What better gift to show love for a parent than the gift of life? That is exactly what many adult children are giving their parents, by buying the Life Alert medical alarm system for them. Life Alert provides home emergency protection. Whether it's a medical problem, fire or intrusion, one press of a small waterproof pendant puts Life Alert members in touch with dispatchers, 24/7, even if they can't reach a phone. Dispatchers can then send help immediately (paramedics, the fire department or the police), and notify neighbors, friends and relatives of the situation.

Life Alert Emergency Response has primarily been servicing seniors and the elderly for the past 20 years. However, Life Alert is becoming increasingly popular among Boomers and younger adults, whose parents may have the service as well. Adults of any age can benefit from Life Alert protection, especially when living alone.
