Because it's convenient for my mom She never take it off, fortunately we haven't had to use it. This product is a very good product and we're very happy with it, she's the one using it and she loved it, she feels safe with it because they're always there for her.

My daughter picked it for me. I have the device hanging around my neck all the time. I used it once when I fell and couldn't get back up. I got a good response from the fire department. It's like an insurance policy, I pay for it, have it on me all the time, and hope that I don't have to use it. In fact, the least I use it the better.

I think the reason we picked it was the price and the availability. Well, he uses it when we go out to the doctor's or when I leave and he's alone, just in case he needs help when I'm gone. Anytime we need help they were right there we didn't have to wait for response. It's small enough to put on his belt.

It seem to fill my needs at the time I was looking. I haven't actually used it but its there if I need it and they have been comforting. I've had so little experience with it but I would say it's excellent. I'm not afraid as I say I have had little reason to use it but it's been comforting because it's been there.

Ah we just had another one before and this one seemed to work okay.. I don't think we had to use it, we always done it just to test it, we haven't had any complications. Now we haven't had any problems to really contact them.

I decided because I did Internet research. Actually my mother uses it, the last time she had to use it when she fell and broke her head. Whether you use the button to call them, or you call them on the phone with the questions, they answer right away. It's very easy to use.

Because It was a 24 hours thing you know and I always can I take it out with me when I go out so I feel pretty safe you know. Well I never had to use it but It takes a while when you hit the button, It takes 3 to 4 before you pressed the line or stuff. I don't think I like the button. The device was good. It worth the money you know so.

Well, I decided because of price and reputation they had. Fortunately, a typical day is uneventful, I don't think we've ever used it. I asked them some questions on how to install it and the people were very helpful and took us through everything. It's not too bad and is reasonably convenient.

They called me and so I got the medical alert thing. Last week was the last time I used it, I've used it several times, I am eighty four years old and I do have health problems but when I need help I just get my little thing and mash it and I'd get help right away. All I can say is that they do take good care of you.

Because of the price. I fell and I couldn't get a hold on any of my family members so I pressed the medical guardian button and I was able to reach someone that would be able to help me get off the floor, they were prompt in their actions and Its easy to carry. There is nothing negative about Medical guardian, nothing makes me unhappy.

Yes we have it and we didn't need to use it but when we have hit the machine by accident they responded and wanted to find out if everything was okay and so it has been working for us and that is it regards. My husband has mobility problems and had some falls and when I go out it is useful to have a device like this to get help if he couldn't reach me. I didn't have to use it, I hit by accident and they answered quite quickly and it was good. I would tell them that it is working for us so far but always a case of not having an emergency it's not a total experience.

A friend of mine had it, so I decided to give it a try. I wear the necklace every day. I've had to use it some 3 or 4 times and they're always there on the spot. The only thing is that the cord of the necklace is wearing out so I think I have to get a new one...

I decided because it has the GPS system. I haven't had to use it but I used it when I have neuropathy so bad I tend to fall. Well I haven't had to use customer support so I couldn't answer that. You know it it's a GPS system and that's important to me that no matter where I am in the range and its effective and they respond very quickly.

It was recommended as one of the highest and best service of all. Yes when my mother was passing out and I let them know she was passing out and response was very quickly to get her to the hospital. I have been 2 days without the lanyard and they supposed to call Sunday, I said I was going out on Tuesday and that I needed the lanyard to be here and set because I wouldn't would be able to receive it then and they were unaware of this, so I'm not too happy that.

I got it for my mother who is 97 years old. At that point she was living alone, so she would use it if she had an emergency or if she was frightened. Sometimes she had to push the button twice in order to get someone to answer the phone. I'm not sure if that was something to do with the service or the technology, but they just never answered on the first ring. We had to push twice every time. Still, they were there when we needed them.

I think I got it after seeing an advertisement for it somewhere. I pay $35 a month for the service, which is reasonable. Thank God I haven't had to use it too many times. On a typical day I don't normally go out of the house, but I wear it. I could need it any time of the day since I'm 90 years old. The one time I needed it, somebody came out and helped me get back up. The only complaint that I really have is in regard to the button. When I press it, it seems to take them some good time to respond and talk to me. It's not long enough for me to worry, but it makes me a bit anxious.

I chose them because they had high ratings and I thought they were qualified for the job. I test it every now and then but I have to push the button 2 or 3 times before I get an answer. It's also not loud enough when they answer. I'm still satisfied with the service they give me though.

I haven't had to use it for anything other than a routine monthly check. The representative that responds is always courteous, knowledgeable, and always get back to me fairly quickly. I do think they could improve on the speed a bit, but other than that it's all good. I wear the band on my wrist. Since the button is small, it's easy for me to handle it and carry it around anywhere I go.

I signed up with them 2 years ago. I think they were the most responsive company when I called, other places took days to get back to me. Since then I've only really used it once but things went fine. I'm a bit disappointed because no one followed up with me afterwards to make sure that everything had gone well. Other than that, I don't think they're using the best technology. It's just hard to hear them from the unit.

I've had to use it one or twice and we've had quick responses as far as I know. Once I just fell unconscious and, next thing I knew, I was in an ambulance on my way to the hospital. They seem to be very nice people and they do what they're supposed to do as far as I know. I haven't had any problems with it and have gotten good results. I guess it could always be cheaper though.

I will put it on in the morning and whenever I get up at night. I always make sure that it's charged before I go to bed and keep it by my bed on a table. When I need it, I just push the button and talk to the person that answers. It always works for me and does that it's supposed to do. The only thing is that I keep rolling over it and triggering the alert unintentionally. I don't know if there's anything they can do about that.

We've had several services before that we didn't like. We decided to try this one and so far we've liked it better than the rest. When we need it, we get help quickly. Basically, all I need to do is push the button and the people come on right away and send out the emergency squad. One thing I don't particularly like about the device is the light that shines from it. It's on all the time and since we have it in the bedroom we have to angle it so it doesn't bother us at night.
