While preparing the evening meal my wife passed out. I was in the next room and heard the sound of someone falling. I rushed to the kitchen and found my wife flat on the floor, face down and passed out. I quickly checked for bleeding – and breathing. I was wearing my Life Alert. Punched the button and found help immediately while still attending my wife. I could converse with Life Alert, our EMT’s where there very quickly – excellent response.

It was Christmas day; my home care worker had come that day to help. I was sitting in the living room. Then my niece and her husband came with a plate of food. I found myself in the kitchen, my niece showed me what she had bought. All of a sudden I felt my legs weren’t going to hold me. I grabbed my walker and went in the chair. Everyone said Merry Christmas to me and left. My worker had cleaned the kitchen so everything was ok. I was tired and decided to go to bed, using my walker I got up from my chair. I remember holding onto my walker but my legs went out from under me and I found myself going down. Leaving my walker in the living room I started scooting on my butt from the living room into the bedroom. Then I was exhausted and laid flat on the floor. Then I pressed my Life Alert button. I heard Life Alert come on and I told them I was on the floor and I couldn’t get up. Within just a few minutes the fire department was at the door. It’s a good thing the door wasn’t locked. They put me onto my bed, they wanted to take me to the hospital but I said just put me in my bed. Thank you very much Life Alert.

Life Alert has saved my mother’s life! There has been many times that her button has helped her with falls and calling me to assist her to safety – but over the last 14 years it saved her life twice. Her sugar dropped and before she became unconscious she used her button to alert help – the second time she fell while getting out of the shower and was unresponsive when the paramedics arrived. Thank you, Life Alert!!

Our “Life Alert” service has been great. My husband is 97 years and I am 88. He is also deaf! I feel very secure with this service. I have used it quite a few times and the crew have been very, very quick and helpful. Thank you.

On 12-11-18, I was making my bed and tripped over the wheel on my bed frame and fell on my left leg with all my weight on my knee. I was not able to get up so I pressed the Life Alert and within seconds they responded and help was on the way. The most important part to me about Life Alert is because all my family lives out of state and they are notified immediately.

Life Alert was quick to respond to my emergency. The ambulance came very quickly and took me to the hospital. While in the ambulance I was given oxygen which helped me very much. Thanks a bunch to Life Alert.

My husband, experienced a sudden drop in blood pressure and was unresponsive. I called Life Alert and they in turn contacted 911. An ambulance arrived in a timely manner and took him to the ER. He responded and was able to be discharged later in the day.

I was having a severe attack of esophageal hernia and was having severe pain and difficulty breathing. I called Life Alert and in about 4 minutes the ambulance was here and I was taken to the ER. You also notified my son and daughter – I was very impressed – and thankful – for Life Alert.

On Dec. 1, my husband had an AV fistula hemorrhage in his left arm. I immediately went to our Life Alert to get help. The operator quickly contacted 911 and told them the severity of the bleed. He also verified there was an entry to the house where emergency personnel could get in. Also our children were notified by the operator and his calmness helped me understand help was on the way. All is going well now, thanks to our having a Life Alert connection. Thank you.

Mom slipped off of the bed and hit her head on a table. Life Alert got her call in using her button and we heard the operator asking if she was ok. We were able to get an ambulance here to get her checked out. The operator stayed on the box until the paramedics transported mom. Thank you!
