My dad, who will be eighty next month, is a PLS patient. Can anyone recommend a life-alert/"I've fallen and I can't get up" style device. He lives independently, but he does need something in the way of an emergency device.

hello, we used a system called LifeLine, it worked very well and was absolutely dependable as long as the phone system was now down for some reason or other.
There is a new one out available through
Shoppers Home Health here in Canada it sounds like the same type of system.
I think we paid about $45.00 a month for the service. It was worth every cent !
Hope this helps you.
