You need to consider if you will actually be wearing the watch 24/7/365. I have a Fitbit that needs to be recharged every few days, and I do not wear it when I sleep. I am guessing the app (on the phone) would be able to tell when the watch was not being worn or was being recharged. So, I would not recommend the Fitbit for this service, my wife has an apple watch, but it also needs to be recharged, and I have no idea if the app has the capability to make an emergency phone call.
Looking forward some interesting discussion on this.
