How GetSafe Medical Alert works
Unlike most systems that require you to push a button, GetSafe’s voice-enabled two-way communication consoles allow you to get help by saying, “Call 911” twice.
GetSafe offers free standard shipping, and its installation process requires no landlines. Plus, all systems are backed by UL-certified 24/7 medical alert monitoring centers.
You can add wall buttons, communication consoles and other equipment to any plan. Wall buttons can be strategically placed by stairs, hallways and other high-risk areas. The company equips its communication consoles with amplified speakers and sensitive microphones to ensure clarity during an emergency.

Still have questions?
Does GetSafe make a good medical alert?
Overall, GetSafe is worth considering if you want an in-home system and remember how to operate it in an emergency. We like that packages are customizable — you can add wall buttons, communication consoles and other equipment to any plan to maximize protection. We like that you get free standard shipping and that the installation process seems straightforward.
However, while this voice-activated unit is ideal for those who can remember basic instructions, there might be better choices for users with cognitive impairments who may not remember how to operate the system.
