Anthony--We had one for my MIL from the local hospital..If you hit the button it
was set up to call & check on you..It had a bedside voice activated unit..so you
could speak into & tell them to call your parents when they checked. If you
didn't respond they then calloed 911 & your contacy info. Was about 15.00 a
month...Try your local hospital..they should know.   Also ADT now offers a pager
button system...they only call your contact.   Joy
