$MDHI~~~There are many medical alarm companies with many different types of emergency medical equipment and medical alert systems, so do your homework. If you’re thinking about getting a medical alarm / alert system for you or someone you care about, be sure to ALWAYS ask the following questions:
1) Can I speak and listen to the emergency operator through the pendant?
2) What happens if I hit the button when I am outside? Can I speak to the emergency operator from outside my home?
3) If I am showering or bathing, can I use my pendant / medical alert bracelet? If the door is closed, will I be heard?
4) Do the call center operators have EMT (emergency medical technician)training?
5) Will the call center emergency operators stay on the line with me for as long as I need them?
