Fall Alarm Medical Monitoring System That Alerts Crisis Responders When You Fall

Fall Alarm is a medical monitoring system that alerts crisis-trained emergency responders when you take a fall.

It’s an excellent addition to a fall prevention plan that includes other preventative measures such as installing a doorbell camera, putting up signs, and having an emergency contact on hand to call in case of an accident.

Fall alarms are available in a variety of forms, including pendants and bracelets. They’re small, discreet and can be attached to clothes or a key ring for easy access in the event of an emergency.

Some fall alarms also include a push button that can be used to call for help. These buttons can be placed in high-risk areas around the home, such as kitchens or bathrooms.

The best fall alarms use an accelerometer inside the medical alert pendant to detect when you fall, even if you can’t push your button. The system will then automatically connect you to a highly trained emergency response operator and dispatch the proper help.

When you first receive your fall detection device, test it with a caregiver or loved one. You should do a fake fall with sudden movements and then stay still to see what triggers the device to send an emergency call.





Many fall alarms are waterproof, so they can be taken into the shower and out on walks. They’re especially helpful if you live alone and don’t have a partner to help in the event of a fall.
