If you have fallen down and need help, a medical alarm might be a good choice. We searched and found some reviews so you can learn more about them and see if a medical alarm is a good choice for you.

IMPORTANT: buyer beware - a number of these “medical alarm review websites” get paid by the Medical Alarm Manufacturers if you click on a link on the review website to the manufacturer and buy their product.
