LifeFone's Mobile Caregiver app enhances the experience while creating an additional level of security and peace of mind for caregivers. November has arrived ushering in big changes in the weather. It also reminds us that the holiday season is near and that the year 2021 is almost behind us.
What we often don't recognize is that November is also National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize the roles, responsibilities and sacrifices that caregivers endure day-in and day-out.Here are a few things to consider when recognizing all that caregivers do to keep our loved ones safe and comfortable as they age.
The new VIPx medical alert system has finally arrived and with it comes some additional help for both users and caregivers in the form of LifeFone's optional Caregiver Mobile App. When retirement is around the corner, most seniors plan to downsize. Retirement is a new beginning for them rather than an ending-they move to a new house in a new area with new neighbors.

SCAM, they do nothing but lie claiming non-compatible with service when all they want is to get you to sign up for AT&T which double profits them. NO THANKS I'll find a legit service, even if IT COST MORE. Dependability is everything and I don't think they are. I didn't want to give it any stars, they made me give 1.

I have been using LifeFone for 7 years and am very happy with their service. The first few years I used the traditional service where I would alert them from my medallian if I was in distress. A few years later, because of the progression of my disability, I opted for a service where I call in each morning to let them know I am alright. Considering my family is 3,000 miles away, the connection I have with LifeFone gives them peace of mind knowing that I am alright. If I do not call in, LifeFone operators will reach out to my neighbors and family. If there is no response, an ambulance is called

December 12, 2018 was a bittersweet day for me. The walker I ordered for my 85-year-old mother arrived and I called Life Fone to order a medical alert service in the event another fall occurs and no one is present. They call this heart-breaking transition ‘The Long Goodbye’ … watching our parents be overtaken by the unfortunate things that accompany old age like falling down, dementia, hearing loss, sight loss, hair loss, etc. My mom recently endured a difficult life change in that she had to move from her home state to the state where I live to be closer to a family member. To say that understanding

Having Liifefone is like having an insurance policy. Now, when I leave the house, I can be assured that my mother will be wonderfully and efficiently taken care of if she requires medical help. All she needs to do is push her pendant.... and help will come in minutes!
Lifefone will call an ambulance, the fire department, a family member or a friend if needed!
Thank you, Lifefone!

I really love the fact that Lifefone has given my family member the confidence to feel safe and secure being on their own. They love the fact that their system can be used for in and out of the home since they are independent and always on the move. The best part I believe are the staff members, from the sales representatives that do not make you feel as if you have to purchase something to the EXCELLENT customer service skills from the people who answer the alarms. I would definitely refer anyone who is looking for an emergency system to purchase with Lifefone.

Lifefone has been great for my mom-- we have had this service for several years & through a few close calls, the response has been quick and professional. Since i don't live in the same state, I feel like we have really been in good hands with Lifefone and I'd highly recommend the service. Always kind on the phone as well. Thanks

My mom had LifeFone for years after my dad passed and until she moved in to assisted living. It made her feel secure and it gave me tremendous peace of mind. She is quite picky, and yet she told me how much she liked their customer service. That is a miracle. They do a great job, and they really made us feel like they cared. I highly recommend them.

I have had a very positive experience with LifeFone. I ordered the service in June 2017 and had them expedite the equipment so that I could set it up for my mother on my next trip to Houston. Setting it up was easy and we made a couple of test runs which exceeded my expectation in both timeliness and professional response.
In August, my 92 year old mother's home was flooded after hurricane Harvey. She lost everything. When I called LifeFone to report the damage, they immediately told me they would refund the payment for unused service and waive my equipment return charge. This company actually

My mother-in-law was starting to have breathing problems and it was beginning to worry the family because she lives at least 8 hours from the nearest relative. We called around to get information and finally decided upon LifeFone because their prices were good and the reps were much more informative, and less pushy, than some of the other companies.
Since we got the system, she has had to use it twice - one of those times was during the middle of the night. The agents who answered her alarm were helpful and kept her calm. They also called to tell us that she was having trouble and was on the

My parents used Lifefone for many years. It provided them, and me, with total peace of mind! I have recommended this service to many people. My mother was in a wheelchair (paralyzed) and couldn't activate the Lifefone service, so my dad wore the wrist bracelet. If something happened to either of them, he could press the button and the central office would contact them. If my dad was unable to speak to them my mother would be able to communicate via the speakerphone provided by Lifefone. They did have to activate the service a couple of times and one time the neighbor, who was on the account

I ordered the Lifefone system for my father. When he passed away, I was instructed by Marty, the person who sold me the system, to return the equipment to their New York offices and he would arrange for contract cancelation. Upon receipt of the returned equipment, the New York staff contacted me 3 times to ask why I was returning it. I explained that my dad had passed and as I had written on the paperwork accompanying the returned equipment, we needed the contract canceled. I saw the continuing charges on my Visa bill, called Marty who said he could do nothing. He gave me a number to Lifefone

My mother has had LifeFone's medical alarm service for almost five years, since my dad passed. She is very sharp and particular about everything, including customer service. For that reason, I was relieved and pleased when she has told me - repeatedly - that she finds the operators to be very nice and very helpful. She hardly ever likes a customer service person, so I know they must be good. If she forgets to test in a given month, they call to remind her. If she presses her button by accident, they're very gracious and reassuring to her. This gives me tremendous peace of mind
