Medical Guardian MGMobile – Medical Alert Necklace Systems for Seniors - Fast, Reliable Water-Resistant Panic Button, 4G GPS Tracker with 24/7 Emergency Operator Care - Includes Step Tracking

Independent living is wonderful, but even the best fall down sometimes. That's why you need this alert necklace to keep you safe should an unexpected issue arise.

Don’t waste your money. Buy a better systemWe activated fall protection. Waited the 2 days for it to activate on the device and it does not work. I throw it down from a height of 5 foot into a laundry basket waited 120 seconds and nothing. I then stood on the bed and fell flat on my face and waited 3 minutes. again it did not activate. What good is this device if does not activate when they fall down. So if they become unconscious from the fall they are helpless and this device is useless. Only works if you can press the button. So playing $10 extra a month for fall protection is a scam just to get more money from the user.

Does not work 100% of the time:(

This project has some pros and cons to consider. Pro It has a nice design that allows it to be worn around the next or clipped to clothing. Con The device's charging needs may prove to be an issue for us however. The battery needs to be changed every 4 to 5 days. That is our biggest concern is ensuring she that she remembers to charge it and then put it back on after charging. We would rather she wear it during the night since she gets up so often to toilet, so charging has to be done during the day. I don't live with her so having to call and prompt her and ensure she is wearing it and keeping it charged. It is lightweight. The size of a car key fob, but about the weight of two car fobs. The weight is a little much for around her neck. Clip on is a possibility, but then have to ensure it stays clipped to her pants throughout the day and toileting. Not perfect, but when she wears it it gives you a little more confidence she will be okay in the change that she falls

This is a very nice to have. This is a very nice to be able to feel a little relief when you leave an loved one at home that needs special care.This is easy to set up, you do have to get a monthly subscription to get all of the features, but it is worth it. Besides the call button you get GPS as well as 24/7 care. You can feel a little weight being lifted off of your shoulders. It is nice even if you are home.The necklace is lightweight and easy to put on and take off.

I don't know if you get any added value when you buy these devices direct from Guardian, but you get a 30-day free trial when you order them from Amazon. it's really easy to set up, you just call the telephone number on the box and then give them the code from the box. They basically do all the rest.It's good peace of mind having this for older loved ones.

This seems like a great product and possibly works well. The reality, though, is that that $40 per month to monitor for if you need assistance at some point during that month is steep for the people who would benefit most from this (fixed income seniors with disabilities or care needs). I didn't open the box because I didn't want to activate it and take it away from someone who isn't dissuaded by the steep monthly fee.

It is hard to get started. Other than that it works good.
