INS LifeGuard • November 3, 2022
When living in a retirement community, the need for a medical alert system is quite essential. A medical alert system is used as an additional precaution when living independently.
Are you looking to upgrade or instal new technology in your independent living or retirement village? Read on to find out why so many choose INS LifeGuard as their medical alarm and personal alarm provider.
What is a Medical Alert System?
A medical alert system is an emergency response system used to help seniors and disabled individuals in case of a sudden health crisis. A medical alert system consists of two main components: the base unit, which usually stays at home, and the pendant or wrist watch-style water-proof emergency button which be used in around the home. The person using the system will wear the medical alert device at all times, allowing for a smooth and effortless way to call for help in an emergency.

Recently a large independent living group commissioned a white paper comparing the various monitoring services and after a comprehensive market analysis, they chose to stay with INS. Their report’s recommendations stated amongst other things:
"4G intercom technology solution is best in class, building upon their reputation of reliable systems with the ongoing monitoring service that residents are familiar with, we are confident that it will deliver the peace of mind our residents need."
"Their competitive advantage is that their service is staffed by highly qualified and experienced nurses and other health care professionals, 24 hours a day, seven days a week."
"No other supplier’s emergency call centre provides nurses as the first point of contact and relies on escalation protocols."
"In an emergency when every second could count, this distinction in our view makes it hard to recommend any other supplier.”
“Furthermore, feedback from existing residents is that they are familiar with their processes and in our research, their response times are best in class."
