Hello, I am looking for a medical alert system for my elderly aunt. The system should include automatic fall detection. What are your recommendations? There are many providers, not only Life Alert. Thank you very much!

Try a Google search "medical alert systems reviews", there appeared to be lots of info.

Yes, that was my first step. Now, I'd like to narrow it down and find out if anyone has personal recommendations.

Ah, sorry, I am not able to help, no firsthand experience, I just had a thought, you might check with some of the assisted living facilities, they have this equipment for patients. It will also depend on whether you need monitoring outside (away from) her house, then you are probably looking at a cellular based system. If you do a search on this site, you will find that all of the cellular networks (in TV) are not the same.
Good luck with your quest.
