Be Prepared with these Alert Devices

       The Reizen Vibrating Five ALarm Pillbox will help you make sure you never  forget to take your medicine again.  Besides helping you to organize your daily pills, another really cool feature of this pill box is that it also reminds you to take them by producing audible and/or vibrating alarms not once, not twice, but up to five times a day.  This round pillbox can easily fit in your purse or pocket and comes with a key-lock function which helps prevent an accidental trigger from a lipstick or change purse hitting the pillbox while sharing room in your purse.  It even has a snooze button in case the alarm goes off during a meeting or while in church.  To add to the fun, this five alarm pillbox has a large LCD display so you can see what your pulse rate is with its pulse rate monitor. 

       For those times when a person is bedridden and may need assistance once in a while, the Attendant Call Chime can alert an attendant or family member immediately.  Simply press a button when assistance is needed and the receiver will sound, alerting a helper up to 40 feet away.  The call button is adapted for use with a capability switch too.

      The Flashing Strobe Chime Pager and at a push of a button a bright strobe light and an 85-decibel chime will be set off, alerting assistance when needed.  The chime can be turned off for silent strobe operation only.

       Everyone hopes that they will never need emergency services, but being prepared for the possibility is always a good idea.  The Help at Hand Emergency Telephone Dialer can call the local fire department or police at just one touch of a button.  At the harsh and sudden times when the fire department or police are needed, many people become nervous and forgetful and may fumble around with the phone or even forget simple phone numbers, so what can be easier than pushing a call button that is dangling on a pendant around their neck to call for help?  Actually, to operate the pendant alarm, the person just has to pull down on the small ring that is attached to the wireless pendant that is around their neck or in their pocket and help will come.

This is a great idea for senior citizens, persons with disabilities or people living alone.  Hooking the dialer to the phone is very easy, after which the user will choose the local emergency numbers to be called.  No installation fee, no monthly service charges, no extra cost at all!

       Another alert device to help you get outside help is the Responsable Personal Alert System.  This system works with your phone too, allowing you to program up to four important phone numbers to call by a single push of a button.  This too has a pendant call button which is also a speaker phone so the caller can directly talk to the person or emergency assistance that they called.  If no one answers, 911 will automatically be dialed.  This system can use up to four pendants or wall unit communicators per base station unit which makes it great to use in a large home or medical facility.

Nobody should be alone and helpless.  These alert systems can bring comfort in the knowledge that when help is needed, it can be received with just a push of a button.  "Be Prepared" is not only a good motto for the Boy Scouts of America, but also for everyone else as well!
