Medical ID vs. Personal Emergency Response System: what’s the difference?
A medical ID is an engraved bracelet or necklace with your health info, such as your name, conditions, allergies, emergency contact. If you can’t speak in an emergency, it speaks for you.
A PERS (like an American Alert) is a digital device connected to a 24/7 monitoring service. You press a button and help is summoned.
So which one do you need? It depends on your situation, but many people could benefit from both.
Do you wear one, the other, or both? Let us know in the comments!
