At 9am I woke up and felt dizzy and thought maybe stroke since my heart was beating so fast, or something was happening. I pushed the button and the nice lady said help is on the way. She called my daughter and said help is on the way every minute! Six or eight minutes later, four firemen and ambulance was at my door. Thank you so much for the fast response. C.G., Palm Desert, CA
We thought my mother’s blood pressure was too high. She already has Alzheimer and leukemia, so I called Life Alert. Come to find out that her sugar count was too high. The techs took great care of mom on the way to the ER. We got there and were assisted with getting mom the care she needed. I am truly grateful for this service! L.K., Southaven, MS
My mother has used Life Alert on March 26 and was taken to the hospital via ambulance due to dehydration. She had symptoms of nausea, severe headache and was unable to get off the sofa. Her color was gray. On April 1, she fell and called Life Alert. The medics came and picked her up, but did not go to the hospital. On April 2, she fell again and hurt her head, shoulder and right hip. Called Life Alert and was transported to the hospital but was not admitted. M.D., Salisbury, MD
I am on blood thinner and my dog jumped on my couch and tore the skin on my arm. I could not stop the bleeding and called Life Alert. EMS came and Life Alert stayed until the bleeding was stopped and the arm was bandaged. I started bleeding again and Life Alert responded and the bleeding stopped and re-bandaged. I started bleeding again and Life Alert sent EMT’s for a third time. All 3 times I called Life Alert and they stayed on the line while I was being treated. They called to see if I was okay.

I awoke at 2am and could not walk. I had a mild stroke. As soon as I pressed the [Life Alert], my nephew, EMT’s and two deputy sheriffs were in my home. I was carried to the hospital and stayed for 17 days there and in rehab. Thank God for Life Alert K.H., Enfield, NC
I burned the toast in the toaster. The help that I received from the [Life Alert] dispatcher was very helpful and talking to keep me up was very caring. This is the only one occasion. I was out of breath and the ambulance came and again the medics helped me with words of encouragement. They took me to the hospital and took good care of me. M.B., Rockville Center, NY
My dad fell in his kitchen. The Life Alert worked just as planned. The police were there within 5 minutes and paramedics just 10 minutes later. He had broken his hip but was well taken care of. Only positive experiences! A.P., Freehold, NJ
I fell two times and could not get up. I wasn’t injured. The [Life Alert] operator came in on the speaker and told me not to worry that help was on the way. She told me she would continue to talk with me until help arrived. She did and that was great. D.R., Omaha, NE

My husband fell down outside and could not get up. I could see that he was okay but could not get up without help. Your 911 call brought the ambulance and checked him out and made sure he was okay, great team. Our kids were all out of town. All went very well. H.G., Modesto, CA
