Do not fill this in!Falling is one of the most dangerous events for older adults and a leading cause of injury-related deaths. Fortunately, seniors can avoid falls by installing fall detection devices with medical alert systems.<br /><br />These devices are also called help buttons or pendants, and they can be used to call for assistance with a push of a button on their pendant or base station. [https://www.personalmedicalalarms.co.nz/ Personal Alarms for elderly NZ] Automatic fall detection sensors on these devices sense when you are falling down and will automatically send a call to the medical alert companyโs monitoring center.<br /><br />Costs:<br /><br />Most systems that include fall detection come with a fee. Some charge an additional $10 per month or more for the technology, but this can be offset by the fact that it offers an extra layer of protection and a peace of mind knowing that help is on its way if you are falling and unable to press your button.<br /><br />Precision:<br /><br />The most common movements relating to falls are easily detected by the automatic fall detection technology on most medical alert devices. However, some slower movements, such as sliding off a sofa or bed onto the floor, cannot be accurately detected by this technology and require a user to manually press the button for help.<br /><br />Ease of Use:<br /><br />Medical alert devices with fall detection are easy to use and incredibly reliable. They are lightweight and have long-lasting batteries, and most have a one-year warranty. They are also compatible with both landline and cellular networks and offer many extra features. They are perfect for the elderly who live alone or at risk of falling, and can be an invaluable addition to any medical alert system.
