Safety and Security for Elders

My father is 81 years old and lives alone. I worry about him falling or having an accident at home and not being able to get to a phone to call for help, so I started doing some research into a Medical Alarm system for him.

It doesn't make sense to have separate systems for intruder alerts and medical alerts, so a good combination monitoring system was important to me. In my research I discovered Brickhouse Alert, which combines and easy to carry and use Medical Alarm with an intruder alert, inactivity alert, and fall alert to give comprehensive coverage.

The Medical Alarm can be activated with a simple press of a button, and I have asked my dad to wear the small button unit around his neck when he's at home. Hopefully we won't have to use it!
