How do I talk to my elderly family member about getting them a medical alert system? What if they don’t want one?
A. After over 30 years of providing service to seniors around the country, we have found that most seniors welcome having a medical alert system. They like the control and independence it provides them, and the peace of mind it gives to family members. We also find that it may work best if you order a medical alert system and present it to them as a gift – it then becomes easy for them to accept your generosity and concern.
