MediPendant™
is a personal emergency response system (also known as medical alarm)
that gives users access to help at the press of a button, 24 hours a day,
365 days a year. It is the only monitored medical alarm on the market today
that allows the user to speak and listen to the operator DIRECTLY
through the pendant.
There are many medical alarm companies with many different
types of equipment, so do your homework. If you're thinking about getting a
medical alarm for you or someone you care about, be sure to ALWAYS
ask the following questions:
Can I speak and listen to the operator through
the pendant?
What happens if I hit the button when I am outside?
Can I speak to the operator from outside my home?
If I am showering or bathing, can I use my pendant?
If the door is closed, will I be heard?
Do the call center operators have EMT training?
Will the call center operators stay on the line with me
for as long as I need them?
The answers to these questions should
always be YES!
