Wifes Grandfather had an incident last night, at his house, that's gonna lead me to get him some type of Life Alert type of device. Have any of you got any experience with this or something similar? He's pretty active for his age (mid 80's) and still goes up to the farm by himself doing tractor, backhoe and dozer work. So something that he can keep on him, but not rely on being connected to the house would be ideal. I thought even about getting him an Iphone watch that has cellular capabilities so that he can use it to make a phone call even if his phone isn't on him. I think that's a real thing?

Other than that, say a prayer for him. He's at Huntsville Hopsital now.

My FIL has one that is a necklace. He can press the button or I believe it has a fall alert auto call in case of incapacitation. I'll find out what brand it is.

Dad had one for years. He'd push the button - one on is necklace or another on his wrist - Life Alert would call him, if no answer or an emergency they would call an ambulance or they would call me. Never had a problem, always were great responders, very patient with him and very professional. And they all spoke English.

I didn't even think about insurance as an option. That'll be something to look into, too.

Just ask the doctor to look into it. That is how we did it with my mother. Insurance covered it.

The biggest problem I know is they have to wear it for it to work.

Prayers sent. Life alert is not a bad thing at all for fragile senior citizens.


Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.
