Emergencies can happen anyplace, especially at home alone for individuals with restricted mobility or serious wellness concerns. Individuals living alone are even much more at danger. The greatest opportunity one has if a fall or healthcare emergency occurs is fast response, even if a phone cannot be reached. That's the time a person requirements an emergency telephone dialer . These devices can be activated at the press of a button and are worn as a pendant around the neck or as a bracelet. You will find many brands on the market with similar function and style. All act as an emergency notification program that contacts a set of pre-determined contacts with a pre-recorded message.
emergency telephone dialers are designed to be easy to use. There is a base unit attached to the wall with back-up battery for power outages, connection to dial out on existing phone line, and the unit to be kept with the individual. All units can automatically contact emergency personnel, while most can contact other pre-assigned people such as family or neighbors.

Some come equipped with a back-up in the event of damage or impairment of primary dialer. Some emergency notification systems have the option of choosing which emergency personnel is needed; police, fire department, EMS. This option could be especially useful in the event of fire or intruder. Units can verify activation has occurred by a simple beeping tone, or can have the added option of allowing those called to activate base unit to hear what is happening within the home or speaking to the person in need. Some units have additional inputs for detecting water leakage such as flooding or entry alert to detect if someone is attempting entry into home or even gun cabinet without disarming the system.

There are any number of reasons an emergency telephone dialer can be desirable within the home. Older individuals or those with limited mobility are a natural fit for needing an emergency notification system. Those at risk for heart attack or stroke can also benefit from the service. Anyone living alone with limited mobility or means of self-defense should strongly consider the option of forced-entry inputs in case of burglary.

Some considerations to be made in deciding whether an emergency telephone dialer is optimal choice would be the above-mentioned risk factors, and choosing a style should depend on the functional needs of the individual. Most units are not water proof or resistant and should not be used in the shower or be on wrist while washing dishes. The suggestion is to have the emergency notification system nearby, but sealed, within a plastic storage bag when expecting to be near water.

emergency telephone dialers can indeed be the difference in safety and danger, possibly life and death, for those who have them. Early response to medical or safety concerns within the home can be the deciding factor in the outcome of any emergency, especially for those with limited ability to help themselves. Notification of emergency personnel, family and neighbors at the press of a button is the hallmark and key to the emergency notification system , a life-saving service.
