In-Home Medical Alert System

Bay Alarm Medical alert system
The Bay Alarm Medical in-home medical alert system is popular, easy to use and lowest in price.

Recommended for seniors who want coverage while they are at home. A home phone line is needed. Works with traditional landlines, major VoIP and cable phone lines as well. If you do not have a home phone line, look into the In-Home Cellular Alert System described below.

Base Station Unit

This personal emergency response system comes with a base station unit and a help button. The base station requires a traditional landline phone connection. If you do not have a traditional landline, the unit will also work with most well known VoIP and cable phone lines. All you need to do is plug in the phone line and the power adapter. Then, you are all set to push the help button and test out your system. This system is extremely easy to install and use.

Speaker and Microphone

A great feature of the base station is its sensitive built-in speaker and microphone. Their high-output and ultra sensitivity ensures amazing and clear communication during an emergency. You will need to test things out, but it’s quite possible to be in another room from where the base station unit is placed and still communicate with the monitoring agent.

The base station works on a reliable and proven technology. What’s more is that it’s portable (for in-home use). So, you can easily carry it with you when you’re on a vacation or visiting family or friends in another state. Bay Alarm Medical offers its services all over the USA including Hawaii and Alaska.

Help Button

The help button is major component of the in-home medical alert system – it’s the piece that is worn by the senior user. It’s comfortable, sleek and light-weight. It can be worn around neck as a necklace or as a wristband.

Designed to be waterproof, elderly users can wear their help buttons all the time, including when they go to the bath or shower areas. This is important, as the risk for elderly falls are usually highest in the bathroom.

The help button has a wide coverage of up to 1,000 feet. Usually, this wide coverage includes the front and backyards of your home. It also comes with a lifetime warranty. The help button can last for up to 5 years without the need to recharge it. However, if the battery starts to run low, the button is designed to send an alert to the company’s monitoring station. They will immediately ship a new button free of cost.
