Stepping over the garage door ledge, I tripped and fell (had abrasions on upper arm and side of face). I pushed [the Life Alert] button (after trying to rise on my own). Less than 5 minutes later, firemen arrived, picked me up, escorted me into the house, dressed abrasion on arm and side of face. My son arrived approximately 3 minutes after firemen – so [Life Alert] had called him also!

I recently had hip replacement surgery. I was in the shower and decided to shave my legs, when I put my leg up on the back of the tub and bent over to shave, my hip went off the joint. Thank goodness I had my Life Alert button, otherwise no telling how long it would have been before someone found me.

My emergency is that I got scared early in the morning thinking a pain I was having was my heart. With that feeling, I worked myself into an anxiety attack. The crew that arrived very quickly, took very good care of me. I was so glad that I have Life Alert.

I took a rather embarrassing fall and the people who responded (from Life Alert) were wonderful! They stayed on the phone until help arrived and were concerned. I wasn’t bleeding or hurt in any way. I can no longer get up because a knee replacement, so need the help… I know I can’t be without it. Thank you so much!

I am 85-years of age. I fell in the bathroom on tile, because I am on blood thinners and hit my head, I have to go for blood scans. They are always prompt, caring and efficient. I would recommend Life Alert to anyone living alone.

We have only had to call Life Alert twice. First, [she] slipped onto the floor next to the bed and couldn’t get up, Life Alert got help and EMT’s got [her] on her feet. The Life Alert person made sure she wasn’t bleeding or broken. The second time, [he] was about to pass out, again the Life Alert made sure he was ok and got the EMT’s here right away. The Life Alert dispatcher responded immediately and took care of us right away.

I have had many falls over the years and Life Alert always came to help. My last fall was inside my walk-in closet. Once again, help came because of my Life Alert. It has truly been a life-saver for me.

I called Life Alert two times since having the system for five years and I am glad I had it. They answered the phone quickly and the ambulance and police where at my door in less than four-five minutes. I had a heart attack. I am 73-years-old and home alone.

Had gotten up early in the morning to use the bathroom, on way back to bed had a spell causing patient to fall. Couldn’t get to anything to assist in getting back off of the floor. Pushed Life Alert button to call for help. Staff stayed on line with patient until help arrived. Life Alert contacted all emergency contacts to notify of the emergency, then called back to give an update on patient after help had taken care of patient. Would strongly recommend to friends and family.

My blood sugar level was low and I could not get it to come up to normal, so I called Life Alert. An ambulance came right away and took me to the hospital. Everyone was so nice and helpful. I sure did appreciate it!
