Consider Your Budget
Budgetary restrictions are among the top concerns for most medical alert customers. When deciding which emergency call pendant you want for an elderly relative, think about what they are comfortable paying at a monthly rate. Most elderly folks live on fixed incomes. This means you’ll want this added cost to fit as comfortably as possible into their existing budget.Check for HIPAA Compliance

TMA 5 Diamond Certified Command Center
Many searching for an emergency call pendant for elderly list “customer service” as one of the most important factors in their decision. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to know a system’s customer service reputation if you’ve never used their device. This is why you should always look for a TMA 5 Diamond Certification. Call centers with this designation meet extremely high customer service standards, guaranteeing a good experience every time you call.Pacemaker-Safe Buttons
Not all medical alert pendants are safe to use with pacemakers. Electromagnetic waves, which are generated by some technology, can keep a pacemaker from functioning properly. The American Heart Association has a full list of devices that can interfere with pacemakers, and you will see that medical alert systems are among the many. As a result, it is essential to check if a medical alert pendant is compatible with a pacemaker before wearing it.Comparing Your Emergency Call Pendant Options
