These transmitters come in different forms that can suit your comfort level such as an alarm bracelet, necklace, belt clip or cell phone and have a medical alarm support unit. When any sort of emergency takes place such as heart attack, burglar, fire, domestic disturbances, fall or stroke the senior citizen can immediately press the button on the transmitter which will then transmit the signal to a registered call center.
This call center will receive the signal and process your emergency response and will try to communicate with the user through a two way radio to provide the aid required at that situation. If the call center unit does not get any response from the user then the immediate help will be dispatched to the concerned destination. This help provided by the center will not only involve fire, police or ambulance but also alerts those people who you could have earlier decided on which could include friends, family, neighbors, your doctor and loved ones.
