I'm looking for a medical alert system for my 93 year old dad. There are lots of options out there, and we haven't done much research yet.
We want one that would detect if he falls, or feels sick. And one that has a GPS since he will be out and about. Easy to use (I also thought that he can easily hear or up volume). Water resistant since he will wear in shower. He prefers something that he can wear on his wrist rather than around neck (but jury still out if that is a requirement).
Someone he knows has a newer apple watch that detects fall (I can't recall who it calls/who it is programmed too). I do want to make sure that if you ignore updates etc that it won't mess up features. And I don't know the other features, yet.
If anyone has any tips, suggestions, ones to avoid etc that would be terrific and GREATLY appreciated! .
Thx!
