Is there a medic alert system that works most anywhere? You know, Mom's 82, on so on.
All the "name" brands only cover a certain radius.

      I remember surprising my Grandmother with a visit. I lived hours away, so she wasn't expecting me.

      Upon my arrival, i noticed her medic alert chain sitting on an end table. Gosh, she was stubborn! I tried to reason with her, but she was bound and bent she was completely capable of looking after herself without that medic alert hanging around her neck!

      Best of luck to you!
