One of the newest products gaining popularity is the medical alert device for the elderly or those with an illness that might need immediate medical attention. It usually comes in the form of a pendant that is worn around the neck. It works is the same as any wireless device in a home security system. Except, the way it is triggered is when the person who needs help just pushes the button on the device. It sends a signal to the wireless receiver in the security system, the security system sends a signal to the central station and the central station calls the local medical authorities listed in the profile of the customer. Although most companies charge around $30 per month for service, it can be much less if it is just part of a regular security system. For example, the same service through the South Carolina Company, InterstateAlarmMonitoring.com , is $7.77 per month (770-485-0232).
