Medical alert systems are devices designed to help individuals, especially seniors or those with medical conditions, call for help in emergencies. These systems typically include a wearable button, such as a pendant or wristband, that can be pressed to alert emergency services or caregivers. Many systems also offer features like fall detection and 24/7 monitoring. These systems provide peace of mind for users and their families, ensuring that assistance is just a button press away. They can be connected to a landline or operate through cellular networks, making them accessible in various living situations, including homes and assisted living facilities.
