With several systems to choose from, SafeGuard has medical alert systems, monitoring services, and proactive health management solutions that continue to provide the opportunity for seniors and vulnerable individuals to enjoy the activities of daily living and to maintain an independent lifestyle while staying safe at home and beyond the home.
SafeGuard has been providing their products since 1985. With 35 years in the business, the company is committed to customers and has upheld a positive reputation in the medical industry. The company has trained installation experts who are able to assist with installing the products for customers.
HomeSafe allows seniors, individuals with medical conditions, and others who live alone to maintain independent lifestyles. Emergency help is available around the clock offering peace of mind to those who may feel at-risk. It is a great system for people who spend most time at home. It is easy to get it set up and learn to operate it, and it can be activated within minutes of receiving it.
It is operated with advanced wireless technology and has anti-failure protection features, including: Power failure, low or missing battery alerts, 24-hour battery backup, and automatic periodic testing.
This system is a personal panic button which can be worn as a wristband or a necklace, clipped to clothing, or mounted to a wall. The console for the unit has built in two-way hands free voice communication capabilities so that the SafeGuard Emergency Response Center can always be contacted.
The biggest fear of many seniors who live on their own is the fear of falling and not being able to get help. The HomeSafe with AutoFall Medical Alert System is a wonderful personal safety solution for seniors. It allows them to have peace of mind that if a fall occurs, help can be on the way immediately.
The system is equipped with automatic fall detection sensors that are able to detect abnormal changes in vertical and horizontal positioning. If the system detects a fall and there is not correction in body body movement after 10 seconds, the HomeSafe AutoFall System will immediately activate the two-way voice communication between the unit and the SafeGuard Emergency Response Center.
The response staff are all trained and qualified to deal with urgent and non-urgent falls and other situations. They are available 24 hours a day/365 days a year.
This unit combines automatic fall detection with a medical alert system for people who wish to live independently but may have a concern of falling.
This system will allow seniors to feel secure, even when leaving home. They will have the confidence that help is available since this system can monitor from virtually anywhere – at home or on the go. This is a great choice for individuals that want to feel safe and secure in and out of the home.
EverSafe helps individuals be proactive about their health. Eversafe is a health and wellness management tool that is used with the MobileSafe with GPS Medical Alert System to make it easier for caregivers. Using this system helps to detect warning signs and provide intervention before there is a crisis.
The EverSafe helps to provide a more comprehensive view of an individuals’ health and device status. The EverSafe will send alerts when readings are not in the target range so that the caregiver can remotely assist in managing the wellbeing of their loved one.
It will help to improve the overall care management of an individual through the use of health assessments, daily activity data, location details, fall, or any emergency events. EverSafe will enable caregivers, friends, family, and the SafeGuard Emergency Response Center to work cooperatively to provide support for the individual.
CallSafe is a monitoring system that will ensure caregivers do not need to be available at all times. They will have peace of mind knowing that an experienced SafeGuard personal response specialist will be available to call your loved one to ensure everything is comfortable and sage, or to provide help if needed.
Subscribers to the service can choose how often their loved one should be called and what the best time of day is.
The three systems vary a little in price and then there are charges for the other optional services. The fees start at $24.95 a month and range up to $49.95 a month. The cost of EverSafe will depend on the needs of the individual. You just have to call the toll free number (1-866-900-0205) for further information.
Having CallSafe is billed at $1 per call and the frequency of calls is up to the customer.
It can be difficult to choose which options best suit your needs. You can also call the toll free number for further information about any of the options and services available. It is best to discuss the systems with your caregiver and health care professional to determine the best fit for your needs.
