Every day 911 is called for an elder American that has fallen and cannot get up. Sometimes it is too late. That individual has already set in motion a string of emotional and physical responses which could leave them immobilized and or in critical condition
The period between when the individual has collapsed, or fall into a state of immobilization and a 911 call is made can be crucial. Studies say that if a medical response occurs within the first 3 minutes there is time to save the patient from whatever it is that has befallen them. The makes monitoring crucial in the care for the elderly because they cannot always get to a phone themselves.
Watching our elderly is not always easy. Not all of us have time for home health care. We take our kids to school, we have our careers, as well as our own lives. We care for and love our parents but we cannot physically be there all the time. As most of us know, this is impossible.
Medical Alert bracelets have been on the market since 1977. This Medical Alert Bracelet from Connect America is the only proven Medical Alert bracelet to be certified from Good Housekeeping. Their service and reliability and expertise in caring for the elderly has shown them to be a leader in elder care monitoring.
As time goes on it seems almost certain that we are going to have to be in a position to better care for our elderly population. Be it our mother, father, grandfather or uncle, the baby boom’s burden of carrying for the elderly is fast upon us and with all the changes going on in healthcare the one thing you can do, safely and affordably, is monitoring. These medical alert bracelets allow you to do just that.
For only $29.95 a month a system set using an already existing phone line will call an emergency medical alert center anytime this alert button is pressed. The medical alert id can be worn as bracelet or necklace. All the individual has to do is press the button and they are automatically connected to a comforting, professional voice who can assess the situation and send the right kind of help.
Monitoring is one of the single best things you can do for any loved one who is in need of home health care. If you can’t be there all the time at least give yourself the piece of mind that your are doing the best you can.
