Fall Monitor is a feature designed to safeguard loved ones against falls by automatically calling for assistance when it detects movements associated with falling. It's ideal for lone workers or people living with chronic conditions that cause dizziness, loss of consciousness or imbalance; especially useful in conditions like MS where dizziness, loss of consciousness and imbalance are prevalent symptoms.

Medical alert systems generally include fall detection as part of their services. When activated, this device will send a signal directly to a monitoring center when it senses a fall; typically without the wearer needing to press their help button - although they should always press it if possible).

Some systems use GPS technology to pinpoint your location. https://maps.app.goo.gl/p8cZ14rECqqQZKQ76 This can be especially helpful if you're using a mobile version of your device and don't trigger an automated call - instead, your device will connect you directly with an agent who will ask questions and check on your wellbeing.

Not all systems use identical sensors, but most are designed to detect falls by measuring changes in acceleration, speed and direction. Accelerometers and gyroscopes monitor movements closely for telltale patterns associated with falls; camera/motion sensors record anything that might have led to one. The best medical alert systems for falls have published clinical studies showing how accurate their fall detectors are while quickly connecting to monitoring centers that then communicate with contacts or first responders as required for assistance dispatching.

As soon as a fall detection alarm is activated, your monitoring company or emergency contact will be contacted through two-way speaker/microphone system. An operator will assess your needs and stay with you until help arrives - some devices even allow users to manually call an operator or emergency services directly themselves.

While some companies provide standalone devices with fall detection, most medical alert providers include this feature as part of their home and on-the-go plans without additional monthly charges - some like Lifeline even include it as part of their basic plans! When selecting a provider, look for packages which include automatic fall detection as well as other important features, like waterproofing for both at-home and on-the-go protection; excellent customer support services; as well as money back guarantees should the device fail to detect a fall or produce false alarms.
