MedicalAlertBuyersGuide.org is the largest independent website dedicated to testing medical alert systems and other products that help senior citizens live better lives. Each year over 500,000 people rely on our team of dedicated professionals to provide expert, independent advice on senior safety.
Our Mission
Whether you’re a professional caregiver, an adult looking to get a system for your mom and dad, or a senior seeking to help you continue living safely and independently in your home, our mission is to provide you with clear, concise and up-to-date information so you can choose a medical alert provider for your situation.
How We Test
Our team performed 12,000 hours of research on 16 leading medical alert brands. We followed that with over 520 hours of hands-on testing conducted by our team. We used secret shoppers to purchase leading medical alerts systems and evaluate all steps of the experience: from buying the system, to setting it up, and real-life testing, including simulating falls.
