LogicMark’s new Freedom Alert has two features that make it stand out as truly innovative in the market place. First, is that it’s the world’s smallest two-way voice communicator;
Another unique feature of LogicMark’s technology was the introduction of the two-way speakerphone pendant. While other devices on the market requires a person to shout across the house to a speakerphone box to communicate to the monitoring station, LogicMark’s technology put the speakerphone right in the miniature pendant. You can be anywhere in or around your home and communicate effortlessly.
On July 1st, 2009 Freedom Alert will be available. The user has no monthly fees to pay, and the user talks directly through the miniature speakerphone pendant. “The true innovation of Freedom Alert is that the user can program up to four numbers into the base unit. When the pendant panic button is pushed – the first number is dialed. If no one answers – the second number is automatically dialed, etc. Should no one answer after all the programmed numbers have been attempted – then Freedom Alert will dial 911 to guarantee a response. Once someone is reached communication occurs right through the speakerphone pendant. No shouting across the house to the speakerphone box.”
Use these four programmable numbers to contact family and friends. A typical user might enter their daughter’s cell phone number and their neighbor’s home number. With the Freedom Alert, these contacts are just a push button away when the person is anywhere in their home or even in their yard. The pendant can operate up to 600 ft away from the base station. The base station plugs into any standard phone jack in the home. The pendant can be worn on a neck lanyard, on the included belt clip or the included wrist-strap.
According toThe New England Journal of Medicine: “One out of every 3 people over the age of 65 will fall this year. 28% of these individuals die due to help not arriving quick enough. Only 38% of those who do survive the trauma return to living independently.”
Freedom Alert’s has a onetime purchase of only $299. This means affordable care for anyone living alone is finally available. MASH, Inc. can be contacted at 1-800-768-9182 or www.shopmash.com
Facts on Emergencies:
Research supports the common sense notion that getting prompt help makes surviving an emergency more likely. The ability to get help also boosts the odds that a senior will continue to live independently. The longer a person spends helpless, the greater the likelihood he/she will be discharged into supportive care. For elderly people who live alone, becoming incapacitated and unable to get help is a common event, which usually marks the end to their ability to live independently.

Facts on Falling
50% of people who fall require assistance from someone else to get up. After a fall or other emergency, 90% of people who get help within one hour will continue independent living, but after 12 hours without help only 10% of people will continue to live at home. (New England Journal of Medicine)
