Medical Alert Customer Falls at Home, Not Injured but Needed Help

Wednesday, January 16th, 2013

The EMC Security local monitoring center in Suwanee, Georgia received a two-way voice medical alert alarm from the home of a customer in Carrollton, Georgia.  The customer was home alone and had fallen in his bedroom.  Though he was uninjured, he still needed help getting up.  He pressed the button on his two-way voice medical alert pendant and was able to speak directly with a monitoring center operator.  He told the operator that he had fallen while home alone at night.  He said he did not need the paramedics sent to his home and asked the operator to notify his son who was on the contact list.  The operator immediately called the customer’s son who was able to arrive at the home and help the customer up off the floor.

While it is vital to get emergency medical help when injured, many medical alert users find that they do not always need an ambulance sent to their home after falling.  Often times, they are not injured, but merely need help getting back up or collecting themselves from a slight fall.  The EMC Medical Alert pendant is there to help those in need whether severely injured or those in need of simple physical assistance.  Should you or someone you know benefit from having an EMC Medical Alert two-way voice pendant, please call 770-963-0305 to speak with a representative about the EMC Medical Alert system.

A Danielsville, Georgia resident called about the EMC Medical Alert system for his 83 year old mother.  She has diabetes and lives alone near his home.  He had visited his mother the previous Sunday afternoon.  When he left his mother, she was in the kitchen starting to prepare an evening meal for him and his family.  Upon returning 4 hours later, he found his mother laying on the floor, semi-conscious.  She had fallen and hit her head and lay there while food was burning on the stove.  This incident confirmed to the son that his mother needed the EMC Medical Alert system and prompted him to call EMC Security.  An EMC Medical Alert consultant visited the home, demonstrated and installed the system for them.  Also, since she often went outside to her garden, the man and his mother were impressed with the coverage of the two-way-voice through the pendant capability.   The family was very relieved, knowing that their mother could get help at the push of a button on the pendant that she now wears around her neck.
