  2. Independent seniors living alone have increased chances of falling and getting injured. These unwanted occurrences can cause serious injuries that can potentially change their lives in a bad way. And if help does not arrive immediately, the results can be worse. If your senior loved one is living alone, getting him or her a personal alarm is always a good option to consider.

  3. Here are several reasons why: ●A personal alarm can provide you with peace of mind if you are a senior individual with mobility issues. You don’t have to be concerned about bringing your phone with you at all times. By carrying or wearing a small, easy-to-use personal alarm, help is only a button away. You can also rest easier, knowing that if you fall and are unable to communicate, the operator will summon a medical team and provide you with the emergency assistance you need. ●In connection with the above point, the sooner assistance arrives, the better the chances of avoiding a worst-case scenario. Because help is only a button away, personal alarm systems boost a senior individual’s chances of recovery. In the event of a serious emergency, every second counts; therefore, receiving treatment as soon as possible can be the difference between life and death. If your loved ones are injured, personal alarm systems with 24/7 monitoring can definitely better than chances of making a full recovery and avoiding complications.

  4. ●Intruders often target senior individuals living alone because they are considered easy targets. Intruders are deterred by personal alarms because they know aid is always on the way. Personal alarm systems are supposed to benefit the elderly who may require medical treatment, but they are also an excellent way to fend off intruders from preying on your loved ones. If an intruder breaks into your senior loved one’s house, they can quickly receive assistance by calling an operator. With the presence of the alarm system, they will most likely scare off intruders right away. ●Freedom and personal space are important for seniors, so wearing personal alarms will ease the worries of loved ones while they live independently. It gives them the confidence that help is always ready in case of falls and other accidents. Moreover, there are modern personal alarms today with automatic fall detection for more convenient medical and quicker medical responses.
