Body
Being elderly or having a disability can put a person at risk in an emergency, especially in the case of someone who has difficulty physically reaching or using a telephone. Emergency call systems can be very helpful, allowing a person at home to summon caregiver assistance inside the home or to call outside the home to a neighbor or 911.
The Shirley Ryan AbilityLab does not endorse any one system; we encourage patients and their families to investigate the system that best meets individual needs.
