Caregivers, here’s a great Holiday gift that will not only provide excellent care for your loved one but will bring you peace of mind too! Outfit your loved ones with a medical alert system device and give them the gift of independence, protection, and a wonderful feeling of security. Upping the level of care and protection with a medical alert device is the perfect way to spread the love this holiday season.

Gifts that protect those we care for are the best!

When my independent (and stubborn) loved one finally agreed to wear a medical alert system, we all breathed a huge sigh of relief. The entire family felt safe and protected. Since she did not require full-time care and refused to even consider it, this medical alert system and device was an answer to our prayers. It was like having a personal assistant there, waiting, in case she fell or needed immediate medical attention. At the push of a button, she could get help. Once she began wearing the device, she reluctantly admitted that she felt safer and more confident, and this device was a really good idea. It was light and easy to wear, and knowing it was there made her feel empowered and connected.

Knowing my loved one was protected gave me such peace of mind!

If your loved one wants an independent and empowered lifestyle but needs the ability to contact emergency services should the unthinkable happen, a medical alert device is the way to go. There is no downside whatsoever and the look and feel of medical systems and devices have come a long way. These are not your father’s Oldsmobiles! The services they provide are invaluable and can be lifesaving.

BLACK+DECKER has developed a wonderful new line of medical alert devices that will provide dynamic protection while being discreet, comfortable to wear, and easy to use. The ultramodern design and state-of-the-art technology found in their BLACK+DECKER goVia line provide essential protection for people who live actively and want peace of mind that wherever they go, or whatever they do, help is always available, even if something sudden happens. Amazingly, some devices can detect a sudden change in motion and will automatically connect to help.

BLACK+DECKER goVia devices come in a modern and comfortable variety of options from pendants to wristbands, bringing the entire realm of medical alert devices to a new level of wearability and convenience.

Here’s a breakdown of the extensive variety of devices available.

goVia MINI: A compact, lightweight wearable button that can provide peace of mind wherever you go. The goVia MINI includes nationwide coverage on Verizon’s 4G LTE network, which allows for tracking using GPS, Wi-Fi, and Triangulation in the event of an emergency happening outside the home. Has a battery life of up to 5 days in the event of an emergency.

goVia MOVE: A lightweight wearable button that operates on AT&T’s nationwide cellular network. Can connect users to operators when worn within 300 feet of the base station and has GPS tracking capabilities.

goVia HOME Classic: A base station that connects to your landline and comes with a wristband and neck pendant for protection around the home. The wristband and pendant have a coverage range of up to 1,300 feet away from the base station. If outside of this range, the wearable buttons will not connect to an operation.

goVia HOME Wireless: The goVia HOME Wireless comes with a base station and two wearable buttons just like the HOME Classic but uses the nationwide AT&T cellular network to provide coverage (subscription required). The wearable buttons will operate up to 600 feet away from the base station.

goVia HOME with Auto-Fall Detection: Operates on the nationwide AT&T cellular network and comes with two wearable pendants — a wristband and a neck pendant — in addition to the base station. The auto-fall detection add-on can detect a change in motion brought on by a sudden movement, such as falling and automatically connect to an operator.

Each product in the goVia line features 24/7 monitoring with a paid, monthly subscription which will connect users to trained emergency operators should they need assistance. Find the one that best suits your loved one and give the gift of empowered living and peace of mind. I love gifts that caregivers can give that give back to them!
