My mother lives here in The Villages. She is starting to feel worried about falling. We both feel she should have a personal emergency call necklace. But I don't know if one brand is better than another.
Has anyone had any experience using one?
Thanks

I use a pal button, palbutton.com, 1-800-881-8746. there are cheaper services but I opted for one with complete waterproofness as well as no need to sign a contract. I think it is the service the village hospital and local rehab facilities currently recommend. having a service with two way communications allows me to communicate`my specific needs which often are for physical assistance to get up after a fall(I amphysically disabled) with no need for emergency ambulance to be dispatched. but they would come if I requested or if after pushing my alarm button I was unable to communicate my needs.
