    Who Needs a Medical Alert?

    A medical alert is a tool that gives peace of mind to people at any age. Medical alerts are not necessarily just for the elderly or the disabled. Some perfectly healthy people who are looking for added protection can also benefit from a medical alert. With so many benefits and reasons for having a medical alert, it becomes difficult to differentiate between the people who really should have a medical alert and those who may be able to substitute a medical alert system with something less expensive or less technical (like carrying a cell phone with them at all times).

    You really should have a medical alert if you have a chronic medical condition, have drug or food allergies, or take multiple medicines. Unfortunately, the majority of the people who fit into this category are the senior citizens. Those with the above mentioned ailments may be able to live very comfortably without a medical alert system if they live with someone else who can help them if necessary or if their living conditions are safe and they have the mobility to tend to their own needs immediately.

    So we know about the types of people who really should have a medical alert system, but what about those for whom a medical alarm system is vital. Of all the unfortunate things that could happen in your house the number one danger that senior citizens face is the danger of becoming injured from a fall and not being able to get up or to otherwise call for help. If you are considering the purchase of a medical alert system for a loved one or for yourself, examine how real this threat of falling is in your situation. A previous fall or history of falls is often reason enough to purchase a medical alert system.

    In addition, there are more specific conditions for which a medical alert can help you to be put in contact with emergency services at the touch of a button. But with the medical alert system, you disclose your individual medical issues and needs to the professionals in the monitoring center so that when you push your medical alert button to call for help, a record of those individual needs can be sent directly to the team or hospital that will be assisting you. When they have this information your treatment can be speedier and mistakes can be prevented.

    You should seriously consider looking into a medical alert system if you have any sort of medical condition that could leave you immobile or unable to speak. Such things as a heart attack, stroke or seizures are extremely time sensitive. If you are unable to get medical help immediately, such attacks could cause irreversible damage and even death.
