  1. Important Things to Consider When Buying the Best Personal Alarms

  2. Personal alarms are essential tools to ensure safety and security for the people you love, especially for the elderly. It’s a way to ensure that they are safe while also allowing them to be independent. Personal alarms keep seniors safe, but they also allow them to do their responsibilities while also helping you ease your worries, especially in emergency situations. You’re probably considering investing in personal alarms. If you’re looking forward to buying one for your loved one, here are some of the important things to consider to make sure that you are buying the best personal alarms you are looking for.

  3. Reason for Buying To ensure that you are buying the perfect personal alarm suitable to your needs, you need to align it with your whys and who’s – why are you buying it? And who are you buying it for? This helps you determine which type of personal alarm to get, depending on your needs and preference. Ask yourself these questions: ● Do you want it to work only at a certain distance?● Do you want it to be triggered only when pressed?● Or are you looking for a personal alarm that will provide you with a 24/7 monitoring or surveillance service? Answering these questions lets you narrow down your choices. With this, you can make informed decisions and easily find what you are looking for that will best aid your senior loved one.

  4. The Design & Usability The next thing to consider then is its design and usability. Although the style may be the least of your concern when it comes to personal alarms in Australia, this can be essential, especially if you consider your loved ones’ preferences. By introducing options, your loved one can select a device that is comfortable for them to use. Not to mention, the device will be with them for almost – if not the entire day. That said, you can choose between two of the different kinds of personal alarms: ●The Pendant Style Alarm or one that they can easily wear and press in case of emergencies. This is much easier to use, and although it can be dangly, it isn’t much of an issue. Using it is easy, too, since all you have to do to call for assistance is to press the button, and that’s it. ●Smartwatch Style Alarm has more features. Aside from the call button, it lets you download multiple apps on it like Spotify, etc. However, the disadvantage of this is that it can be difficult for older people to navigate since it has a small screen.

  5. Features You Want It To Have Another important thing to consider is its features. You want it to have a longer battery life, especially if the person using it has a tendency to forget to charge it overnight. Consider also the following: ● Number of Allowed Contacts● And if it has water or dust resistance. Security Alarm Features Since this is the main reason for your purchase, you have to consider and assess whether the device that you are looking for has the following features: ● Fall Detection. This is especially important so that you can respond to fall risks.● Geo-Fencing Features, which lets you set up a virtual fence. This is helpful, especially in cases of people with memory problems that can tend to wander off.● GPS Location to track their whereabouts, especially if they’re signalling for help;● Speed Alarm to detect any fast movements, i.e. person is in a vehicle.● Non-Movement Detection Alarm that notifies you if there hasn’t been any movement for a specific amount of time.

  6. Budget And last but not least, consider your budget. Personal security comes at a price. Remember that the sticker price is not the only cost to consider when buying a personal alarm. Some of them come with an attached monthly fee that can add up over time. So make sure to consider it before buying it carefully.
