Experience, Reliability, and Expertise

Based in New Jersey and with service all across the United States, LifeStation has decades of experience specifically in the medical alert monitoring industry and is one our top three picks for 2022.

Buying Experience

As mentioned above, Lifestation has had a long history of providing medical alert systems to seniors and caregivers. In fact, they were one of the companies that went head to head with Life Alert and helped customers avoid being stuck in long-term contracts and unethical return policies. This has helped LifeStation outlast a lot of their competitors with their quality service and fair pricing.

With LifeStation’s brand new online checkout, ordering online has never been simpler. You can now order their In-Home or Mobile device directly from their website. LifeStation’s Customer Care Specialists are also always available to help you with your purchase.

In-Home Medical Alert Review

All of our recommended providers offer ultra-reliable in-home medical alert systems and LifeStation is no different. LifeStation differentiates their equipment that has a sleek and modern design that would be a welcome addition to many homes.

The finish hides dust, is easy to wipe, and was simply different than all the white boxes we reviewed this year. The box is very noticeable in the home and can be advantageous for seniors with weaker eyesight. You will not have a hard time trying to blend it in with your existing furniture and home decor.

Performance was as good as expected with any of our top three providers. More than acceptable connection speeds along with clear 2-way voice communication. The system also houses a 32 hour backup battery (in case of a power outage), additional waterproof buttons, and optional automatic fall detection.

Monthly pricing is $34.95/mo with a free month if you sign up for annual billing. Both automatic fall detection and AT&T’s 4G LTE cellular support (for those without a landline) are available at an additional cost.

Continuing with their modern design language, for 2022, LifeStation updated their on-the-go offering with a sleek mobile gps device and a wearable smartwatch for customers wanting a lower profile modern mobile medical alert alternative.

Both devices should be charged each night while not in active use. Battery life will largely depend on how strong your cellular connection is. Pricing starts at $37.95/mo for the Sidekick and $46.95/mo for the Sidekick Smart

What you see in the photo is what the package came with. LifeStation’s Mobile device now weighs approximately 2 and a half ounces and can comfortably be worn around your neck. Of course you will still have the option to carry the device inside a pocket or in a purse. Audio clarity was clear and audible and we didn’t have any issues communication with LifeStation’s in-house medical alert monitoring center. Connection time took about a minute from the moment the button was pushed. Automatic fall detection is available as an add-on option at at additional cost.

Find My Loved One

LifeStation has introduced text-message-based tracking to their mobile gps offering. With “FindMyLovedOne”, caregivers can track and pinpoint the location of their loved ones with a simple text message as shown in the above graphic.

Buyer’s Tip

Although most mobile GPS buttons are equipped with GPS, not all of them include GPS tracking software. This is especially important if you’re a caregiver/parent and purchasing the device strictly to track the whereabouts of your parent or child. Ask your medical alert provider if they have a tracking app prior to purchase.
