Adding Fall Detection to Your Medical Alert System
Adding fall detection to your medical alert system helps make it more likely that you can get help if you need it.

It's a lifeline emergency alert that sends a signal to a monitoring center and then to your loved ones, who can try to reach you or call 911. Some devices also send GPS data, so they can tell emergency responders where to find you if you're in a location that's not covered by the primary device.

Lone Worker Alarms AU Currently, there are many types of systems that aim to detect falls (see Tables 4–6), including sensors worn on the skin, depth cameras, ambient sensors and ambient-aware sensor networks. While a few studies have shown promising results, these systems are still suffering from high false alarms and cannot provide 100% accuracy.

When you fall, this 1.4-ounce device sends a signal to your medical alert system and a representative from the company's monitoring center attempts to contact you.

However, most of the work done in this field has used simulated data and it is important to carry out experiments in real-life conditions (eg, older adults, in care facilities or furnished rooms) as well as with fall alarm systems.
