Home Medical Alert Devices: Rent or Buy?

With either a pendant worn around the neck or wearing the device on the wrist like a watch, if you fall and cannot get up, you push a button and help is summons with a 2 way voice system being activated. The demand is growing for these types of systems. And most companies rent these devices to seniors and the elderly. Now, some companies are starting to offer the units for purchase. It isn't a new concept in the personal emergency response system industry, but, it is growing. The biggest advantage to this type of agreement is that the monthly costs drop dramatically. For example, most companies that rent medical alert devices for seniors and the elderly charge between $25 and $40 per month. But, a new offering by Interstate Alarm Monitoring, with central station support that is over 30 years old, is offering the Caveo 872 by SafetyCare to purchase and the monthly rental fee is $13.77. The purchase price is currently being reduced to $155 with $15 shipping fee. And, they will buy the unit back at any time if it is in good shape for $100. This is a substantial savings for the consumer. For more information, go to www.medicalalertshop.com or call 1-877-717-7477.
