Guest guest Posted October 26, 2002 Report Share Posted October 26, 2002 Lifeline w/voice assist Model # 6600S-M is the one I use here in Charlotte. I don't remember the brand of what I used in Lafayette when I was there. In LA. the ambulance service is who I called to get the unit, here in Charlotte, 3 different hospitals offer them. Here are 3 links that I have found that give info about them. I did not carefully go through each one so it is possible that you could order one online or call. I know that Lifeline is a patented trademark name. http://www.lifelinesys.com/ http://www.lifefone.com/ http://seniorsafety.com/ Hugs and Warm Fuzzies, Deborah aka Tenacity Personal website & photo's http://www.pdhangout.com http://community.webshots.com/user/tenacitywins Reply-To: shydrager To: <shydrager > Subject: Re: How to get people up from falls to the floor Date: Tue, 25 Oct 2011 08:14:36 -0700 Deborah, What is the name of your medi-alert system?
