Every time I have tested it, it has worked perfectly. However, they are based back East, and I would feel more comfortable if they had an office out here in the West.

I haven't had to use it yet, but one day I pushed the button accidentally and they came right on to make sure I was okay. I barely even touched it and they were right there

I think that the buttons are nice and large. I think the option of having a necklace or a watch is good as well. When we call in for a test, it does quite a few rings until it's picked up.

Any time I call to test my machine, I never have a problem with them. The only thing I have a question about is if I am still covered if I go out of state.

I just got the device that can cover me from anywhere, but it's kind of hard to carry around. But, it works fine as far as I know, and they treat me nicely when I call them.

We've had a few accidental times but they were very nice. They're always so quick to respond and when we let them know it's not an emergency, they're very kind.

I used it when I was having heart problems, and they answered and sent me an ambulance within minutes. Sometimes it takes them a while to answer though.

I fell in the bedroom and they called my daughter who lives 45 minutes away. She told them to send the ambulance. We could have avoided that if she called the neighbors first.

It seems like when it says "call in progress" and you can't stop the call from going through once the button is pushed. Between the time that I press the button and get a response, it's not as fast as I would really like.

The few times I've called your company, it has been prompt in responding. It can't be more convenient. One has to put it on her body somewhere. It's as good as it can be at the same time and serve it's function.

It doesn't work as well as I'd hoped. When I call or press the button I get a signal and says my call is in progress but then nobody calls me back. It's difficult to talk to one of their representatives, the phone is either busy or nobody is there.

It has to be attached or connected with the radio base or transmitter. For a senior, to have to remember to take the transmitter with them is a little bit of a concern.
