two years, I have fallen and required help on three separate occasions. Each time, my Life Alert got me immediate help in less than 5 minutes. Life Alert representative contacted the nurses on staff without delay. The assistance I can certify was timely and life-saving.

I was outside in our shed, didn't take my phone, as I was gathering things for our church fund drive. I lost my balance and fell and couldn’t get up. Luckily, I had my Life Alert around my neck and pressed the button. In 7 minutes, the help was there for me. The people were all very nice and helpful.

EMTs were at my home very quickly and helped me up, even calming me down. Since my first fall, Life Alert have been here for two more falls, and they made me feel comfortable and answered my questions. Life Alert made me feel like a part of their family! I would recommend Life Alert to everyone--great people!

My husband fell. I could not get him up. The Life Alert got us an ambulance to assist with lift. The dispatcher stayed on line and talked to me periodically to let me know help was on the way until help arrived. I am so happy to have Life Alert in my home. I have used then several times all with extreme courtesy and patience.

I was in my bedroom getting ready for bed. I turned I guess too fast and down I went. I pushed the Life Alert button and EMTs were here in a few minutes. They got me up and were very wonderful. I'd recommend Life Alert to anyone; it's wonderful.

I fell and did not have a phone with me. Then I remembered my Life Alert which is always with me even in the shower. The volume in the response box is loud and clear. I also value my Life Alert because it is with me during my time in bed in case trouble comes at night.

I was coming into the living room when suddenly my 91 year old knees gave way. Down I went. I immediately righted myself and pressed my Life Alert button. The response was so quick and they alerted the rescue squad to my aid as well as the other people on my call list. Everything worked out well, and fortunately nothing was broken. Gratefully yours! Thank you! -- I am your client’s friend, and am on her Life Alert call list. I was very impressed with the promptness of the Life Alert call after her fall. I was at work, but the Life Alert caller called several times and was so good about calling again after client had been aided by the rescue squad. Great service by Life Alert!

I fell a few weeks ago. One step off cement to backyard, I fell flat on my tummy and hit my nose. I had a black nose for some time. Otherwise, I was not hurt from the fall itself. So, I didn’t go to the hospital. The guys were great--got me into a chair and talked for a bit. Life Alert has always been great when needed. There is no one around at 12:30 at night.

The carbon monoxide alarm in the apartment went off while I was cooking one Saturday evening. I was not aware that the system was connected to the Life Alert equipment. The fire department was notified by the Life Alert staff and I was instructed to get out of the apartment. Everything went well, the fire department response was very efficient.

This was my second fall. I don’t remember the date of the first fall, but the firemen had me on my feet in seconds. This time, I had felt a little dizzy earlier but not when I fell. I was alone this time and I had to do what I call “butt-walking” to get to the door so the firemen could get in. They are great--all smiling and had me on my feet in no time. They were cheerful and smiling, both times I fell. I had no warning or strange feelings, etc. My body just went limp, I guess. Don’t know what I would have done without Life Alert. This time I was alone when it happened. Thank you for Life Alert!

I had fallen on the floor. I punched my Life Alert button and Life Alert called my son. They sent the ambulance onto my home. EMTs checked me out completely and it was alright. If it had not been for Life Alert, I would have stayed on the floor all day.

Life Alert stayed with me on the phone (as usual) until the ambulance arrived. One of the helpers on the ambulance recognized me from an earlier emergency and he was a great comfort. He is a very kind person.

My mom felt really weak and needed to go to the hospital. Life Alert was very prompt and extremely helpful and courteous. Also, a couple of times, she accidentally set it off and Life Alert were really courteous and understanding. Thank you, Life Alert!

I was very impressed with my first experience with Life Alert. They responded very quickly, courteous, kind and caring. Life Alert also called me twice after EMTs left to ensure I was OK.

I woke up at 3am with severe chest pains. I called the nurse help line. She asked me a few questions and told me to hang up the phone and call 911 and don’t move. I pushed my Life Alert button around my neck and Life Alert representative stayed on the phone until the ambulance arrived.

I fainted in the bathroom. I could not get up. I alerted Life Alert and in less than 5 minutes, an ambulance arrived. The driver and the aides got me on my feet. I got dressed and was driven to the hospital. I depend on Life Alert. This was not the first time that I called Life Alert.

I had cut my thumb very badly and was bleeding profusely. The Life Alert people were very helpful--covering my wound and taking me to the hospital. I certainly appreciated Life Alert’s help!

I highly recommend Life Alert to anyone who need this. My mom lived with me on our property in a small trailer. She wasn’t feeling well Saturday, change of weather. Sunday morning, I went to check on her. She was laying on her back, couldn’t speak, trying to give me hand signals. I didn’t hesitate, called Life Alert, within 15 minutes, medical help arrived. Life Alert stayed on line with me to make sure everything was OK until they took her to the hospital. Life Alert was very courteous and helpful. I tell people about Life Alert and how good they are. If I ever need this, Life Alert is who I would get. Thank you so much.

My mother fell and Life Alert answered when she pushed her Life Alert button. EMS was called and sent out. I was called and came down to help. Life Alert has us stay on the line until after EMS had left with her.

I fell in the bathroom and broke my right wrist. Three cuts above right eye, fractured two bones in right cheek, damaged nerves in the right side of face and mouth. Hurt right leg, could not get up. My 13 year old grandson called Life Alert. They walked him through what to do. He gave me information through teary eyes and tone. Life Alert was very helpful, polite, and courteous. I have used Life Alert before and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you, dear Lord, for Life Alert.

Father tripped and fell and couldn’t get up. Life Alert called me. Paramedics were called. Life Alert called back later a couple of times to update me. Very nice staff and always respond quickly.

Client is 91 years old and lives by herself in her home. Her daughter lives two houses away. She got up to get some milk because she couldn’t sleep and fell, hit her head, and was bleeding a lot. She called Life Alert and they summoned her daughter and ambulance. She was taken to the hospital within minutes. Her daughter recommend Life Alert to everyone. It has been so helpful in keeping her mother in her own home.

Life Alert notified of client’s elevated blood sugar, confusion and nervousness. Ambulance and responders arrived. Life Alert dispatcher stayed on line until emergency people arrived. They also notified daughters who were not at this residence at the time. Pleased with the way things were handled.

Whenever I needed Life Alert’s service, they called the EMTs who arrived in minutes. My husband took a bad fall in the living room and they responded quickly as well. I have already recommended Life Alert services to people I have met.

Life Alert was very fast. I had help just in a few minutes. The ambulance driver was excited about Life Alert. They had never talked to them before. I tell everyone about my Life Alert. Thank you.

I have an inner ear problem which strikes without warning. At 9:00pm, I got up - the room started to spin. I put my right arm across my forehead and grabbed the arm of a double recliner with my left arm. My right arm hit the floor hard. I felt my rib break, but my hip didn’t hit the floor. I didn’t think I could or should even try to get up with a broken rib. I pushed the Life Alert button around my neck. I told Life Alert my problem. They made the necessary calls. The hospital confirmed that my rib was broken. Thanks for your help! Everyone who lives alone needs Life Alert!

Life Alert is an excellent business. They are very thorough, respectful and always alerts me if I have to make sure my pendant and help phone is working properly. Thank you so much. I am glad I purchased Life Alert.

I sat on a bench in my home and the bench slipped up on one end and landed me on the floor, and having two total knees replaced, I could not get up off the floor. Life Alert responded immediately. They were very efficient and courteous and professional. Most of all, Life Alert responded quickly of which I was very, very grateful.

Mother had gotten her leg closed on by an automatic door, a cook at the building helped her get to her apartment where she called Life Alert. They in turn called me to keep me informed and were helpful and kept me informed that EMTs had been dispatched.

I live alone and have spinal disease. I feel very safe with my Life Alert button. I wear Life Alert all the time and have used it a few times when I fell and couldn’t get up. Life Alert people stayed with me until the paramedics and police came. They were encouraging and supportive.

Dad fell. He pushed the Life Alert button on the lanyard around his neck. The ambulance came in a timely manner and took him to the hospital. He was found to have a cracked pelvis. The EMR staff said Life Alert communication was appropriate. “Life Alert did everything just like it was supposed to work.” We are very pleased and happy we choose Life Alert!

I fell outside of my home. Pushed the Life Alert button for help. Garage door was open. I yelled to Life Alert and explained where I was. I gave her the information that I was outside by an opened door of garage and I had a broken my wrist and needed help to get up. Response was positive and I was taken to the emergency when squad arrived. Thank you!!

My husband slipped out of bed and I found him in a very awkward position lying down in a tight place and he could not get up and I could not lift him. It was 1:30 am and we did not want to ask friends to come over. I pushed the Life Alert button on the bracelet and got a response right away. Help came after 15 minutes. Three people - and he was in bed within minutes, he was not hurt. I liked the way Life Alert stayed with me during the wait. Two people of the local fire department also came, just in case.

Mom slipped out of the bed and landed on the floor. Caregiver found her right after and pressed the Life Alert button. Life Alert called the ambulance and she was taken to the hospital. Also, found out she had a urinary tract infection.

My mother was recovering from a broken hip and fell backwards re-injuring her hip and breaking her tail bone. She hit her Life Alert button and EMTs were on their way as I was leaving my apartment, just a short distance away. I don’t think it could have been any better or quicker.

I tripped and fell against a door. I was unable to reach my cellphone. Pressed Life Alert. Fire department and an ambulance arrived within minutes. I sustained a superficial cut on my right arm. Fire department got me up and dressed the cut. My wife then took me to the emergency room where I received care of the cut; i.e. sutures.

I fell in my kitchen and could not get up. I called Life Alert, they also called my daughters. EMTs helped me up and took me to the hospital. I broke my left arm and elbow. They were very nice and I am 95 years old and live alone.

My grandmother broke her hip and called Life Alert. EMS was dispatched. Life Alert called me with updates--much appreciated. She had previously been nervous to call Life Alert but we did a test call and the staff was very kind. She lives alone so I am so thankful she was wearing the Life Alert necklace that day. Thank you!

I was unable to contact my mother. Her phone was ringing with a busy tone for quite a while. All I could picture in my head was that something was terribly wrong. I contacted Life Alert for assistance, they were very comforting and reassuring. They made a “welfare check” with a local police department. I was contacted immediately with wonderful news that she was okay. Apparently she had pushed the telephone wire out of the wall without her knowledge. Life Alert gives me peace of mind which is priceless. Thank you.

I was gathering the trash from the waste baskets and fell to the floor while emptying the basket into the garbage bag. I fell, then punched my Life Alert bracelet. The paramedics arrived right away. I was fine and was very glad I had Life Alert.

I fell in the parking lot at my apartment. I called, or I mean, I pushed the button on my GPS phone for Life Alert. Spoke on the phone to agent and help was there quickly. Second time, called inside home. Life Alert agent very helpful. Help arrived quickly. Very happy to have Life Alert. I feel much safer now as far as being able to help myself in serious situations so far. Thanks for being there when I needed help.

Mom fell quite a few times so we got Life Alert in these past few months to help her. Life Alert was so prompt to help. Help came within 10 minutes from the call. I feel so relieved knowing she has the Life Alert button on her neck. And also, she feels so safe wearing it. Best thing that ever happened was buying the help of Life Alert.

I found mom slumped over in her bathroom. She was unresponsive so I pressed her Life Alert button. I was answered immediately and the paramedics were here in about 8-10 minutes. Life Alert stayed on with me until EMTs took her out. Mom was awake when I got to the hospital and came home the next day. The young man who answered called me back later to check on her. How nice!

My mother fell in her kitchen in the early morning. Life Alert dispatched an ambulance for her and called the 4 contacts on her list. I would like to say a sincere “thank you” to all the Life Alert dispatchers who answered her calls for help the past 3 years. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Life Alert was there. God Bless you always!

I fell on my kitchen floor and pushed the Life Alert neck button. Life Alert staff arrived in less than 15 minutes, picked me up carefully, and led me in my walker to a recliner in a TV room. Team was professional, did not rush, assured of my comfort and at all times helpful, polite and friendly. Great!!

I became light-headed and dizzy at home. Took my blood pressure (84) pushed and called in my Life Alert button. First responders and paramedics answered the call. After two blood pressure readings, they recommended I go to the ER. Urine specimens showed UTI. I didn’t realize I had it. Returned home after three hours in ER. All emergency personnel were professional and very nice. Thank you for being there. I’ll pay my monthly fee, without any gripes! My Life Alert button's more than paid for itself.

Approximately 6pm, I was standing in front of my washing machine. I felt a pulse in my forehead promising a fall to my right, (I stopped the fall). So, I called Life Alert--five very professional men arrived with a stretcher. My somewhat imbalance was apparently due to blood pressure. No question there - as a retired registered nurse (I practiced it for 45 years), I told them I take blood pressure meds. I went to the hospital emergency room.

I am pleased with the response of Life Alert staff when I press the emergency bracelet of my husband. Life Alert staff asks what the emergency is all about and call the ambulance for us and makes assurances that helped is on our way; approximately the ambulance people come at least 10 minutes after. Thanks to the Life Alert staff, we are greatly appreciative of Life Alert’s past responses.

I was brushing my son's dog near the family room door and the patio door when I fell onto the outside cement patio. I was wearing my wrist band Life Alert. If I hadn’t been wearing the wristband I would have to scream for help and cause a lot of commotion and embarrassment for myself. Life Alert sent help and saved me and the dog's day!

I was having a hard time breathing with asthma and bronchitis. I called Life Alert and a well-trained operator kept me well informed of what was going on. It was very comforting for me as she kept informing me that help was on the way. I spent nine days in the hospital recovering.

My mother suffered a stroke. Life Alert stayed on the phone with her until medical transport arrived and took her to the hospital. She is doing much better. Thanks to Life Alert.

I called for two days to cancel a account I had paid for over 15 years that I had never had to use once thankfully. We had it for a business in case of emergency, could help us get help if needed at push of a button. Every time we tested machine we had polite operators. Upon canceling the account we had the exact opposite experience. We were transferred the first day 4 times, spent 40 minutes trying to stop acct., never got it accomplished. They kept asking me why I wanted to cancel then would say "let me get you to the right person." Felt like a scam after 3rd time.

Client was home alone in the late evening hours. I received a phone call from Life Alert at 6am telling me he had fallen in the bathroom and the paramedics were on their way. I received a second phone call telling me the condition of the client. He had no broken bones or injuries. Life Alert responded to client’s call for help immediately and kept me up-to-date with his condition. I, his caregiver, was out of town and Life Alert continued to call his children to let them know his condition as well.

I fell, and when I fall I can’t get up without help. Life Alert was very professional and prompt. EMTs helped me to my wheelchair. Don’t know what I would have done without Life Alert. They’re a life saver. Thank you so much.

About 9am, I don’t know how or why I fell to my knees in the living room facing my chair. I use a walker, oxygen and all my joints are arthritic. I have not knelt for thirty years. I pushed my Life Alert button and help was on the way. The fire company had to break in the back door, all the time Life Alert stuck with me, it was a great comfort.

My mother fell while alone. Life Alert notified me then followed up to be sure the situation was under control. Although my mother was not near the Life Alert box, she could hear the representative and they could hear her clearly.

After my Life Alert system was set up, I used Life Alert within the next week. I went outside to get my newspaper early in the AM. Slipped and fell on the damp side walk. No bleeding or broken bones so I was able to scoot up to the entry way of my home. I pushed my Life Alert button and it was responded to quickly. I am really pleased with Life Alert for the security it provides for me.

I was coming up from my basement. At the top step, I suddenly felt no breath. I panicked and walked into my living room and hit the Life Alert button. Immediately, someone answered and in no time at all, an ambulance was at my address, and two attendants. One spoke with Life Alert and the other man attended to me.

I was walking outside and stepped on some uneven driveway and fell face down on blacktop. I was unable to roll over or sit up. I had my Life Alert and was able to push the Life Alert button. They were professional and had an ambulance in about 10 minutes. Life Alert staff responded on first push of the Life Alert button and stayed on with me until ambulance arrived. Highly recommend this Life Alert service to anyone living alone. Thank you so much.

My nose started to bleed like an open faucet. I was alone at that time and could not stop the flow. After over ¾ hour when I began to feel faint, I pressed my Life Alert. A gentleman came right on and stayed on with me until paramedics arrived. Having Life Alert was like having an extra family member to call on for help. Thanks so much!!

Life Alert notifies families immediately. We felt so secure. My mother gets such great responses from Life Alert. My mom had low blood pressure and was going to emergency room. We want our mom around for a long time and Life Alert company made that possible.

I had caught my foot on a board on my back porch. There was nothing nearby to grab so I fell and hit my right shoulder. Have two bad knees so needed help getting up. Had not had to use my Life Alert call button for emergency before. Pressed it. Say waiting for EMTs. In meantime, my young neighbor happened to come out of his house. He helped me up. When I got into the house, the ambulance was there. I declined transport to hospital. Saw my medical doctor that week. Life Alert called both contact persons.

I tripped on a shoelace and fell head first to floor. Hit my head on an oak rocking chair, then my nose hit the chair, and hit my chest on the rocker. Am taking blood thinners, so my nose was bleeding a lot. I was unable to get up, so I activated my Life Alert pendant. The Life Alert lady who answered was great! She got a hold of the medics and my daughter fast. I asked her if she could stay on the line. She reassured me she would and talked with me until they all got here. I thank God I had Life Alert so I could get to the phone. The lady really helped me and so I didn’t feel alone until help got here.

My 95 year old father passed out. Life Alert had responders at the home quickly and asked if they needed medical information of my father. Because I was home, I was able to give it. Life Alert is always calm, quick, and stay with you until you tell them you are OK and help has arrived.

I became seriously ill on the night of September 5th 2016. I pushed the Life Alert button in the morning. Answer was nearly immediate. Ambulance and fire department arrived within 15 minutes, took my vitals, and on to the hospital. Best of all, Life Alert notified my loved ones on the list. After 8 days in the hospital, I got diagnosed with ulcerative colitis.

I felt dizzy and then fainted. Husband called Life Alert and they were there in a few minutes. Took me to the hospital where several tests were run. It was determined it was the results of dehydration. Went home.

My 89 year old mother felt numbness in her arm and used her Life Alert button. Life Alert had an ambulance dispatched. Life Alert notified all three of her children and then updated the information to let us know where she was sent. I was out of town and the information and action provided when the stroke occurred by Life Alert was invaluable.

I fell getting out of my bathtub after taking a shower, and hit the back of my head on the tub. I tried to get up, but I was not able to, so I pushed the Life Alert button. People came shortly, the man grabbed a sheet from my linen closet so I could lower myself. I was taken to the hospital. My kids were called, and my son came to the hospital.

I was bending over next to my pool to collect a water sample, when I raised up, I became very dizzy and fell on my left side (away from the pool)! I didn’t have any broken bones or bruises. I didn't know if my Life Alert pendant signal would reach outside. It did. Help came and I was so happy. Everyone was professional and helpful. They made sure I was OK to stay home before they left. If they didn't come, I would have to have crawled, pulling my walker behind me!

I used my Life Alert late in the evening when my dog became very upset, which was not his usual behavior. There was a quick response and Life Alert stayed in touch with me, until the police arrived. They even asked if they should call my children, who live in another state. My children were so happy to know I have Life Alert.

I reached out to Life Alert after experiencing nausea, lightheadedness, and having coffee ground emesis. Being a nurse and health care professional, I knew I was experiencing symptoms of a gastrointestinal bleed. I obtained an immediate and professional and caring response to my emergency call. The Life Alert staff member stayed on the line with us right until the emergency response team arrived. Being anxious and frightened, it was great having the comfort and kind words until help arrived. Thank you for your help.

At the time I used Life Alert, I was at another town. At 2:00 am, I did not feel well. I thought I had a heart burn. When I broke out in a sweat, I knew something was wrong. My granddaughter woke up and pressed the Life Alert button. A very caring voice made contact with me. I was able to tell him where I was, my symptoms, etc. In a matter of minutes, the EMTs arrived, two ambulances, police and a fire truck. I was well taken care of. Thanks to Life Alert I am alive to write this.

I was in a chair, fell asleep and fell over with chair going into wall AC unit. I hit my head and hand. The hand was bleeding badly. My head hit the window baseboard. I couldn’t get up and pushed my Life Alert button. Life Alert responded and called help for me and they responded within minutes.

I live alone with my small dog. About 9pm, I went into my kitchen and turned around suddenly. Lost my balance and fell. I bruised my right cheek near my eye. When I tried to sit up my back hurt. I pressed the Life Alert button and immediately I heard Life Alert answer! I explained what happened and they sent the EMTs and ambulance right away. I wasn't aware they also called everyone on the list. Luckily I wasn't hurt--just shook up. No broken bones. Lots of visitors from the list the next day! Thank you, Life Alert!

I fell in the early hours of the morning. I tried to get up and could not get up. So, I pushed my Life Alert button and the Life Alert staff came on and asked if I needed help and called for help for me. Life Alert staff stayed on the line until the firemen told them they were here with me and I would be taken care of. Life Alert also called my sister and checked with her path to see if she followed me to the emergency room. Life Alert saved me.

My mother wondered off from her home she shared with my father. She has dementia and is 84 years old. My father is 89 years old and couldn't find her. They both wear the Life Alert pendants and he remembered to push it. The Sheriff’s department came and found her. She had fallen outside, had heat stroke, dehydrated and blistered. Air lifted and spent 3 nights in hospital.

When I was at my dad's house, he wasn't feeling well. When I was ready to leave, he pressed his Life Alert pendant. I stayed with him until help arrived. Life Alert was very speedy and they were very helpful.

My mother was having a terrible pain in her right rib cage and having a hard time breathing. When I pressed her Life Alert button for help on her table top machine, the Life Alert operator answered and sent the paramedics right away and she stayed on the line with us the whole time we were waiting and kept informing us when EMTs were about to arrive.

I fell out of bed. I have neuropath and the muscles in my legs won't push up. I pushed my Life Alert button on and the person answering called the paramedics. Within 10 minutes, EMTs lifted me into a chair, which allowed me to get on my feet from there. I feel a little embarrassed but am thankful Life Alert is there. It was the 2nd time this happened. I know Life Alert will be there when needed. Thanks to all that helped.

I had vertigo and my blood pressure was high. The two men who were sent by Life Alert recommended that I should consider going to the emergency room, which I choose to do. My problem was taken care of. Thank you for your cooperation and prompt response.

I have had several falls, which prompted our children to insist that I get a Life Alert. Two days after I received it--my husband, while in my care, fell out of his wheel chair. Within minutes, we received help. After he returned from the hospital, I again had to punch my Life Alert button--even though we had two nurses present, we needed help. Again, within minutes, help arrived. This was the second time I needed Life Alert in the first week! You press the button and you get help quickly!

My great grandma had fallen outside and was able to scoot on her bottom up the back porch stairs to be able to communicate with Life Alert. EMTs arrived promptly to take her vitals and assess her, and they told us she was all good and refused to go with them. The two guys were very professional and caring. Thanks again.

I had a very serious bacterial infection and one night while getting ready for bed, I felt like I was going to pass out and my heart started racing. I pressed the Life Alert button on the console in my bedroom and in less than a minute, I talked with someone who was very helpful and stayed on the line talking to me until the EMTs came with ambulance to take me to the emergency room.

I experienced a severe loss of blood, which caused my blood pressure to drop dangerously low. Life Alert responded right away and the paramedics and fire fighters responded very quickly when Life Alert called and transported me to the emergency room. After several hours, my blood pressure reversed to normal.

I had stepped out of my shower. I lost my balance and tried to grab my walker and missed. I then hit my head on the seat of the shower and finally ended on the floor; blood from my head.  However, I had my Life Alert around my neck and EMTs were here in about 5 minutes before my son could even get here. I was taken to the hospital.

My experience with the personnel of Life Alert was very positive. I appreciated their frequent calls reassuring me that help was on the way. It was comforting to hear a kind voice and assuaging my anxiety. I am thankful.

My mom was having a stroke--pressed Life Alert on our own table top unit. Although they did not communicate through the unit as in the past, within minutes, we received a call via the cell phone indicating help was on its way. Life Alert stayed on the phone with me until medics arrived.

I suppose Life Alert's action were small, but priceless to me. Just a matter of getting me back on my feet. After grocery shopping one Friday, I began carrying my grocery bags into my house from the garage. I was tired and didn't pick my foot high enough, I hit below the step and fell forward. I was not hurt - just couldn't get up. When the firemen came, they not only got me on my feet but finished carrying the rest of my groceries in the house. Thank you!

My dad woke up with a horrible pain in his right arm. We could not get him out of bed due to the pain. I called Life Alert. They responded immediately. Within minutes, the paramedics came to help. After checking my dad, they rushed him to the nearest emergency room at the hospital. Life Alert stayed on the system the whole time the paramedics were helping.

Recently my mom fell going to use the bathroom at 2am. She broke her collarbone. She pushed the Life Alert button, which awoke me. Within 15 minutes, paramedics were here and helped her to her feet. She opted not to go to the hospital at that time. We took her the next day.

I fell in my living room and couldn't get up. The lady on the Life Alert was in my bedroom base and was hard to hear but then I noticed my phone was in reach of my cane nearby, so I managed to use that to get the phone in my hand. She was advising me where the aid car was in coming to my aid.

My foot was stuck in an afghan and I was trying to free it. I got the afghan on the floor near my Hoveround’s front wheels. Then the wheel got stuck in the afghan and the chair wouldn't move. My kids who live nearby were out of town so I had to hit my new Life Alert button or never get to the bathroom again. I wheeled my chair back to my bedside and got in bed. Two paramedics came and got out medical knives and started cutting off the afghan. Then they vacuumed all the fuzz. I couldn't have been happier.

I am 98 years old but generally healthy. Evidently, I fell down in my apartment because I was extremely amoebic (when I arrived at the hospital, my red blood cells registered at '7,' which was told was dangerously low). Lying on the floor, I pressed my Life Alert button. I wiggled and crawled until I pulled myself up onto a chair. The doorbell rang; the ambulance had arrived. At this point, the building superintendent, who is due to be called by Life Alert, had not arrived, so I carefully stood up and went to the front door myself. We later learned that the superintendent was not at home that evening. Lesson: my son subsequently bought a “lockbox,” which holds my front door key and is opened by anyone with the combination, which he has given Life Alert for future use if needed.

Most recent experience happened when the hospital called me to go to the emergency room. I did not know at that time, that I was in a serious situation. I called Life Alert as I was talking to the hospital personnel. Life Alert responded in minutes and stayed in contact with me until the EMS arrived. Even after the arrival of the EMS, Life Alert continued to talk with me and reassured me until I was placed in the EMS ambulance.

I needed the fire department to check my light fixture as I had trouble trying to change a bulb late at night and was afraid there could be a short and start a fire. Life Alert got the fire department out (no sirens needed) and asked if they needed to contact my emergency contacts (they did not). Life Alert stayed on the line all through the fire department’s help and all ended well. No short and I did not get hurt, trying to change the bulb myself. It was an overhead light in the front room.
