Medical Alert Systems Inverness, Nova Scotia

Medical alert systems work by setting off a signal which can send a signal to monitoring systems. The call can go to family, health professionals, as well as an emergency response team. The situation will be reviewed, and also medical team members can possibly be dispatched if required.

There are some medical alert systems that incorporate wireless voice, data, and GPS solutions. This enables monitoring in real-time, location tracking, and also provide fast emergency support services when needed.

Medical alert systems have a switch that can be pushed when aid is required. Pressing the button will send out an alarm out to a 24-hour emergency contact station. An operator will answer the phone call while having the ability to watch the individual’s medical background and an index of emergency contacts. The help button can be worn by the individual either on the wrist or as a pendant. The switches are normally water-proof to make sure that they can even be worn in the shower.

GPS technology (Global Positioning System) allows the operator to identify the locality of the individual. This gives added safety for the customer who may be away from the home when support is required.

Many systems even feature automatic fall detection. The switch can identify a fall and then activate the emergency call.
