I'm starting to research the "Life Alert" type of service for my dad who has been a widower for several years. Although he is in good health, at 82 one never knows when medical assistance could be needed. The last time he had a serious medical problem 7 years ago, he drove himself to the emergency room while he was in serious pain -- but don't get me started about that!

Would like feedback on these systems -- brand recommendations, which ones to stay away from, etc.

Now convincing my father to wear one of these pendants/bracelets may be another story...
