Classic Guardian

Medical Guardian is very beneficial to have even if you aren't at an age to need one. The wrist pendant is waterproof and very easy to use. Since it also looks like a watch, it doesn't stand out like a sore thumb if you are worried about that. It also has a 32 hour battery life which is nice considering you don't need to always plug it in. Overall, it is an efficient and effective equipment to own.

Needed a medical alert that could cover my gmom's home - this has a 1,300ft range. Could not test the full range but it covered her property. She likes to garden so we wanted to make sure if she fell outside she could receive help quickly. Tested button outside successfully. She likes the wrist band too. Device is pretty easy to use once set up but you have to call in to activate it, otherwise it will not work - there is a phone number to call on the plastic wrap.

In order for this device to be activated, the user must call an 800 number upon receipt to activate the service. After calling the 800 number provided, which directs you to Medical Guardian, the activation department requests a number called the "UDI number," which is clearly marked on the packaging and also on the device. However, in this case, Medical Guardian did not have this UDI number in their system. After making multiple calls to Medical Guardian for assistance, and requesting escalation for assistance to management level, we were told we would receive a call back within 48 hours. We never received a call back from anyone, and after we made another call to Medical Guardian that lasted twenty minutes, we still have not ability to activate this device.

Works pretty good. Pendent pretty much say to bump accidentally and set off

Got this for my mom, easy peasy, you MUST have landline & pay monthly, no contract, im paying 29.95, needs to plug in outlet also, so need someone a little savy with hooking things up, 100% waterproof necklace, just for her apt. Not for outside, so far so good

This is a deceiving product, i was looking for a no monthly charge system here on amazon and the first unit that came up was this one so i said ok for 30 dollars this is a great deal no monthly fee no monitoring which is fine to me all i want is for my mom to just hit the button and wait for the 911 responders, but no you have to buy a monthly monitoring service. so i am returning this asap.

My mom has Parkinsons disease and has fallen a few times injuring herself. Obviously I worry a lot about her safety and what we can do to help in these difficult times. Medical Guardian has given us a good way to help her and helps ease all of our minds a little. Would recommend if you find yourself needing some peace of mind too!

I bought this health alarm, as my husband recently died and I live all alone, deep in the woods. Especially with this isolation in our country, if I fell and hurt myself I might lie there for several days before anyone would find me. In the meantime, a good friend, who also lives alone, and I made arrangements to call each other every night at 7:00. That way, if one of us did get hurt, she would only have to wait one day (at the longest) before help was summoned. Much as I enjoy our nightly chats, that is not a "forever" solution, so I got this alarm. Yesterday, when I called to register this product, I balked when they asked for my credit card information, or my bank routing number and account number. They didn't need this, as they send out bills for their monitoring service. (which is reasonable priced) I don't like that information floating around. After speaking with my friend, and with my credit union, and being assured that any unauthorized charges would be promptly removed and the onus would be on the vendor to justify the charge, I called back today and completed the registration. But I am still a bit uncomfortable with this situation. We are told again and again to never give that information out. It seems reckless to do so. Otherwise, we tested both the necklace and the wrist band, and they seem to work well. The rescue calls were prompt and courteous. As I said earlier, the monthly fee is reasonable. I am comfortable with this product.
