My mom fell going into the bathroom (around 5:00am). She hit the shower doors on her right side and fell to the floor. She couldn’t get up and she knew my brother wouldn’t be over until 9:00 – so she pressed her Life Alert button. They called and said that help was on their way. They called and told me that they (medics) were taking her to the hospital to be checked. Her breathing and heart rate were erratic and they wanted to make sure she didn’t have a concussion or anything broken. Your service is a great comfort for loved ones living alone.

As I was getting into bed, I slipped and fell to the floor on my side and needed help getting up. I got in touch with Life Alert and 2 firemen came within 10 minutes. I was very lucky and did not get hurt – just a little sore on my right side. They were very prompt and courteous.

Life Alert responded to my call quickly and got the ambulance to my house within a matter of a few minutes and they stayed on the line with me until the ambulance arrived at my house.

I was not feeling well with chest cold and a medication problem, I passed out in the garage. The only way to contact help was with the Life Alert around my neck. The local fire department arrived – my front door was locked, they came in through a window, found me. When I fell, I hit my head on the front of the car and fractured it. There was a lot of bleeding. I was taken to the hospital, then to the rehab center. My wound is all healed and I am very thankful to have been a participant of Life Alert.

The first emergency call was my husband, unable to respond and unable to move his legs. Life Alert called and responded right away with all paramedics. The same thing happened when I called Life Alert the second time when my husband fell – quick response again!

I woke up feeling very cold and couldn’t get warm. I had dry heaves and then couldn’t breathe. Emergency personnel arrived about 10 minutes after I pushed the [Life Alert] button. They bundled me up and gave me oxygen and inserted an I.V. and drove me to the hospital.

At 2:a.m. one morning, the alert sounded from my carbon monoxide detector. Life Alert contacted me immediately telling me the fire department had been notified. In about 15 minutes, five volunteer firemen arrived and checked everything out. Thankfully, it was only a battery that had to be replaced. Excellent service from Life Alert!

Wife fell at 3:am one morning. I did not hear her call and Life Alert took over. It wasn’t until I heard the answer box that I knew something was wrong. Offered to stay with us until the EMT’s arrived. Excellent service - rate them a 5 on the scale of 1-5.

I became very ill, very quickly with dizziness, vomiting and diarrhea. I couldn’t get to a phone. I really needed Life Alert. They kept talking to me, even though I couldn’t answer them. I was so thankful for their service.
