I wish I could convince my 89 year old father to get a device like this. He has a cell phone, but I would feel more comfortable if he had a device he could wear, like a pendant or a watch. He would never get an Apple watch (in fact he cancelled the internet service at his house a couple of months ago). When I have brought up the Life Alert device a few times he will say "What do you think I am an old man?"
