Emergency Phone Dialers For The Elderly
For elderly people living independently, living alone can be worrying. One never knows when a fall, medical emergency, or other issue will arise that needs medical attention or emergency services. For oneself or one's parent who may be immobilized and unable to call for help, this is a sobering thought. However, there are now many technological devises that can make is easier for elderly people to live in their own home. Cell phones are certainly more portable than land lines and can be carried by the older person throughout the home. However, many retired people who have had little experience with cellular telephones find them uncomfortable and somewhat intimidating. For someone in this situation, there is an alternative.
The Emergency Phone Dialer is a great substitute that is quick to set up and easy to use, and adds a sense of security to an older person's day. There are several manufacturers of these devises, who all have their own designs and added features. The Help at Hand Emergency Telephone Dialer has a base unit that will dial up to four phone numbers. There is also a pendant that the owner can take with them as they move throughout the house. The pendant has a range of approximately 100 feet from the base unit.
When an emergency occurs, the person simply selects a pre-stored number from the emergency phone dialer pendant, and the base unit dials it. After someone at the number picks up, a prerecorded message is played. Not only is this unit very useful in medical emergencies, but it also can be a lifesaver during a crime. During a break-in, the base unit can be activated, and the emergency number will be dialed silently. This unit is also useful when other people are in the home, as the person wearing the necklace pendant can activate a warning alarm that is emitted from the base unit. There are no activation fees or service charges, and the unit retails for approximately $100.

The Telemergency Pro-Elite 700C emergency phone dialer with wireless help pendant is another option. It will dial 911, and has the option of holding up to five pre-programmed numbers. There is also a room monitor, which allows the base unit to act as a speakerphone. With a battery back up system, this unit is even functional during power failures and weather emergencies. Weighing approximately one pound, this devise retails for approximately $250. An Emergency phone dialer is well worth the cost. |
