For example, if Dad is getting to the age where his memory is not the best and he forgets to take his pills on time or he’s more fragile and clumsy when it comes to the stairs in the house or curbs on the corner, there can be a perfect medical alert system that could fit Dad’s needs.

If this is the case, getting dad a medical alert device that has GPS location tracking enabling is a good idea. That way if Dad is the middle of the gold course or walking around the neighborhood and gets lost or an emergency health event occurs, he can simply press the button and emergency services will be able to detect his location to get him the help he needs much faster than any other route. In these important times in lift when something happens that we are unaware, these precious moments can make a big difference in the outcome of the situation. EMS and local police authorities can only get to the location as fast as they can, however, with a direct connection in the form a 2-way communication button allows for a faster call alert system to get help.
