Apple Watch vs. Medical Alert Systems
Переглядів 3 тис.3 місяці тому
An Apple Watch has fall detection, GPS capabilities, and emergency calling features, all of which are standard features on medical alert systems. However, medical alert systems are much more simple, potentially making them a better way to contact help in an emergency.

Assistive Technology for Seniors in 2022
My 88 year old mother, who can't see well, just got an iPhone. She's having all kinds of trouble learning it. We've taught her how to just let Siri make calls and answer them, and the same with text messages. This AA screen will be great for her, but there's no mention on whether Siri will still work in the AA mode. Please say it will!
They need to make petite watches for smaller women
How does an iWatch user stay monitored while their iWatch is charging for 1 to 1.5 hours? Buy 2 so they always have one on them while the other is charging? Or just hope nothing happens during that short window of time while their device is charging and also hope they remember to put it back on once charged.
That’s a fair point. I’d recommend charging it on a nightstand while sleeping. Depending on your model, you’ll likely want to charge it every day.
Yeah right. My dad would be pressing the emergency 911 button when he had to use the bathroom. No go, too accessible. He would also forget to hang up. Sigh....
My 71 year old grandpa has an iPhone he doesn’t use and I pay the bills. This is helpful, thank you so much
Can you tell me more about the Real Time Text (RTT) or live captions during phone calls
Hi, from Cranston. I bought this phone because it was $49. I have had smart phones but I basically need to make and receive calls.I got a Consumer Cellular plan for 50 bucks - 2 lines unlimited everything.So as a pensioner it works for me and the wife who has a smartphone. The info here is invaluable so thanks!
I just bought a pair of Autiphon UO1 for my granny. Hope they work. They were less than $200. It's insane how expensive it is to have senses....
I pat 1600.
People saytheir alarm did not go off when they fell, they are supposed to push the alarm button in the middle of the pendant. Someone will answer and you will get help. I am new to this device and gladly have not fallen yet, but I don't see any problems with it.
They couldn't even give it a face?
Great review. Thank you so much
Thanks, easy understanding and how Apple test the falling condition, How did they test? Thakns
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are so knowledgeable and helpful. I think this will be very empowering for many people.
Is there a GPS?
Biden is finally beat the Medicare
Fall alert did not work. Billing was a problem for me.
My fall alert did not work. Fell a couple times and it did not go off. Also their billing practices were a problem for me.
You are hot Ryan
Why can't medicare be global like taxation. 😤
National Aide Veterans and Families (NAVF) to see the dates of veterans of War and help for their spouses too. They can help you fill out paperwork because if you get one thing wrong, you can be rejected and veterans and their spouses think they do not qualify for the help they are due and available for them. Non profit help. They understand the separate veterans dept to call as the different departments do not talk between theirselves when you call Va for help. Thank you Veterans!
My area is discontinuing landlines completely. Apparently, it's a worlwide thing. I'm so upset. Internet and cellular phones are not as reliable.
This assistant access mode is great. I think I might set my sister up a phone like this.
I got a jitterbug for for my senior sister, who is not technology savvy. These android phones still get a lot of pop-ups and can have apps on them. They can still be justice confusing.

Your review mentioned a $10 extra monthly charge for fall detection? If that's true, this is the most evil money-grabbing scheme ever, because it shouldn't cost anything to use the onboard gyroscope.
I agree. Unfortunately, most companies charge extra for this feature. The Kanega Watch includes it for no extra charge; however it'll cost you over $50 per month. Watch our review to see fall detection in action: ua-cam.com/video/WUzdSbvZd5o/v-deo.htmlsi=DxZPoVtiC4HuwZwr
@@Theseniorlist At this rate (no pun intended), the more expensive Apple Watch will beat all competition without deliberately trying to do so. Please keep reviewing, and ideally write "X vs Y" comparison articles. Thank you!
I’m in the process of removing this shit 💩 right now 😆
You can get a better phone unlocked and a lot cheaper service and be ahead at the end of a year especially if you are a heavy data user
Fast but valuable info and you could just follow him
❤
I pay like £6 for unlimited calls and texts plus 4G,i can upgrade and pay £7 to get all that but 10GB...sooo idk what u on about.
Excellent review but I've found the IPhone Senior mode too restrictive. While you can set it up to receive calls and text from unknown callers, you cannot call or text back to an unknown caller. You cannot delete old text messages. No web browser. In Senior mode you cannot add to your contacts. I think the Senior mode is good for those who you are trying to protect from the outside world. Might also be good for children who need to call home or call their pre-approved friends.
I would like to use this on a daily basis, at home or outside. Is there a way to switch from data to wifi depending if im home or outside ?
Aw damn
What happened to Life Alert? Are they still working?
Why not dial 911?
EXCELLENT VIDEOS ON ALL THE MEDICAL ALERT WATCHES, BUT THE BACKGROUND MUSIC IS TOO SCARY ... haha!
Hello please i ned a fast response i just bought this phone and culdnt find the sim slot
You lost me when you said GPS allows you to make medical calls. GPS is Global Positioning System, not a phone system.
How far away from the phone can you get in order to make a voice command?
Man..slow down. You are my heroe for information to start this..but to fast
It worked for the elderly that I worked with.
Thank you for taking care of the seniors. I appreciate your precious time.
This would be great for my mom who is wheelchair bound
This guy is gay
Mine is very different.
Thanks, I didn't know about the voice to text for messages. Texting takes forever without it.
i had my Iris flip phone for 3 weeks, decided to restart it. then it was frozen. I called CC, was told that a hot shock device had to be added. I had to take it back to Target. where I bought it to have it fixed. I bought it when my Iris connect android locked up. In case any of you buy it without having the hot shock device fixed. Don't try to restart it. You will be frozen.
In a state of an emergency, landline still operates to force people to stay at home.
You must sit in the tube close the door and wait till the water rises. Then you sit in the tube as the water drains? I’ll pass.
