I have COPD and after an incident where I passed out and wasn't found for a while, my wife said we're gonna have to get a medical alert device for me. I was shaken up that time but once I got the GreatCall device, I have more confidence about getting out and around. I knew I had help if I needed it. I had one question early on and their customer service team answered that immediately. They also showed me how to test the device so it would give me a sense of security and it was working fine. That was an excellent time. The GreatCall fits into my lifestyle. I wear it around my neck and don't notice it. However, it's weird taking a shower with it. I wish it was smaller and cheaper, too because we're both retired and it's something we didn't plan for originally when we did our budget. But my wife and I both feel better that I've got it. That's the important thing.

I had polio and I don't walk anymore. I'm in an electric wheelchair and I can't take care of myself. But I have my husband and we just moved close to my daughter 'cause I don't wanna go to a nursing home. I was just depending on my cell phone with Splash, which seems to work. It's got an emergency push so that's what I was gonna use. And it's a good price for $30 a month. When I bought it, the representative on the phone said to try it and say that it is a test when they answer right away, so they don't send somebody to our house. He was very polite and good at explaining.

I live alone and I felt I could have something like a medical alert device where I can be able to get ahold of an emergency personnel. I'm glad I got GreatCall. There were three times that I had to get ahold of them because I left it in my pants and it went through the washer but everything was okay, it still worked and I really like it. One of the customer service reps wanted to call to make sure I had everything turned on and then one of the other ladies would call and ask me a few questions about the payment. What had happened was I was there trying to get out of these credit card debts so I had her to put it on my debit card rather than a credit card to make it easier. That way I can be able to keep track of it and everything was good.

I fall easily and I'm over 300 pounds so it’s hard for anybody to put me up, so I got a medical alert device. I had one before but it would not work outside of my house. This GreatCall works wherever I go. I don’t leave the house usually but I have to go out since the specialists don’t make house calls. The reps are very nice and polite and usually on time and don’t take a lot of time. They do vitals and question me if I’m hurt or if I want to go to the hospital. I once needed to go to the hospital, and they took me. When I called the first time, I asked them to make sure they had strong people because I’m so big. They usually send four people out to see, and they do a wonderful job.

I had developed what they call POTS - Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. Sometimes it causes my heart to race, and I blackout. The heart doctor said I was all right now and to just take these pills in case I have a stroke or a heart attack. My wife said she would feel better if I had one of those alert devices in case I got into a problem because I'm old and I'm bad about getting out to do stuff. When I called up GreatCall to order the device, the rep was knowledgeable and sociable. It went very well. I wanted one to wear on my belt, but they didn't have that, so I just carry mine in my pocket when I go out of the house.

I’m living alone and I’m 93, and for the last few years my kids have had me on a similar medical alert device but just for this area through the hospital in West Lake. Because I travel, they decided I needed something more that could travel with me. One of my daughter-in-laws’ father had GreatCall Splash and they thought this was better than what I had. I wear it almost all the time except if I’m really dressed up and I have my daughters with me. At night, I put it in the battery stand but it’s right by my hand, so it would be no problem getting it. I had it when I went out to California because I was without close help. The only thing that I would recommend is there should be some way that they would connect with me to see that I was all right with their device.

I'm soon 92 and I don't walk very well, so I don't leave the house. I also have a housekeeper living here who insists I wear the GreatCall medical alert if I go outside, but I don't go very far, just to the backyard because I grow chrysanthemums by a pot, although I do that sitting down. That's about all I do other than going to a masseur and a military doctor. I fell a couple of times, but my housekeeper was here. Therefore, I've never used the device because if I go to town, I'm with her and if I were to fall, she's there always. But I know the device is there. I just never used it.

GreatCall best hours to reach you. For two days, morning, noon, and evening, I have called the customer support line, the order number, and Contact Us number (3 different numbers). I waited over 5 minutes on each call before hanging up, the longest, just now at 5:27 minutes. This is unacceptable. Remember the population you are working with: infirm, frail, elderly, and their exhausted and anxious family.

I'm 91 years old and I'm slowing down. I live alone and my children thought I needed to go to a facility, but I told them I'm not ready for that and I wanted to stay in my home as long as I can take care of it. Then they thought of getting an emergency alert system and that sounded good, so that's what we did. I'm very happy with it and I use it everyday. I feel I'm in good care and protected. If I have an emergency, I have the device to rely on. Otherwise, I'll just keep my doors locked and try to be safe.

I’ve been wearing GreatCall Splash since I got it. I live alone and I’m partially paralyzed, and I feel a little safer going out with it. Hopefully, I'll never have to use it, but it’s here if I need it.

I ordered a phone from Amazon for my mother at the beginning of June. The phone arrived and we called GreatCall to activate it. After hours on the line with customer service, the phone was never able to be activated. We returned that phone and received another phone, pre-activated, from GreatCall. After trying out the service for a few weeks, we found the service to be unreliable (e.g. every third word of a conversation would be unintelligible). Per GreatCall, we returned the phone to the Product Support Center in San Diego, CA.

I only had to use my GreatCall Splash once and it was lifesaving. I was having a heart attack and didn’t know it but I couldn’t breathe. I used it and got 911 involved right away.

I had Medical Alert and it took up the phone lines. I'm in Florida, with Florida Flicker and Flash, wherein we never know when we're gonna have the lights and phone out. Also Medical Alert only went for 500 feet around my property so if I go to the neighbors or I take off for lunch with the girls, it's no good. My son and his boys at the law enforcement here gave me the money to get GreatCall instead because it goes wherever I want to go. I put the device on my hip bands every day. When it beeps, I put it in the holder to recharge and it takes about two hours.

I'm caring for a very dear friend that has Alzheimer's and I'm at risk for falling. I'm 75 and if she fell or I fell I wanted to have a device to press so I could get help. So I got a medical alert device from GreatCall Splash. I tested it by pressing the button and the GreatCall team did respond and they're friendly.

I live alone and over 80, so I needed a medical alert device. The rep that I talked to when I bought my GreatCall Splash was very knowledgeable and friendly. Though they didn't give me a lanyard for it, the device easily fits in my pocket. I feel much more confident since having the device. I get down and spend hours at our fish pond on the farm, so if I fall in the water I can call for help. Also, I'm pleased that it's active a hundred miles away from my house.

I just added 5-star service and now I have absolutely no service. This is an emergency. I need immediate help. Your website said you sent me an email saying when you would help, but there is not email from you. I used to be satisfied with you, but now I am panicked and scared and worried and very, very angry.

I'm 80 years old and have bad arthritis. I've had both knees replaced and if I fell, I couldn't get up. I live alone, so the medical alert device is my security blanket. The price of GreatCall Splash was half as much as other medical alert devices and they would go anywhere. I call once to the reps because I thought somebody was trying to get in my house, and the reps called the police and had the police come out. And they stayed with me on the phone which was very comforting. They sent me a new charger when I had trouble and it still didn't work, so they sent me a new phone. I love it. I wear the device around my neck unless I'm going at something fancy and I put it in my purse. But I keep it with me all the time. I don't go to the basement unless I have the device on and hang it by the shower when I take a shower in case I fell in there and it's a great comfort to me. I have recommended them to several people.

I purchased a GreatCall Splash for my mom early July 2015 from Amazon and she has had numerous issues charging it and now just a little over a year it will not charge at all. She called me today and said she has been trying to call the company and cannot get through and when she did finally have an option for them to call her back they have not. I myself was on the phone for over 15 mins and never got through so I sent an email for them to call her and let me know if we're able to contact my Mom. I have yet to get an email or call letting me know I filed a complaint.

One of my neighbors fell and broke her hips inside her house. Nobody knew for eight days and she couldn't get to a phone. I thought I'm not taking that risk as I live alone. I was gonna call three different companies and think about them, and GreatCall was the first one I dialed. The woman I talked to was very helpful. I went ahead and got it because it sounded fine and it was everything I figured I needed. I accidentally pushed the button before but really haven't had to use it yet. I'm glad I got GreatCall. I feel like I depend on it.

I live alone and I have a couple of medical problems that I could possibly need medical assistance with. I also had friends who lived alone that had subsequently died in their homes without anyone knowing, which led me to getting a medical alert device. I’ve called GreatCall on three issues when I had to go to the hospital and they got someone out quickly. I take the device with me when I go out, just in case. I like having it and it gives me peace of mind.

One time as I was going out the door, I hit the sidewalk and fell and there was nobody in my little complex. Luckily my neighbor’s daughter arrived and called the ambulance for me. Since I live alone, I thought that a medical alert device would be a good investment and GreatCall was the cheaper one. So, that's what I took and I wear it everyday. I have accidentally hit the button one day and they answered right away. Their reps were very friendly. They made sure that I was okay. I told them that I accidentally hit the button when I was getting dressed and that it was not an emergency but they were very nice to me.

I live alone, and have fallen about three times in the last couple of years, so I wanted to have something that could get somebody out here a little faster than wobbling to the phone. I'm still independent and still get around. And I'm very careful about where I go and what I do, but I've had hip replacement and back surgery, and so I walk a little wobbly. I use a walker, but not in the house. I have a GreatCall, and I like it because it's not as expensive as the one I had before. I also like that it's mobile, and I can take it wherever I go. Since having it, I have fewer worries. I've called to test it and they’ve always been very nice and they've helped me. I keep it in the little charger thing and it's fairly local to where I'm at in the house. My house is very tiny so it's been fine and I've always had it with me if I needed it.

My daughter got the GreatCall Splash for me since my walking isn't real good. I haven't had to use it but it’s been working. The cord is too long, though, and I don’t know how to shorten it.

My sister and my brother were here and I was in Florida. My husband passed away and I sold my house and I moved here and was always okay, but all of a sudden one day I woke up and I was on the floor. I had passed out and they found out that I lack salt. My sister was worried that something is going to happen so after I passed out that first time, she decided that she'd look into GreatCall. She got all the information and the next thing I know I had it.

My kids bought GreatCall Splash for me since they thought I needed it. I’ve got a chain I wear around my neck that I stick in my brassiere. That’s where I keep it during the day. At night, it’s in my bed in my bedroom. One time I hit the button by mistake while I was trying to put it in my pocket, and right away, they responded and were very friendly and nice. I’m trying to be careful when I’m moving it, but so far I'm happy with it.

I have a cardiac problem and I've got an implant. I'm 80 years old and I could kick the bucket anytime. So, for the family's peace of mind more than mine, I got the GreatCall Splash medical alert service. My wife is not capable of responding, so hopefully I would still be able to push the alert button, and if not, somebody else could. I keep the alert device in a pocket. It's there all the time, just a part of me, like wearing a watch. My daughter and two grandsons are on alternate monitoring schedules, so they know that if they get a call from GreatCall, it's a major thing. The times that I've tested the alert button, the team at GreatCall have been responsive and accurate with my location, so I'm very pleased with the service. The reps were very professional, knowledgeable, and I was very happy with them in the couple of times that I've dealt with them.

I live alone and I kept falling over and fainting. I thought it would be a good idea to have something handy and the GreatCall did come in handy. In April, I was working out in the rose garden and I came to step up on the sidewalk. I misjudged the height of the sidewalk and caught my toe, fell forward and hit my head on the concrete step above. I split my head wide open. It was serious and I could not get up off the sidewalk and go into the house to call an ambulance. I was sitting there bleeding like a stuck hog and I realized I had my GreatCall on, which I wear all the time. I pushed the button and sure enough, someone answered within a second or two. She asked how she could help me and I described my problem. She thanked me and within minutes, 10 minutes at the very most, I heard the ambulance siren coming.

I’m an elderly gentleman living by myself, and I never know what can happen so I ordered a GreatCall Splash device. I carry it with me all the time and everywhere I go. I have no problem having it hang around my neck, too. It's working very well and I'm very happy with it. I will recommend it to everybody.

I had fallen and broke my hip and the guy in rehab suggested I carry the GreatCall device in case I fall again so I got one. I walk by myself everyday at home in Florida with it but I forgot it when I went here at Pennsylvania. I'll soon be home again so I'll be wearing it again. It's reassuring and nice to know that if I fell, someone will know it. I'd recommend GreatCall Splash.

I live by myself and both of my neighbors have used GreatCall Splash for emergencies and had ambulances come so I know it works. With GreatCall Splash, I feel that I have help if I need it. I have device on a leather belt clip and so far, it's been good.

I'm 87 years old and living by myself and though I'm in good health, anything could happen. I've had to use GreatCall Splash twice and they were perfect. I didn’t get a necklace the first time when I got mine and have been using a string that got old and was cutting into my neck. So, I called the company two weeks ago and asked the lady if there's any way I could get a necklace for my neck and she sent me one quickly. My conversations with their reps have been swell. I’m very satisfied with the company and the device so far.

I switched to GreatCall because my previous medical alert service didn't have a GPS. I didn't feel as confident with it as I would be with GreatCall. However, the new one from GreatCall is very heavy and cumbersome. I had a special chain made for it because the black one that came with it was ridiculous. It stuck out a large amount of the cord and just wouldn't tuck down under my shirt. The whole situation is cumbersome because of not knowing whether to wear it inside my bra or outside my bra. It's like wearing a cellphone around your neck. But other than that I've done a test of it to make sure it worked and when I called they were fine.

We're very pleased with GreatCall Splash so far. It's worked very well for Paul who's elderly and lives alone. I bought the device for him due to its price and the convenience it brings. After that, we called their team for activation and setup which went well. Now, I'm more confident that if he needs it, he can readily attain it. I have recommended their services to others.

I've had my GreatCall for little over a month and had to use it the other day. They came through with flying colors. He stayed on the line with me, called the ambulance, and talked to me until the emt's got here. I didn't remember his name but I think he did his job very well. It's comforting to know I have someone I can depend on to be there for me. Thanks.

I've had a medical alert device for several years but I got GreatCall about a year and a half ago. At that time I was traveling to Florida every winter and I could carry my GreatCall device anywhere with me unlike the other ones where I had to be within 600 feet from my phone. I haven’t had to use it but I've hit it a couple of times by mistake and they called me right away.

I got GreatCall Splash for my elderly mom, who lives in one state and works in another three days a week, so she needs to have a portable device. All was well, till she lost her device a few weeks ago. I ordered a new one for a hefty $50 plus shipping. The new device needs to be recharged every 13 hours - and it takes three hours to recharge!! That means that if my mom leaves the house at 8 AM to go to the office, she'd better be back by 9 PM - and she needs to leave the device in the charging dock all night so that it is fully charged for the next day, which makes her very nervous. GreatCall says they don't manufacture the old devices, that lasted 2-3 days between charges anymore, so we are looking for a new provider whose devices have longer-lasting batteries.

My mother has GreatCall Splash but she really has not had any use of it since she had a stroke on June 5th and just got home a week ago from a nursing home rehabbing. One thing we aren't pleased with device is the little clip that holds it on her wrist band. My mother has a pacemaker so she cannot wear it around her neck. She's saying that the device is so heavy, it just comes off her wrist. It's not very user-friendly. Since she couldn't get it to stay on her wrist, the device was in the charger in her bedroom and she wasn't able to use it to get assistance when she had the stroke. Furthermore when the little plastic clip thing didn't work right, GreatCall Splash charged us another $10 to be sent another one. We had not gotten it yet though.

My wife has multiple sclerosis and it continued to get worse over time. She falls sometimes and I can't be here every minute so I wanted something that could help her in case she did and I happen to be outside or not real close by. We looked around and GreatCall was saying it would do everything and the price was reasonable too. She keeps it by her bed at night then when she gets up in the morning she puts it on. I know she constantly got it right by her and it's there for her safety. GreatCall makes her, me and the whole family feel a lot better. I can be outside and if anything happens I know she can get to me with it. And if they missed the button they can tie me in with her to the dispatchers. So it gives me some great relief and the confidence that life can go on. It lets me live a little bit better too even as a caregiver.

I wear my GreatCall Splash medical alert device every day and take it off at night. Sometimes I don’t put it on when I'm around the house, but I put it on when we go out to the store, where things could happen. Everything is fine. I’m getting used to it. In fact, I have no difficulties with it at all. One time, I took it off and the cord got tangled near the unit and it touched the button, which caused it to go off. A call came immediately and scared me. I wondered who was calling with that thing, and I tried to answer. A lady called first and I had a hard time understanding her. I hesitated and then a man answered, and he came through with what the situation was and it was very clear in his reply so I told him it was by accident. I told him what happened. I was very happy that the response was adequate. I’m careful of what I do now so I don’t get myself caught up in stuff like that.

I'm 94 and though in great health I decided I needed a medical alert device. My friend researched them all and said GreatCall Splash was the one for me. It's okay to use but I don't wear it outside. I don’t think it’s good outside. Other than that, I haven’t had any problems with it except that I misplace it a lot.

I had a balance problem and my daughter was concerned about it. She did some research and came along with the GreatCall medical device which is really great. I wear it every day and I like the idea that it has a magnet on the back. I'm happy with my GreatCall and so far I haven't needed it but that’s what we want. Several people have stopped me too and asked me about the device and I told them I like it. I've given them the information that I have.

I had fallen once, I live alone and I'm 82 so getting GreatCall was a precautionary kind of thing. I used Medical Alert before but I found their equipment faulty. It's not working and I found a lot of trouble using it. On the other hand, the GreatCall device works wonderfully and I never had any trouble with it. I've only called them to check and see if it's working properly. Also, it goes a long time before I have to put it back on the battery charger. However, the first wristband I got kept falling apart within the first couple of weeks that I had it. The little silver part that you attach to put it together with fell off and I couldn't get it fixed so I ordered a new one. This wristband piece of plastic cost $19. How in the world could something that must have cost somebody 50 cents to make them in factory could possibly be $19. But the device itself is so far superior with my experience with Medical Alert that I'm not unhappy that it cost that much to replace.

I'm living alone now and although I don't have any medical problem there's always a danger of falling since I work out in the yard cause I have a half-acre here. A lot of my friends said as soon as I became a widow that I need to get the medical alert device, so I took their recommendation and got it. I'm very satisfied with it. I wear it on my waistband and a couple of times I've hit it against the kitchen counter, then it's gone off and they responded very quickly. I just let them know that I was okay. Originally, I was going over to Britain and I know it doesn't work out of the country. But then, I was going on a trip to New York state, although I had to cancel that, but they assured me that it works anywhere in the country. I recommend GreatCall.

We were concerned that my husband would fall or something would happen that he would need help. We got GreatCall and though my husband's experience with it has been very limited, their reps have been very helpful the two or three times that I have called so we've been very pleased with them. I have recommended them to other people.

When I go on vacation I go by myself a lot and with GreatCall I feel like if I go somewhere and something happens I can just push a button and hopefully they’ll be there to help me. I was taking a trip to Colorado by myself, driving in the mountains and stopping on some dangerous terrain. I am a senior and I felt that if I had the GreatCall medical alert device along, I would be a little more safe. I wanted to try it out there to see if it really works, but I didn’t because I don’t want to abuse my privileges. I used it one time to though to see if it actually works. Their team was very nice and even though I told them it was only a test, they still wanted to know if everything was okay.

My daughter told me I needed a medical alert device so I tried GreatCall Splash. She has fewer worries since I started wearing it, but my main problem is getting something strong enough to hold the device around my neck. I was afraid I was gonna lose the device because the one I had before fell while I was walking and got broken. But I like that if it gets wet, it's still okay. One day I hit it and they answered right away which made me feel secure.

My husband had another medical alert which I didn’t like because it was only for the house and maybe 50 feet around the house. I told him it’s no good and that if he goes and drives off, takes the dog for a walk or for a ride and something happens, he can’t even call. He says he has his cellphone. I said that he still has to punch in. He had Parkinson’s Disease and passed away in January 2015, so that’s when I made the complete change because I didn't want that. I’m very computer-oriented already, so I said that there has to be something better, something that works like a telephone and GreatCall is exactly that.

I have seizures so I needed a medical alert device and GreatCall has performed marvelously. It fits my everyday lifestyle perfectly except that some people think it's a camera. I've used it five times and they were very responsive even when I couldn't respond. I have a "please call" list and sometimes they ask to call everybody on it, sometimes they don't. Sometimes I can respond, and sometimes I can’t. I've asked them for the interval between me pushing the button, the phone ringing and me finally responding because that would tell me the time interval between me pushing the button and finally being able to talk. I’ve called twice and was unable to get that time. But when I asked for a replacement lanyard, they mailed me one.

I live alone and I'm going to be 84 in a couple of weeks. I used Life Alert before and it had the phone in the house. But when I was in the bathroom and I tested it, Life Alert took forever to answer the call. When I heard about GreatCall Splash and saw their ad with the AARP, I decided that it's the brand for me. I pushed the button to test it once. Back in January, unfortunately, my sister passed away up in Brooklyn, New York. I live in Florida and I was up there in New York, and my sister lived in an apartment building on the sixth floor in Brooklyn, New York and I pushed that button and they knew exactly where I was.

I wear the GreatCall Splash device all the time though I'm not going to call them unless I have to. I put it on like another cross but don't wear it in the shower where they say I should. I recommend it quite often.

I came home after two and a half years in a nursing home in a wheelchair and I'm still nearly stuck to that. I was beginning to progress a bit but had a setback. Getting GreatCall was more of a precautionary method because I live alone. I had used another medical alert device before I went into the nursing home but it had very limited coverage. As long as I was inside the house, I could reach someone but if I was outside, I was on my own. I talked with the team at GreatCall when I leaned over the dresser and its corner pressed on my call button and they were nice and understanding. They didn't make me feel like I was an idiot.

My mom is 90-years-old and frail but she’s a strong person and in good health for her age. Unfortunately, she fell a couple of times. She called and told me she fell, so I went over. She had stitches in two places on her forehead. We got her a GreatCall Splash device and she has it for over a year. She hasn’t had to really use it yet but everything that we’ve encountered so far has been great. We had no problems with the process of getting it, of her using it and keeping it charged. But once in a while, she'll hit it accidentally.

About a year and a half ago, I took my pill, laid back for 30 minutes and when I got up again, I fell and couldn't move. The only way I was able to get to the phone was by scooting a little bit. I had one phone that I could jerk down with a card and it took me a while to get there. I first thought, "How long can I lay here and still live?" I thought I got to do something. Since I had the surgery, I decided I need a medical alert device because I am walking today and I am standing by myself.

I’ve got a bad heart and then I also just got a divorce, so my kids said I'm not going anywhere by myself without some type of a device. My son saw GreatCall's website and thought it was the one I needed. I got and didn’t like it the first couple of days because even though I’m used to wearing a medical necklace, it is heavy. But after about four days, I was like “Where is it?”

I’m by myself and I’m 73. I’ve been having medical problems and moved to a condo where I have three different floors. I’ve seen GreatCall Splash on television so I ordered it. I stick it in my pocket and I’m not as worried about going up and down the steps. If I’m going out of town, I know that I can use it if I get lost and I’m having an emergency. I don’t have to worry about where I am and I love that part on it. It makes me feel a lot more secure of being by myself. I pushed the button a couple of times to let people know how it works because a lot of people are wanting something like this for their family but they don’t know how good this is.

I haven't had to use Splash yet and I hope I don't have to use it for emergency or anything like that. I had a hard time wearing it around my neck because it really bothered me and my daughter just kept after me until I thought I better wear it because then I would have it with me if I did fall. But if that time would happen, it would be there.

I'd recommend GreatCall Splash. It's always ready to use. The only thing I have against it is I have to charge it.

I’m partially crippled and if I fall, I can’t get up. My son wanted a GreatCall device for me and gave me one. It stays in my pocket and I carry it all day long. I’ve called them twice and they sent firemen to pick me up off the floor.

I’m 90 years old and my husband passed away about a year and a half ago and I’m all by myself. I have one neighbor on one side that fell and she laid there for two hours. She’s my age and she broke her arm. And the man behind me was going outside and he fell on his face and broke his nose and his wrist. And so I thought I'd better get an alert device for myself. I fell once in the backyard as I was watering my Plumeria trees. They’re in real big pots and I have a hose in one hand. I was watering and I saw one of the big pots fell over. So I leaned over to pick up the pot and I fell down on my back. I laid there in the sun and I don’t know how long before they came but I was sure glad I had GreatCall medical alert.

I had a stroke last March 13th, I live alone in an apartment building and I'm going to be 89 in January. Then I didn't even know I walked across the street to the hairdresser's by my niece's car and forgot that I was with her. So I had my younger friend who is my exec. look up GreatCall and the different things on the Consumer's Report. She printed out something for me and picked another one but I had seen the ads in a lot of papers about GreatCall already. I also saw them in The Parade as well as in AARP and I liked the idea that it was small. I thought that that was the best one and the price was also significant. But it took me a long time to finally go around and get it. I still use the walker in the morning and in the afternoon then in the evening before I go to bed I use that. I love it!

I may have had a panic attack or something else happened, but I knew there was no way that I was going to get out of that chair and do anything because I'd go to the floor. I didn't want to call GreatCall Splash, but my neighbor said I needed to. I had one other medical alert service before, but it didn't travel very far. On the other hand, I'm very satisfied with GreatCall. The reps were good. The only thing that wasn't good was that it took a while for the ambulance to come when it's only less than a mile away.

I got vertigo in February and I have lost my balance and I'm afraid of falling, so I wear my GreatCall Splash all the time. I have had them answer me a couple of times when I accidentally pushed it and they were spot on right then. Also, they were so pleasant about it and they even told me not to worry since I should be testing it once a month. Overall, having the GreatCall Splash device makes me feel safer and I would recommend them.

I had fallen a lot. I got a medical alert from GreatCall Splash and I use it all the time. The firemen come in my window once in a while when the alarm goes off. However, there were a couple of times when it should have gone off and it didn’t. Aside from that, the people at GreatCall have been very nice.

I live alone and I have some medical issues that sometimes I might not be able to get help with. TheGreatCall Splash device was a backup safety net. My son and daughter-in-law bought the unit for me and I set it up on the internet. I wear it all the time. With it, I don't feel as concerned if something should happen and I fall and or go unconscious since this thing would go off.

Having GreatCall Splash makes me feel safer. I live by myself and I've fallen in the shower, and if that happens again, I can use it to get help. I haven't had to use it yet but it’s been fine.

My experience with Splash has been very good and I would recommend them.

My mom has never had an emergency but has triggered the Splash device accidentally and they came right on so it's good.

I live by myself and I'm 89 years old, so got a medical alert device from GreatCall Splash, and I put in my pocket and keep it with me during the day. I haven't had to use it yet to call for help. I lost my alert device one time while I was sitting in my recliner. But I knew that it would have to be in the house someplace, so I used my phone and called GreatCall. Some man answered and tried to help me. He had me going out in the yard. I walked over by my fence and he made my alert device ring, but I couldn't hear it there. Then he had me go out on the street in front of my house. Their attempt to find my alert device was not successful. So then, my son came over and called GreatCall, and some woman helped him. He made the alert device ring, and we found out that it was somewhere in the corner where the recliner was. He ended up having to turn the recliner upside down and inside out, but he finally found it.

I've been sick a lot lately, so my daughter thought that I need an alert device so she bought the GreatCall Splash for me. It fits my lifestyle, but it's heavy to wear around my neck. Other than that, I am happy with my experience with it.

My family and I count on my GreatCall Splash device quite a bit because I've had open heart surgery nine months ago. I've had it since I got out of the cardiac rehab program last January and I feel safer having it when I'm out doing my evening walk or when I'm very far away from home, especially once I started driving. It just felt better having it with me. However, I'm having trouble with it not staying charged for about a month now. So I called them and the representative told me to just push the button on the side of the device, hold it for a certain number of seconds and then it would start up again. That works for a couple of hours, but it's going out again, so I'll have to call them again.

Had a good experience with GreatCall Splash. I’m handicapped, I have seizures, I can’t walk and I fall down. In addition, I have bladder issue, thyroid, blood pressure, nerve and brain damage. So if I go down, I just have to hit that button quick. There was a time when I set the alarm off but I didn’t mean to so I was able to interact with their reps. But something happened before however, after I got my senses back together, I should have mashed the thing and called for help but I didn’t want to make it hard on the people so as soon as I got my senses back and I saw that I'm not bleeding, I kind of write it off.

My wife passed away a year ago, and I live on my own. My family is not that close by. I was planning on a trip to Florida for several months, so I thought it might be a good idea to get some protection just in case. I got a GreatCall Splash device due to its mobility and no matter where I'll be, they would know where I am with its GPS ability. Also, they had pretty high marks when I checked 10 different ones.

After trying to get my Lively Wearable activated for almost 3 weeks and talking to about 5 different people, I was fortunate to get Chris ** on the customer service line. He went above and beyond the call of duty being helpful. After numerous times of trying different things to get the activation going, we finally had success today. He called me back just as he said he would after consulting with the technical support people. He was very patient and knowledgeable. Just want to acknowledge Chris ** for his tremendous help and let his supervisors and all management know how lucky they are to have such a dedicated employee. Thanks Chris!!

I’m very happy with my GreatCall Splash. I know it’s there and it’s all that’s important.

My family felt I should get a medical alert device after I fell. I got GreatCall since I though it's a really good deal. I don't have to have special phones in the house with all that wiring and it does other things as well. If there's a fire, they'll call a fireman when the button is hit. If I need a policeman, they will call them as well. If I get lost, they'll get me home. If I would fall in the parking lot, I could get help. The device also has great battery life. Their representatives have been very nice. Sometimes I hit the button just to see if it's still alive and the representatives say they're there. I did have a little fall and I appreciated their prompt response. They are well-trained people, positive and helpful. I live alone so I feel more confident having the device in my pocket.

I live by myself and I have diabetes. I wanted to be sure that I had some means to contact emergency if I needed them so I got the GreatCall Splash medical alert device. I used another device before but I really couldn't afford it plus it didn't go all over the country with me, unlike GreatCall Splash. I usually have the device in my pocket and it's very convenient. I feel more confident now that I have the device. I have told my friends about it and I hope they'll get one too because I worry about them and their safety.

I have taken a few spills here and there but I was always with family when that happened. Everybody decided I needed to get something 'cause I'm home by myself all the time. My dogs can't do much for me so I have to have some communication device. Also, all my friends were getting a medical alert device so I got one for myself as well. The young man from GreatCall Splash who helped me was wonderful. Recently, I added the fall protection feature on it. I don't carry the device on myself when I'm home but if I go out, then I put it in a pocket. It's convenient and it's nice to know that I have it.

I took a very bad fall on June 28th, a year ago and I couldn't get to a phone. I shattered my hip and thigh and I was 10 weeks in a rehab facility and in an assisted living. The only thing my kids wanted for me before I left the facility was that I get something. I put them on the research because they're better at it than I am and they unanimously recommended GreatCall Splash, and before I left the facility, I had it.

My wife passed away while I wasn't home, and I didn't like the experience. So I was worried about my children finding me dead because I live alone. Having the device gives peace of mind about my children. GreatCall was quick to respond once the button was pressed, because when I had it in my pocket and I bumped against something, I heard a voice and then I figured out what it was. When I'm at home, I wear it around my neck and the majority of the times when I'm out, I put in my pocket. I like the size of the device.

The medical alert device that I had before was too expensive, plus GreatCall Splash has more features and it is waterproof - I could take it into the shower and not worry about it breaking. I’ve got a peace of mind that I have it, and I can take it anywhere I wanna go. I enjoy it and it works fine. I call in once a month to make sure it's working and they're quick to respond. I’ve already recommended it to one of my people.

I have a bad habit of falling and I've broken bones. At my age, I'm safer with a medical alert device than I am without it. GreatCall Splash is good to have because I'll never know when I'm gonna fall. I use it everyday and it gives me more confidence. It's a little bundlesome but I can live with it. It'd be nice if they can make a smaller device that would be easier to wear.

I have some trouble walking so my wife got a GreatCall Splash for me. Their customer service reps were excellent when I was setting up my profile. I wear the device around my neck and it feels comfortable. The device fits perfectly and it's been a very favorable experience thus far.

I'm on the road a lot and I particularly like GreatCall Splash because I can have it with me if I had problems. I always wear it when I'm driving so it's very helpful. If I'm working outside, many times, I put it on my wrist. But if I'm traveling, it's around my neck or in my purse, close at hand. I'm glad I've got the device and I've enjoyed it although it's a little too big and it does fall off of that little metal wrist thing that I bought but it's better than nothing. As I get older and get more prone to falling, I will add the fall detection too.

Two doctors and three friends recommended that I get a medical alert device. Having the GreatCall Splash gives me peace of mind when I go outdoors. It's comfortable and easy to wear but I don't wear it if I'm going out to a nice dinner. It doesn't fit right with my dress, so I put it in my purse.

It would have been nice if I'd had the medical alert device last year. I work in the yard a lot and fell in the yard flat on my back and nobody was around in my neighborhood home during the day. I had a chair that I was sitting in trimming some bushes and had to crawl over to get to that chair to push myself up. If I hadn't had the chair out there, I wouldn't have been able to have gotten up and I'd be lying there till somebody saw me. That convinced me that I needed something. I'm almost 86 years and a widow, and everybody's been asking me to get something.

I'm dizzy at times so I got a GreatCall Splash medical alert device. I wear it all the time around my neck and it's comfortable.

Great system. The product is excellent. The service is excellent. The battery only last 6-8 hrs which is a huge problem and very inconvenient. I understand competitive products have batteries that last 24-36 hrs.

Bought for my 87 year old mother-in-law from Amazon. Item arrived and was just too large to be functional for her - she could not comfortably wear around her neck, and did not want to clip it on to her clothing. Amazon customer service was GREAT. Amazon arranged to send item back to them, even sending her a return address label since she has no computer to print one herself. I then called GreatCall to cancel her service since I had a 30 day window, and this was just day 2. I was informed by them that there would be a $10 restocking fee for the returned device, even though I did not purchase the item from them. I wonder what their customer service would be like if I really needed something?

I live by myself a lot. I had a couple of falls and I figured I needed to have something for protection just in case. I feel confident with GreatCall Splash. It just hangs around my neck and I don't even know it's there most of the time. I have used it twice and got immediate response. It gives me peace of mind knowing that it is there if I need it.

I had two hip replacements and one of my hips has been displaced six times. My grandson thought that I should have a medical alert device, so he went ahead and got GreatCall Splash for me. Most of the time, I feel like I don't even need it since I carry my cellphone with me all the time. I don't know exactly how it works. I've used it a couple of times in the shower and as far as wearing it all the time is concerned, I won't do it because it's too big and it's cumbersome. As it is, I already have oxygen in the hose going, so I don't need something else hanging on me.

I'm still mobile and have my iPhone, but I figured that I should have a medical alert device because I wouldn't be able to dial with my cellphone if I had a bad cramp. I have a pacemaker and I can't wear Greatcall as a necklace, so I carry it in my pocket instead. I went to Aruba for a week and knew it probably wouldn't work there. So I called them to ask what I should do with it and they said to leave it in the charger which I did.

I live alone and have medical problems. I would hate to fall and not notify somebody. I'm worried about falling because three years ago, I fell. My son and my brother have passed away and I'm the end of the line, so I've got to take care of myself. One of my friends stopped by, and she had a GreatCall Splash and showed me how it worked. That's when I called them and I got it right away. Their people have been very helpful and I appreciate that. I try to remember to put the device on every day. It takes a great deal of pressure off of me, and I've got people that are supposed to check on me every so often. I take my cell phone with me too. It's great and I'm happy with it.

I didn't have any problems but I'm 93 now and I thought that I might have problems ahead so I got GreatCall Splash medical alert device. I feel safer now, more confident, and not have to worry. I have the alert on my pocket or wear it on my wrist. For a while, I had to be aware to have it with me but I've gotten so used to having it that it's just routine. The little thing that flips on the back got sprung and when I would wear it on my wrist wide, it would fall off so I've got some of those little nip things to put on and they have a little zipper pocket so that keeps it secure. I'm very satisfied and I would recommend GreatCall to a friend.

I have Agent Orange all over my body so GreatCall would be a nice device to have when I'm out and about. I felt a little better knowing that I got it with me. It's a good service and I recommended it to a lot of people.

I'm a widow, 87 years old and living alone. My family insisted that I have something and one of them did some research and came up with this GreatCall Splash medical alert device. I like it because I can put it in my pocket and go walking and don't have to worry about getting to a telephone to call. I don't like to wear it around my neck as it's too bulky. The GreatCall Splash team have always been great whenever I accidentally hit the button. They answer right away. Also, I was out at the farm which is about 130 miles from here and accidentally bumped the device on the corner and they answered immediately so I know it works elsewhere. Overall, I've been pleased with the device and have spread word about it.

I live alone and I collapsed because of a low amount of oxygen in my blood. I laid for about 45 minutes before anybody found me. I was hospitalized, and next day they told me if I’d laid all night, I would’ve been dead in the morning. So I got GreatCall Splash Medical Alert and, needless to say, it’s around my neck all the time. I operate normally and don’t ever have to worry because I’ve got the device on me. Their reps have all been excellent. I had a situation before where the light was red instead of green and I called them and they had me reboot it and it’s fine afterwards.

I like GreatCall Splash. I'm alone and up in years and my family feels that I need something. With the device, I feel that wherever I go, I know I have a buddy with me. I just wear it and forget that I have it on and in case I need it, it's there.

I wear the GreatCall device around my neck everyday. My experience has been good so far, except that, the cord keeps coming apart. I keep having to stick it back together. I called them and they sent me a new one but it happened again.

I’m almost 90 years old and I live alone. My children were afraid that I would fall and thought I need a medical alert. I got the GreatCall Splash and I wear it around my neck. I feel more secure and I feel good that I have it. I’ve been real happy with it. A have a friend who had another kind of medical alert before but it was only good around the house. If she goes out to get her mail and falls, it wouldn’t help her. So I said mine got the fall button and recommended the GreatCall. She did take it and she also likes it.

My son and my daughter gave me a GreatCall Splash and they take care of paying for it. They thought it was time I have something because I'm gonna be 87 next week and I live in an apartment by myself. The device works fine. Sometimes I just have it lying where I can reach it. But most of the time, I have it around my neck. I’m glad I have it and fortunately, I’ve never had to use it yet.

I know that GreatCall helps people. My sister was wearing one when she fell and was able to get the proper care that she lived for three more years without any problem. My two sons decided that I should have something and I told them GreatCall might work which led us to get one. I wear it around my neck although it doesn't really fit me. It should have been a smaller version of it.

I fell a couple of years ago and my daughter insisted that I should have a medical alert device. I'm 92 years old and I live alone. I've been fortunate that I haven't had to use my GreatCall Splash medical device yet, but I'm happy to have it. I wear it all the time around my neck in case I would need it. It's like wearing a necklace, and it's comfortable. I definitely would recommend them. In fact, one of my friends have one.

The GreatCall Splash was originally for my wife who has COPD but she never got to use it because she had a fall before we got it and died two months later. So now, I have been wearing it. It gives me confidence. It's cheaper, it goes everywhere I go and it says where I am. It's only 15 bucks plus tax. I wear it around the house and I've been very satisfied with it. The police had told me that if I fall here in the house and they don't have the key that they can get to, the only way they can get it in is to break in but if I'm not in horrible pain, I can tell the cops who would call to call the two local people who has the key to the house.

I’ve got MS and I’m in a wheelchair 24/7. GreatCall made me feel comfortable, however, I don't use it anymore. Another thing was, the battery will charge for 36 hours and it wouldn’t even work for four hours sometimes. Other than that, I recommended it to other friends.

I have been having a lot of dizzy spells and I don't have a car so I usually travel by bus. Also, I’m beginning to become a diabetic and I started having trouble with my hip. As a matter of fact, I’m going to have a complete hip replacement done at the end of the month. I didn’t think of having a medical alert service until I started having these problems so I decided to get GreatCall Splash. I carry it and usually have it with me except when I shower.

About a little more than a year ago, I fell in my home and broke my lower leg. After that, I thought I'd better get myself one of those medical alert things. I found several different ones to look at and I called and got information about one of them. The price was totally out of this world so I didn't want it. Then a friend told me about GreatCall and that I could pick it up at Walmart. I didn’t have to order it, so I gave it a try. Rather than wearing the device around my neck out in public, I hang it on the knob of my vanity in my bathroom since it's the handiest place. Since a lot of falls happen in the bathroom, I wanted it in there. It’s on a cord and it hangs down about six inches off the floor. That way, if I should fall, it will be close to the floor. Overall, I'm another satisfied customer.

I had 15 strokes so I got a Great Call Splash Medical Alert device. My aunt handled most of it with them. It's working and their reps were fine.

I needed a medical device because I kept falling. I've been using GreatCall for about six months now.

A few years back, about 15 minutes after my husband had gone to work, I fell on the floor and broke my femur. Nobody could hear me and I laid there for about five hours until my husband got back home. I was taken to the hospital and ever since then, I said I'm not gonna be by myself and not have any help. I used another medical alert before but when I compared it with GreatCall, I thought GreatCall was a better fit for me because I could take it outside, go anywhere and still have the ability to contact somebody if I need them. Also, it has a better price. I haven't had to use it yet but two weeks ago, I had a hit and run car accident and my car was totaled and I was in a daze when it happened. They took me straight to the hospital. Luckily, I wasn't hurt badly but must stay in the hospital. When I thought about it I said thank goodness I had my device in case I would have needed it.

I am 86 and I live in senior housing but sometimes people have had problems and it was two or three days before they are found in their apartments because people don't come and check on us every day. We do have a pull cord in our bedroom and the living room but my concern is if I fall and can't get to the pull the cord. So I got a GreatCall device that I wear around my neck. My children who are out of state and I have much more peace of mind since I had it. One time I realized how sensitive the device was because I was at the foot of my bed, tossed it up with the head of the bed before I put in the cradle, set the device off and GreatCall called me. The people I spoke with were very polite and courteous. I've paid extra for the fall part of the device but it's very well worth it. I do tell everybody I know that I have GreatCall and I give them information if in case they want to call them too.

I live alone and I have a dizziness and weakness in my legs so the fear of falling just walking to the mailbox everyday was getting greater and greater. I know I have caregivers under me but sometimes there's no time to look up a phone number to call. Also, I go places with my business and with my family and I wanted something that doesn't lock me with the little thing that they have that can alert the host. So when I read about GreatCall Splash, it was just what I wanted so I got one. I use it in my pocket and I love it that way. I have good confidence with it because when I go out of town, they have my information.

I live alone and with GreatCall Splash, I feel completely safe when I leave the house or anytime I'm in the house. I know there's somebody on the other end that can help. One time my device was upside down, and they immediately called me to see if everything was all right.

I had health problems so my daughter got me a GreatCall Splash Medical Alert device. I wear it around my neck and it works fine. It's easy to wear and comfortable.

I had a medical alert device that had to be attached to the phone and there were four different devices that had to be tested once every month. It was portable and there was a GPS but there was that base telephone. So I had all these equipment around and it's driving me crazy so I decided to get the GreatCall device. It goes anywhere with me and doesn't have to have a lot of equipment.

I feel good having GreatCall Splash around, knowing that I could call somebody instantly.

My husband kept falling and we were worried that he might fall while I'm not around so we got him a medical alert device. He had Life Alert before but couldn't go anywhere to use it. It didn't have any GPS on it and was only for home. But since using GreatCall Splash, he feels safer and is more apt to go out by himself on his wheelchair when he takes his little dog out. Before he wouldn’t do it. He loves his GreatCall device. Also their team has been really good and they live up to their name. I got them linked up to my cellphone. I had some issues with following the link and had to do some things so I called them and they knew exactly what I needed. If I have a question, I'd give them a call.

I live alone and I go out walking a lot. Since my kids don’t live near me, they thought that I should have a medical alert so that I could have something that I could take with me and that I didn’t have to stay by the house all the time. I do have bad knees and they thought it’s a good idea. They did a lot of researching and we came up with GreatCall Splash Medical Alert. I feel more secure now when I go out walking even when I’m a good many blocks from home. I like it because it’s mobile and I can go any place with it. The device is a little big but you can expect that because it has so many features, but otherwise, it just fits right in

GreatCall is very good to have. I live with my daughter and her husband and whenever I’m alone in the house, I wear it. When they’re here, I usually just have it next to me. It’s given them a lot of peace about me being alright because I have a heart condition. Sometimes I almost feel I don’t need it, but it’s worth it. It works beautifully and I love the whole setup. I haven’t had to use it but it’s good to know what will happen if I do have an emergency. It's wonderful and I’m happy that I have it if I happen to need help.

I had a major operation then I went through dialysis. I was very weak and I couldn’t drive. My wife’s a teacher so she isn’t here during the daytime and for a while, I had a nurse that took care of me. It got to a point where my wife said she'd feel more secure if I have something that I can press a button and get some help and so we got a GreatCall Splash. GreatCall makes me more confident than my wife. She likes the link wherein she can check up on me and see when I leave and come back in the house. The only thing that I don't like is the rope to hang the device around the neck. GreatCall should have something adjustable because for instance when I drive, I have to move it over to the side so the seatbelt doesn’t hit where the button is.

My wife and my son both said that I should have a medical alert device with my age, so I got one from GreatCall. One time, I neglected to get it charged enough and they called my son. And he said, “How come it isn't charged up?” I said, “I forgot to put it on the cradle.” They also called him one time because they weren't getting the right signal and were wondering if something went wrong. And he checked with me to make sure I was okay. But otherwise, it's been fine. I keep it on me all the time except overnight. I've shown it to a lot of people and they said, “Oh, I've heard of those,” and I made them aware of the fact that I had one. And I said, “I use it all the time.” I'm 88 now, and anybody who gets up near my age or over should have one.

I am 71 now and a home dialysis patient. A lot of times, I'm home by myself so I've been wanting to get an alert system. Having a GreatCall device definitely makes me feel safer because I know that I can get help just by pushing the button. I wear it on a lanyard around my neck so I have the fall protection. It took a little getting used to because it is a little extra weight but now, it's not a problem at all. When I go to bed at night, I put it in the cradle, so it gets charged and when I wake up in the morning, I put it back on again. On the other hand, I notice that it keeps dropping signal. The green light will turn to red and then I have to reboot it. I don't know what's causing it because everything else in my house that’s on the Wi-Fi works fine. But other than that, GreatCall Splash is a great device because it's a GPS that I can go anywhere, unlike other systems, you can only be so far away from the base. I tell people about GreatCall all the time.

I had an open heart surgery and had a valve replacement and some other things and I walk around the neighborhood that's why we picked the GreatCall device over when you have the monitor in the house. I wear my device and a lot of people ask me what it is and I tell them why it's different than the others they've seen. I haven't needed to use it and I hope I never do, but it makes my daughter and son-in-law feel better. Although sometimes I go off and forget it, then I worry about it because I'm out running around town and I've realized that I don't have this and I don't have my cellphone. Their team was very helpful and friendly and when I first got it, I put it on a charger every other night, then after a while, it would go a day and a half. So I was charging it every night, but now, it usually starts beeping in the middle of the afternoon or early evening. So I thought maybe the battery needed something.

My pastor's wife got the GreatCall device for me. She got it on the internet. I wear it and if I need it, I just push the button and customer service is always there.

I'm almost 90 years old and don't walk too well. I even fell down my front stairs once and got a bruised leg, so I decided that I better have a GreatCall. I haven't had to use it for anything yet but I know it works because three or four times it's accidentally gone on. Now I know that if my legs give out, I can get some help right away. I do feel safer with it hanging around my neck even if it's a little big and clumsy. Also, everybody from GreatCall has been friendly and even when it went on accidentally, they still sounded good. So it's been a satisfactory experience.

GreatCall Splash has been invaluable when I had to use it for my friend, Jacqueline. But I wanted to cancel it since she passed away, and they talked me into possibly needing it so I signed up. I've had it for a year but I don't really need it because I'm fine and I still get around. It just sits there and I charge it every night. But when it was under my friend's name, their reps have been very helpful and friendly. The device was really a great help for her, especially during her final stages when she was in and out of the hospital three times due to hemorrhaging.

I'm glad I have GreatCall Splash. I live alone now. I have stairs, and am a diabetic and these were issues which I'm a little leery about. I've never really had the occasion to press the button yet. Sometimes, I lay down on the bed and the device signals that it's detected a fall, so it's over-vigilant. But I have fewer worries, and it also ensures my safety for my children's sake so they don't have to worry about me. The customer service people are knowledgeable and whenever there was a false alarm, they're right there, friendly and they say that it's fine and no problem. GreatCall is an insurance policy.

I'm up in years so I, along with my 2 daughters, figured that a medical alert device would be a good safety thing to have with me. Other brands go from the sidewalk to your house only, but GreatCall is like a GPS. I can go up alone, anywhere in Phoenix or anywhere if there's a reception. I've had it for nine months so I feel safer. It's like having a buddy with you, and all you have to do is press it. Also, the device lasts - I charge it up at least once every two days. I'm happy with GreatCall.

I live by myself so I decided to get the GreatCall Splash medical alert device. I feel a bit safer having it. I usually keep the device in my pocket since I don't like it around my neck as it's too long. I'm short so it comes down almost to my belly button. I've never called for an emergency, but I've called them when a little thing broke off the end. Their people were very polite and kind, and they sent the device right away. I also call every once in a while to make sure it's still working, like the other day when I dropped the device on a ceramic tile floor. I've had a very positive experience with GreatCall Splash and I have already recommended it to some people.

I am diabetic and have a heart problem. About a year ago, I had fallen outside and broke both my wrists. I had a terrible time trying to get up off the ground because I couldn't push up. Also, I lost my husband and since I live alone the kids thought I should get the medical alert. I like my GreatCall very much and I'm very satisfied with their service. I have fewer worries because GreatCall answers right away. They're very, very, very prompt. However, the device is a little big and it shows through some of my summer clothes including the black cord when I wear bigger necks. It doesn't conceal quite as good. In the winter, you don't notice it so much because you wear sweatshirts and heavier top. I had bought a silver chain and it was heavy. I put it on one time, and then someone told me that I shouldn't do that. But if the device was on a chain, it would look like I have another necklace on.

I have neuropathy and arthritis in my feet and it makes me very unstable so I fall. I was reading about GreatCall Splash and I called and asked them a lot of questions. One of my good friends came and helped me look it up on the computer. My friends were happier than I was and it went a distance when I tested it - it wasn't true that I couldn't get a hold of somebody if I was five miles from home. It made me feel more relaxed that if I fell and I was by myself, I could have help immediately. Their team has been very good. They were friendly and knowledgeable. A couple of weeks ago, when I get home I take it off my neck and I throw it on my chair, and then I go take my clothes off or whatever I have to. I forgot about them one night and all of a sudden, I hear this little voice saying, "Ruth? Ruth? Are you there? Are you alright?" I activated it by sitting on it. I said, "No, I'm fine. Thank you."

Being 75 years old and living alone is the main reason I got GreatCall Splash, and now I'm less concerned especially about taking a shower and falling. I also do yard mowing in a lot of areas where I would not be seen from people passing on the road, and with the device, I feel I have extra protection with me. the GreatCall team is very friendly and knowledgeable the times I've called them.

I'm getting older and my kids worry about me since I live alone, although I have a wonderful neighborhood. I had another medical alert device several years ago but I kept setting it off because I forgot to shut it off when I went out. I had to be able to get close to the receiver and yell at it so I had done away with it. My children were happy when I said I got the GreatCall and they can quit worrying about me now. Luckily, I haven't had to use it yet but I know it works because a couple of times I have shoved the device in my purse without paying attention, it came on. I've recommended GreatCall to people and I know one of my friends has one too. The device is more handy than other device that people can't use when they go outside of their home.

I'm 75 years old. I live alone and was concerned about the possibility of losing my balance or tripping and falling. With GreatCall Splash, I feel less worried and more independent. All of my experiences interacting with their team have been great. The device is extremely convenient to use. I put it on, wear it all the time around my neck on a lanyard, and charge it once a day. I highly recommend it to other people. I have been responsible for three other people getting GreatCall Splash. In summary, it's been excellent with them.

I’m 79 years old and I am afraid of falling. My daughter got the GreatCall Splash Medical Alert for me. I tote it in my pocket and I feel safe with it.

I got GreatCall Splash strictly for prevention to be sure that I have something since I'm a widow and I live alone. I used another medical alert service before but Splash covers things other than medical and also covers away from home, which the other one didn’t thus, I switched. My friend who recommended it to me kept it in her bra, and it was always right there where you could get it out. However, someone said something about the radiation so we put it in our pocket and the purse went through the washer. I felt better and safer when I was carrying it with me all the time instead of having it in my purse or pocket. If I can carry it in my bra and it's fine. I really feel better knowing it's there and it's closer that I can get to it than having to rummage through my purse to find it. So I would really like to carry it there if I can but I have to find out about this radiation.

I’m 83 and my husband died recently so I’m alone. My son and daughter-in-law decided that I needed to have a medical alert device. I wear the GreatCall Splash religiously. I don't like the cord that came with it but I have it on a chain which I prefer. It takes up less room under my clothes and is not quite as obvious when I have it on. I feel more confident because I’m out periodically where nobody would see me when I walk. It is nice to know that if I fall, I have access to letting somebody know of that. It is comforting to have so I’m appreciative of it. I would recommend GreatCall.

I purchased the Lively watch for my mom about a year ago. I had difficulty setting it up, and when I tried to contact customer service, it took days for them to get back to me. Now, I need to suspend her service and not have her bank account drafted any more. I have tried through the website and through leaving many voice messages to make that happen and after over a week of trying, have heard nothing back. I am going to have to file a complaint and go through mounds of paperwork with the bank to get this changed on this end. I am SO frustrated!!! It is a good concept, but I would not trust my loved one with such a horrible company. They obviously don't care!

Before having a medical alert device, I thought I'm infallible. Then I fractured my pelvic last June and I was very blessed because that day my son and my grandson were upgrading my computer when I tripped on the edge of the room. So I told my son, “I think it's time for me to get one,” and he said, “I'm gonna go get one right now, mom. Before you get home, you'd have it." I did and it's been very, very rewarding because being a widow and being by myself, it's like a security blanket. It makes me feel safe and it's really good.

We had another brand for ten years and it was time to update. I wanted one that we could talk into. We got the GreatCall for my mom because of her age, and everything has been great. It’s a good device.

At the time I took GreatCall, it was because I could use their device in the shower. That’s essential for me that I have it in the bathroom. Also when I fall, I have to have somebody pick me up. I have a scooter that I go out on. I wear the device in case something happened to me while I'm out and about. I feel much safer. If I didn’t have it, I would really be lost because I can't always reach the phone to dial 911. But I find the lanyard to be quite heavy in my clothes. I don’t like to wear it outside and I can't wear it on my arms but I like to wear it in.

I live alone and I tend to lose my balance. I've wanted a a medical alert device and GreatCall Splash was about 25% cheaper than my previous device. I don't really feel that I need it in one sense. It is 30-something bucks a month, but I got it to have as a backup in case. It's there if I need it. My sons can know where I am if I'm at any place around the country, 'cause that gives that map of location. I found out it doesn't work out of the country but that's understandable. Also, my family will know if I had any trouble because they'll get alerted too if I would need to use it. I called GreatCall to confirm that it's working. I do a test every once in a while too. The reps are very courteous and wanna make sure everything is really okay.

My son got GreatCall Splash for me because I had fallen a few times. I didn't think I'd need it, but because I'm getting older, he figured out I should have it. It's just a piece of care that I have in case I'm all by myself for a walk, in the church, visiting friends, even in the bath, and when I do go out to the yard and stay out for long or go someplace I'm not familiar with. It's convenient and it's very easy to wear. I'm glad that this is available to use so easily and I'm satisfied. I've had people that fall down and not have any help and I don't wanna be in that situation. I'm trying to get other ladies I know to have GreatCall device too so they seemed to be interested and I hope they would take advantage of that also.

My niece wanted me to have a medical alert device because I live alone and I've been having some knee problems since I had knee surgery. She got me GreatCall Splash as she had for her parents and mother-in-law and she pays for it. I'm just annoyed with it because it's so big. And if the lanyard were a little bit longer, it would fit a little bit lower to tuck into my bra. It's just kind of annoying to me but I've learned to tolerate it. The GreatCall representative was helpful when we've set it up, and I know that help is there in case I fall.

My medication sometimes makes me lightheaded, I live alone, and at my age my family thought I should have a medical alert device, so I went with GreatCall Splash. It has been good overall. I called the GreatCall team and whatever my question was, such as something about when I was traveling, they explained. It is easy to use. When I get up, I put my medical alert device around my neck, and then take it off when I go to bed.

My husband's experience with GreatCall Splash has been very good. He has called them a couple of times just to make sure the medical alert works. Then he called one other time that something wasn't blinking, and it was fixed. He's had peace of mind since having it and he likes it very much.

GreatCall Splash is very comfortable and convenient. In fact, I wear it all the time. I don’t worry at night because I charge its battery when I go to bed. And I have another unit on me all the time, which works on the telephone line. With my medical alert, I feel more independent and have fewer worries. It seems to be what I need and it’s a great consolation to me that it’s available. I purchased the deluxe version of the system and when I activated it, several pieces didn’t come with it, but they supplied them to me free of charge. So I really liked that idea. They're prompt, convenient, comforting, available and able to work everywhere. Their team was very friendly, too.

I had some by-pass heart pains, but ever since I started using GreatCall, I feel more confident. It is convenient to have. I've tested the device with their team a couple of times, and they were courteous and made sure everything's working properly.

I live alone and I've been known to climb towers and run boats. These are two things that are not real safe when living alone so I got a GreatCall Splash Medical Alert. However, I don’t even know if it works. I haven't used it in months and it just sits on the nightstand. I only put it on when I'm going to be climbing a hundred foot tower or if I'm taking the boat out and there's nobody around with me.

I have trouble with neuropathy. When I'm walking by myself, I wanted something that I could get help with. I went with GreatCall Splash as I have friends using it and have seen it advertised on TV. I wear the device around my neck and it has done what it’s supposed to do and makes my wife feel better when I'm out by myself. That's the purpose we got it for. It’s also useful whether we’re at our home in Florida or at our home in North Carolina because I can walk by myself. In addition, when I've accidentally put the device down too hard and they thought I'd fallen, the GreatCall team was very quick to respond.

The fee rate of GreatCall Splash is great but I had a fall right in a parking lot after I got it and it didn't connect. It didn’t activate the fall detection algorithm, so I was a little bit disappointed in that. It wasn’t anything serious, but I was a little concerned. And then I had another experience where I was bending over and trying to clean something. Since GreatCall was hanging around my neck, I whipped it around to the back of my neck so it wouldn't get wet or dirty, and it activated the fall detector. The real fall wasn’t detected but the non-fall was detected. I just hope that it works when I really need it. I still keep my old medical alert device because it's only good at home and it's available 24/7, and I like to have something with me during the night while I'm charging the Splash.

My wife has AFib and had to have ablation and we have to watch her heart. She might have a need to call someone if she's alone, so I got her a GreatCall Splash device. Her device has a capability of calling me wherever I am through my cell phone immediately when she pushed a button. It also calls the emergency people that are monitoring the system and it also has the ability to directly call 911. The GreatCall Splash customer service reps were helpful. They provided us with guidance by setting the unit up and we forwarded all the information and medical history that my wife has via fax and they have that all on file.

I'm down in Georgia away from my family, and my husband passed away. My daughter and son-in-law did not want me down here alone because I go walking on a path down here. I also have diabetes and a couple of medical problems. Because of these, I decided to have myself a medical alert device. I got mine from GreatCall Splash and I put it on after I get dressed in the morning before I go for a walk. I have no problem with it and I really like it. It's comfortable and I find it easy to use. I feel good having it because I do feel safer when I'm out and about by myself.

I have multiple myeloma. I was weak and I don't have very good balance because I also have neuropathy. And then in November, I had a freaky accident and broke all the bones in my right ankle and my left kneecap is still broken. They did two surgeries but couldn't repair it, so I have to use a walker all the time. I haven't fallen in quite some time, but I have a tendency to fall and my husband, Ron, doesn't want me to be down in the basement by myself when he's not around, so I bought the GreatCall device.

I passed out at home and they diagnosed me with atrial fibrillation. Because of that, I felt the need for a medical alert device and found GreatCall Splash. The team has been very good to me and I really appreciate them. I’m still having a lot of health issues and my blood pressure is staying up high, so I’m just glad I’ve got the device. However, I’ve noticed recently that it does not stay charged for a whole day. It didn’t use to do that, but now at 6:00 in the afternoon I need to recharge it again. But, I appreciate the fact that sometimes when I accidentally push it, I have the option of at least being able to push it again to cancel it. I feel safer having GreatCall and I’ve recommended them to several people.

My children gave me the GreatCall and I’m very happy with it. It’s very well thought out and I’m very comfortable having it in my pocket. I feel safer.

I had fallen a couple times, and my daughter said, “I think you need a medical alert device.” Even the doctor said so. Being at my age, they figured I should have something to be safe because I live alone. I do feel safer with GreatCall and have no worries, so I'm very happy with it. Their team is very friendly and courteous. They're always checking on you if something happens. Sometimes my button gets pushed accidentally, and they're calling and wanting to know if everything is right. However, the device is not as convenient as I thought. I don’t wear it. I don’t like the flashing light around my neck. I carry it with me in my purse because it's too big and heavy. Otherwise, it's a good device and I'm very satisfied with it.

I am very pleased to have GreatCall Splash. I wear it everyday and feel more safe with it. It's easy to use and I haven't had any problems with it at all.

My husband has health issues. Four years ago, we had gotten a different kind of medical alert device which didn't have the distance. You had to be close to the base and that did not work for us at all. With GreatCall, it doesn't matter where he is and he can get help right away because it has a GPS. If I'm not with him and I'm out running errands, he always has access to help. He's fallen a couple of times and when we called GreatCall, they were very helpful and got someone to us right away. GreatCall is a security for us.

I became a widow so I got a GreatCall medical alert device. I once called the people at GreatCall to ask a question and they're fine and I’m happy with them. My device is a little bulky for me. It's big and thick so I have trouble disguising it. That’s the problem I have, but other than that, I've had a good experience. In fact, I have recommended it to a friend who also got it.

My mother trips and falls, and then she can’t get up. I got her a GreatCall Splash and now I have fewer worries because when I leave town for a day or two, I know that even if she falls, she’ll have someone to help her get up. It has already happened once and GreatCall Splash was really nice. They sent help and helped her up. Their response was very quick. She loved them. What she liked about it was she told them not to come in lights and sirens because it wasn’t that important. She didn’t want to get embarrassed by our neighbors. They listened and conveyed that message to the fire department who didn’t come with lights and sirens. I’ve already recommended GreatCall Splash to several friends.

I'm at a high risk for falls because I've had both knees replaced and I've got bad arthritis in my feet. I fell and ended up in an emergency room five times in eight months. Also, my husband passed away this year so I'm alone. I have followed John Walsh ever since his child died, and I know he would not be backing GreatCall if it wasn't good. I also talked with seniors who were over 80 that I knew because I knew what they had been through and they ended up with GreatCall. So that's all I needed to hear and ended up getting one for myself as well. Everybody in GreatCall could not have been more helpful in the beginning if I pushed it to make sure I knew what I was doing and how it was going to respond. It was fantastic and could not have been better. I'm so glad I chose GreatCall initially.

I have a daughter that's developmentally delayed and she started public school. There has been some bullying going on and someone threatened to "take her down". She's short and vulnerable and I needed to have some protection with her so I got the GreatCall Splash. She wears it every day to school. It's right on her lanyard with her school ID card and when she comes home, she can take it off. I'm constantly saying, "if you really feel threatened, then you hit the button". It's been comforting for me and my daughter to know that she can hit that button if there was a problem.

We bought GreatCall for my aunt because she’s old and lives by herself and took a spill at one time. Verizon has a stronger cell signal here and with GreatCall being with Verizon is another reason we went with them. She’s always been pretty independent so this is just for my peace of mind. If she’s alone and did take a spill or needed something, then she could get help. I love how it’s linked to my telephone, so I know when she’s up and about or if anything’s going on. It’s comfortable and convenient and we're very happy with it.

GreatCall Splash is an excellent device. My mother is prone to falling so I gave one to her for convenience and it has GPS that would allow me to locate her when she went out of the house. She wears it all day, every day. In addition, the GreatCall reps have been excellent. My only issue with it is the delay in tracking her as it takes an hour for the GPS to update, but I'm not complaining.

I fell down a few times, and my wife wants to know about it so she chose to get the GreatCall Splash medical alert device for me. The first time the alert somehow got set off, I just got a phone call. The second time however, a fire truck and four firemen showed up at the house, ready to break the door down to get in. Fortunately, I stopped them. Hence, I've got to work to be more careful with the device. I've never worn a necklace before, so it's the first time I've had something hanging around my neck, but it's comfortable wearing the device nevertheless. Their team of people was also very polite, nice, and right-on-the-ball based from my interaction with them. It's been a very good experience and I have recommended GreatCall to others.

I'm getting older, and GreatCall is something that I did for myself. I went on the internet and searched around. All the alarm companies were way too expensive, but in GreatCall's case, it seemed reasonable. I used to wear it on a lanyard with the little clip, but it came apart a couple of times. So I inserted a little piece of plastic behind the belt clip, right on top where I put a key ring device, to secure it and so it doesn't come off very easily.

My husband and I have both used the GreatCall Splash. My husband has Parkinson's and falls, so he needs to have the device wherever he is and makes sure that it connects so that he can call for help. We've mostly used it at home but we have also used the device in parking lots and other fun places. I used it once too when my husband was in the nursing home and I realized I was scared being alone at home. Unfortunately, there are a few areas we got to where it doesn't get signal. But that's a cell phone issue, not GreatCall's. We have recommended this device to friends.

I'm old and occasionally alone. My children were concerned and thought that I need to have something in case of an emergency so I got GreatCall. However, I haven’t used it that much. I like the fact that it wasn’t tied to a phone in the house, that it had GPS and I could take it with me any place I went. Unlike the one I tried previously wherein it was tied to my home phone, if I was someplace else and I went down, it would do me no good. GreatCall is heavier than I thought and I am irritated by things hanging around my neck. I just stick it in my pocket and figure if I'm gonna be some place and fall, I'll hit the button.

I have heart, back and lung issues and I frequently fall, so I got a GreatCall Splash device. Their staff are very friendly and I've had pretty good interactions with them. We have used the device a few times and having it gives me peace of mind. I just wish I could wear it around my neck, but I cannot because I have a pacemaker, so I just keep the device in my pocket. When I travel, I know it's there if I need something, and I know that when I push that button, someone's going to be on the other end.

I'm 92-years old living alone and my kids thought they'd feel better if I had a medical alert device. We got the GreatCall Splash device but I've not had to use it yet. Nevertheless, now that I have the device, which we call 'trackers', my kids don't worry about me since they know where I am. I tried to get my sister get a Splash device as well.

One time when I was putting away things from my dishwasher, the knife had fallen and I have difficulty getting down - I have neuropathy in my hands, feet and legs. I also live alone and am going to be 95 this week-- I used my walker but I didn't have the brakes on. I went from one end of my kitchen to the other, then the walker went over on top of me and I ended up in my emergency room. That's what made my friend decide that I needed GreatCall, and it really has come in handy - I've been stubborn thinking that I can take care of myself.

I have heart problems and diabetes, and had a stroke. My wife works so I have to have something available in case of emergencies. Now we have fewer worries because of GreatCall. I haven't had to use it very much, but I did hit the button by mistake a couple of times and they called to ask me if I was okay. Customer service has been very good in answering and answers right away.

I have a heart condition and I'm also a diabetic. I live by myself as well so my children said that I should get a medical alert device. GreatCall is a great thing to have especially when one has problems like I do. All of I have to do is press the button and somebody is there. I haven't had to use it yet but I keep it with me all the time. I wear it everyday. When I'm at the house and lying down, I have it on my pillow. I'm very satisfied with it and I would recommend it.

I had a different medical alert device but it didn’t cover the area that I needed to have covered. I don’t stay in my house all the time and the device I had was good for only 600 feet from the little box that they sent me. They didn’t have anything any better so I sent it back to them. I watched TV and I saw the ad for GreatCall Splash and went with it. I got the GreatCall by itself at first and then I called and asked if they had any device that if I fell and couldn’t push the little button, it would work. They sent me the fall detector. I have that and my GreatCall device is hanging around my neck. So far, I’m happy with the device. I wear it all the time except at night. I have recommended GreatCall to a friend and he ordered it. We're supposed to get $25 each, but we haven’t received our money.

My experience with GreatCall Splash is nothing but good. I always have my device on me or somewhere near me. Though I’ve never used it, GreatCall has been efficient and everything’s fine.

I am very happy with my GreatCall Splash. I feel so secure because the other one that I had used to call, “Emergency! Emergency!” But then if I went out, nothing happened. With this one, I carry it with me all the time. I wear it because I am all alone. My husband died a year ago and my nephews live far away. When I’m walking to the cemetery and somebody is following me who I don’t know, I can call. I also tried the device out of my town. I was visiting a friend who is alone and I wanted to show her. I pressed the button and I said, “I’m just testing it.” They tell me, “Yes. If you don’t need anything, don’t worry. You can test it whenever you want to.” My friend said she'll perhaps get one. I’m trying to tell everybody to take one because I love it. Everybody there is so helpful and friendly. I feel very comfortable.

There were some days that I’m weak and there were some days that I’m strong, and so I needed a medical alert device. I used one and I wasn’t happy with it then I got GreatCall Splash. My granddaughter told me how to check it. I'd push once and then I'd push again and the call is canceled. But evidently, it didn’t cancel because someone from GreatCall called me on the phone to see if I was all right. It worked out fine and I haven’t had any emergency.

All my life I have been a faller and because I had spine surgery and came out of the hospital not being able to walk, I got myself GreatCall. It's been good in the two times I've used it within the first year of having it. Both times I appreciated the person who responded asking me if I wanted him to stay on the line until help came. I could hear him clearly and it was a good experience. I won't give up GreatCall now. In fact, I was talking with my caregiver who recently had a heart attack and wanted to know about GreatCall since people told her that she needed to get one of these devices.

I'm 85 and I have had one fall where I fractured my knee and everybody kept telling me that I have to get a lifeline. So my daughter and I looked around for one and we saw GreatCall. I haven't really used it but I'm very pleased with it. I have set it off twice by accident. But now, I wear it back to front so that the button is against me and I won't set it off. Because before, I would sit down at a table and I'd set it off and I would lean over my sink and I set it off accidentally. But I’m well with it and I’ve had no complaints about it. I would certainly recommend it to anybody because it is very good.

My husband passed away and I have MS so I feel safer and more independent having a medical alert device. I've had friends use different companies and the one that got the most positive feedback was the one who had a GreatCall. Iwould like the device if it was a little bit smaller but I keep it on a lanyard around my neck. Their customer service team is quite good and I've had very positive experiences with them, even the one time I called accidentally. They have extremely pleasant staff that are very good at keeping people calm. I've turned at least one person onto GreatCall.

I am of old age so my relatives wanted me to use GreatCall Splash. I walk around the house and I also sleep while wearing the device. I’m aware that they’ve been in business for many years. I went around asking people questions about them and had not heard any negative things about them.

I had a couple of heart attacks and I was using Life Alert. However, I didn't like carrying it because it was so big. We wanted to get a smaller one so we got the GreatCall device. It fits good and it's very comfortable. I can move around, go places, and do things. I'm not tied down because I'm afraid that something's going to happen and I'll get the help right away if I have a problem. I got peace of mind. However, whenever I take the device off or get it out of my pocket and I touch it, it goes off. A couple of times, I had to call the reps back and tell them I was okay. I'm trying to put it somewhere where I won't be bumping up against it. Other than that, I like the GreatCall device. My wife is always worried so she makes sure that I got the device with me when I leave the house.

I live alone and I have medical problems so I got the GreatCall medical alert device. I put it in my pocket and I feel safer since having it. The team has answered promptly during the false alarms that I've had.

The experience I had the first month was learning to handle the GreatCall device gently and what it was all about. I didn't handle it carefully as I should have and I was startled when a lady asked if I was alright because I hadn’t pushed the button, unless I touched it accidentally, and it showed me that this thing does work. I was also embarrassed because both of my daughters would get a certain kind of a beep on their smartphone and would know I was out and going, but I got used to it. However, it's not always accurate because one day my daughter called and asked me what was I doing up north in Milaca about midnight.

I’m by myself and on the road a lot so I needed a medical alert device. I feel good having my GreatCall Splash device here, and fortunately, I’ve never had to use it and have a pleasant experience with them.

I'm 93 and I have bad arthritis. If I fall and I get down on my knees I can't get up alone. I don’t need help but I do need someone to lift me up to help me stand up. I haven’t broken anything, but in the retirement home where I live now, they won't do that so that’s one of the reasons I got GreatCall. They have a system here, but it only covers what's in the building and I felt if I went out to the store or some place, I needed something that would give me coverage if I were to fall on the street. I charge it every night when or before I go to bed because I wear it when I'm in bed at night. So that is once a day and it's fully charged. I see the light flashing on time and I wear it all the time. I have no reason to give it up.

My wife and I are both 86 and she suffers from mild dementia. Our children in Texas and Australia worry that something will happen to us and no one will be available to respond. We tried another medical alert system that had a range of 600 feet and a portable GPS base that we could take with us if we left our home. The system was too involved for my wife so I returned it and purchased a pair of GreatCall units that employ GPS technology...so responders know right where we are. We have tested both units and find the people monitoring the devices to be fast and efficient. We are now more secure in the knowledge that someone is available to help us in any emergency situation. The units are with us 100% of the time.

You may not receive a phone number with your area code, so you will have to dial like making a long distance call every time you make a local phone call. Such a pain! Not happy. Bought one for my Dad and he got an area code from a place over an hour away from where he lives. And the customer service person acted like this was no big deal.

I had Lifeline before and found that $42 a month was a little steep for me. I heard about GreatCall from the TV, called them up and snatched them up before they raised the price to $19 a month. The device is always with me. I wear it from the time I get up to the time I flop into bed. I was out at a conference and since I hadn't tested it outside of my apartment, I pushed it and it came on. A lady asked if I have an emergency and I said no, but I gave her my name, address, etc. I told her I'm not at my address but she said she knew and told me about my location. Holy cow! It does work! She could tell exactly where I was using the GPS. It's a great product and idea.

I live by myself and I had a friend who, unfortunately, passed away last year. He too lived by himself and we used to call and check on each other, but unfortunately, by the time I checked and the neighbors had gotten over, he was too far gone. So I took that as a good lesson that things like that can happen. That’s why I decided to get a medical alert device even though I'm still in pretty good health. I noticed that Splash was the only one that I could bring with me anywhere. I'm not tied down, and that was a real plus to me. It was also reasonably priced. So far, my experience with them has all been positive. I feel a lot more at ease having it.

I've had my back surgery, and I'm not stable on my legs like I used to be. The GreatCall Splash device fits fine in my everyday lifestyle. I was satisfied when I had to use it so it worked out great. The only one complaint that I got is that thing to hold the strap and it's broken so I don't use it anymore.

With the other brand that I had, I was visiting a doctor and I fell, and it was far away that there was no way they could find out where I was. GreatCall is much better. I definitely don’t have as many worries going to different areas. It's a very good thing to have and their support has been great.

I’m over 70 and I travel a lot and have one location I go to a lot for business with a lot of steps and stuff. I'm up there by myself and I didn’t want to fall or have an accident and not be able to get help. A friend of mine told me that somebody else she knew had gotten a GreatCall Splash, so I looked at it but there was nobody who could answer any of my questions at the store. I called GreatCall at home, and the people were very kind and helpful, and the price is a lot better. Fortunately, I haven’t had any accidents but I have called a couple of times to ask some questions and they’ve been very helpful. I’ve been happy with my device and hopefully I’ll never have to use it for an emergency. I’ve recommended it to people.

I appreciate my GreatCall Splash device. It’s convenient and comfortable. I just clip it on. The only time I’ve talked with them is if I happen to push my button by mistake and then they answer. They’re just there and I appreciate it. At the time I got it, I shopped at other companies and I liked GreatCall and it’s less expensive than others. I have recommended it to my friends. Everybody over 60 should have one of these.

I've had three heart attacks, I'm diabetic, and I have Parkinson's disease. My niece heard about GreatCall and ordered it. I find it very convenient. I've tested it a couple of times and I like the quick response. I'm quite satisfied with the device.

I had just turned 70. I'm feeling great, thank God. I feel like I'm more in my 50s, but one could feel good and could plan things, but stuff sneaks up on people. It makes sense to add that additional level of security particularly if I'm with my grandson babysitting him (I pick up my grandson from preschool several days a week) or in the car, and if something happens I've got that immediate device. I told my daughter that's what I was thinking. She loved the idea.

I was going to get a medical alert device uptown but I live on a farm and I’m not in the house a lot. I talked to my doctor about it and she said one from the town isn’t going to help me because it’s just for people in the house. I heard about what GreatCall had to offer and it made up my mind right away. I didn’t have any trouble with it and I'm real happy. The only problem I have is with the thing that holds it. But as far as the main part, it works great.

I’m 85 and I live alone and my family told me that I needed a medical alert device. I got one from GreatCall Splash. I take it with me wherever I go if my daughter isn’t with me. I also have it plugged in right next to my bed. I feel confident when I have it with me. But thank heavens I haven’t had to use it. One thing I don’t like about it is it’s so heavy so I can’t wear it around my neck. When I’m carrying it around, I try to hook it on my purse so that I have it right there with me when I’m out of the house.

I had a friend who had the GreatCall device and kept telling me to get it. But, it was only after a fall that I got one. I went through putting all the information online but it was difficult for me because we’re all older and not terrific with computers. Then a gentleman said, “You should have called” and the reps can put the information in. So, that's what I tell everybody to do and I haven’t heard back from anybody who says that it’s been a problem.

I got Splash in November at $14.99 when the rest of them were $29.99. In December, I went to Florida and didn't need to have the device. GreatCall was very nice about pricing it to me while I was there. It's been about three weeks or so ago when I had the device in my pocket and I somehow bumped it and accidentally set off the call button. But they were nice about it and said maybe we could just call it a test. I feel safer and I'm happy with the device. Old people should have it.
