How Medical Alert Systems Work
 

Medical Alert systems are easy to use, and installation is as simple as pluging your system into a phone plug and into an electrical outlet. Medical Alert systems come with either a necklace or bracelet pendant, and are waterproof for your convenience. You can get more pendants if you want; just give us a call. Below are the details of how the Medical Alert system works. The Medical Alert system is also called a Personal Emergency Response System (PERS).



How to Install the Medical Alert System:


             1.   Plug the system into your phone jack.
2.   Plug the system into a power outlet.
3.   Test the system - Press the pendant OR the TEST button.




How the Medical Alert System Works:






    1.   Senior presses the pendant button.
2.   Medical Alert unit makes very loud sound that it has been activated.
3.   Medical Alert unit calls a private, toll free 800 number (no long distance charges).
4.   Response Center responds in seconds.
5.   Response Center actions:

       Emergency Situation:
        A.   Emergency paramedics are dispatched.
        B.   Patient Care Plan information provided to Emergency paramedics.
        C.   Designated family members are immediately called.

       No answer / response from Senior (considered emergency situation):
        A.   Emergency paramedics are dispatched.
        B.   Patient Care Plan information provided to Emergency paramedics.
        C.   Designated family members are immediately called.

       Non emergency situation (e.g. testing the system):
        A.   Call family member(s) if requested by Senior
        B.   Thank the Senior for using the medical alert system.



NOTE: You may designate on Patient Care Plan if you want family members called before paramedics.
