VRI Medical Alert System
- More than one third of adults 65 and older fall each year in the United States (Hornbrook et al. 1994; Hausdorff et al. 2001).
- Among older adults, falls are the leading cause of injury deaths. They are also the most common cause of nonfatal injuries and hospital admissions for trauma (CDC 2005).
- The rates of fall-related deaths among older adults rose significantly over the past decade (Stevens 2006).

Important questions to help you decide if it's time for a personal emergency response alarm.
- Are you living alone or frequently spend periods of time alone while in your home?
- Do you have any medical conditions that may incapacitate you without warning, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, past surgeries, arthritis, diabetes or other medical concerns?
- Are you ever concerned about falling or consider yourself to be at risk of falling?
- Is your vision poor and pressing a button for help would be easier than trying to use a standard phone in an emergency?
- Do you ever need assistance from others or find difficulty when using steps, standing up, carrying items or other similar activities?
- Do you have difficulty remembering phone numbers or addresses of nearby relatives or friends?
- Do you care for someone on a part time basis and need a way to be contacted if he or she has an emergency when you are not able to be there?
