I’m 89 years old and live alone I’m 89 years old and live alone. In October, I fell on my back deck and couldn’t get up. Fortunately I had my LifeFone around my neck and pressed my button and told the operator to call my daughter and quickly received help from a friend who lived close by. I wear mine whenever I’m alone and feel confident that I can get help if and when I may need it. Best decision to get LifeFone when I did.

On some tests or accidental… On some tests or accidental activations, ie, my cat stepping on the base button, it took a bit longer for a response than what i felt the time lapse should be. Except for about twice, the rest of the test response times were great, what i felt was acceptable although it really doesnt matter much as the rescue is at least ten minutes away. If a different unit has to answer than from the closest it can be 30-45 minutes away, so im likely dead anyway. The price one pays for quiet, secluded retirement living.

When my wife had a serious fall When my wife had a serious fall, I was able to push the button on my LifeFone fob. Within a few seconds, the LifeFone operator came on. I didn't have to find a phone or remember details about our address. The LifeFone folks called the ambulance and notified our family right away.

They follow my connection when I need any… They follow my connection ,answering quickly and reacting when I need help. Once was for an Ambulance and recently they called to tell me that they were not receiving any input from my machine. I had not been aware of that , so If I had needed help , I would not have been able to contact them.LifeFone makes me feel comfortable and free to not worry much about falling or any other similar problem.

Response is great, but pendant battery life is subpar When the button is pressed, a representative engages right away to check in on the customer. One time when my mom didn't answer, the police department was sent to check in. I appreciate this level of response. One area of improvement is the battery life of the pendant. It needs to be charged almost every day, which is poor compared to the quoted 5 days.
