Senior Safety Reviews

Providing a responsive and caring monitoring service can draw the line between life and death. Senior Safety is all about protecting its subscribers’ well being, so they put a lot of effort into their monitoring service. Their headquarters were designed deliberately to serve as a medical monitoring center and it is available for help every day and every night. In most cases, you will be in touch with the monitoring center 20-30 seconds after pushing the help button. The dispatchers are all EMD certified, and trained to quickly analyze every health related situation. You can customize the way they react by giving specific orders, like the order of people who must be notified when an emergency occurs. You can count on caring help even if English is not your native language, as dispatchers can communicate in over 150 languages thanks to their Foreign Language Coverage service.

By choosing the Advanced or Cellular systems, you have the possibility to equip your system with fall detection as an additional service. When you faint, stumble or experience a stroke, you may end up immobilized or unconscious, thus incapable of summoning help. The state-of-the-art fall alert buttons are constantly analyzing your movement and momentum. If they detect a sudden change, they trigger an alert with the monitoring center. These buttons are waterproof too, just like their regular counterparts. It is noteworthy that there is no sure-proof fall detection out there, but having one can significantly increase your chances to safely survive an emergency.

The phone service compatibility and the numerous features are the two major strengths of the GET HELP NOW systems. Senior Safety offers two in-home base units and a wireless mobile emergency button with GPS tracking. The Advanced unit is connected to your home via a traditional landline and a power outlet. It has a great 1,000 foot range, and the enhanced microphone and speaker covers every corner of the house, so your voice will be heard clearly, no matter where you are. The unit has a dependable backup battery lifetime of 60 hours, prolonging your protection during a blackout or disaster. Thanks to the fact that the base unit is connected to your phone line, you have the possibility to answer your phone remotely by pressing the help button, and your family members are able to reach you directly through the medical alert unit itself.

For those who lack traditional phone lines, or ditched them in favor of cell phones, Senior Alert developed its Cellular system. It has the same characteristics regarding the range, function and backup battery, but it works through a 3G cellular system. This means that you can bid farewell to complicated installations too, as all you have to do is plugging the unit into a power outlet.

If you want to order one of the GET HELP NOW systems, you can do so by calling Senior Safety over the phone, or by filling out an online form. The latter allows you to customize the different packages and extra features yourself. Be aware that free shipping is typically only available during a limited time period. After receiving the system, you can easily set it up with the guidance of the included instructions. Senior Safety made sure that elderly who are less tech-savvy can do it by themselves, which is also why they don’t offer the option to have it installed professionally. Senior Safety does however do a good job in providing setup assistance over the phone.

Senior Safety offers affordable pricing with a couple of nice bells and whistles. The company works with short-term agreements, meaning no long-term commitments are required to enjoy the service. Ordering the product means that you receive the equipment for free, and only the chosen monitoring fee must be paid. Senior Safety offers numerous ways to customize the length of your subscription.

Month-to-month, quarterly and annual billing options are available for all medical alert systems. You should note that the longer the period you opt for, the bigger the discount will be for your chosen plan. And the fact that the annual billing is less flexible shouldn’t discourage you, as the cancellation is completely free of any charges, and the unused months will be refunded to you after the equipment is safely sent back. The Advanced system starts from $26.95 for a month, the Cellular plan costs $33.95 per month, while the Mobile GPS unit has a monthly price of $35.95. The addition of a fall alert pendant increases the monthly fee with $7. When ordering any of these systems, you get to choose a free gift in the form of an extra help button or a lockbox, whichever you choose.

With Senior Safety’s in-home units, you don’t need to worry about installation or activation fees either. However, the Mobile GPS system comes with a one-time activation cost of $80. Free shipping isn’t part of the regular deal, but the company grants special events from time to time, where new subscribers receive their order for free. If you are interested in Senior Safety’s GET HELP NOW systems, but don’t want to instantly commit yourself, or just want to test how your aging family members handle this kind of technology, then take the opportunity of the 30-day trial period. During this one month, you can use the system, and if you are not satisfied, you will receive a full refund.

Senior Safety offers its subscribers a dependable medical alert system. The numerous features make the service convenient for the elderly, providing them and their family members a peace of mind. The in-home units have many useful features, which help the everyday life, and they are upgradable with fall detection. For those who like to go out a lot or often get lost in their neighborhood, the Mobile GPS system can be a great help. The monitoring center employs caring and well-trained dispatchers who quickly react to emergencies. Unfortunately, there are no other extra features, such as medication dispenser, microphone button or fire detector. The service, however, comes for a very reasonable price and a generous 30-day trial period.
