The other day, a woman told me she wasn’t sure where to put the speaker box for her emergency button because she has a soft voice that doesn’t carry well. Often times, the elderly don’t have the same vocal power as when they were young.
In her case and in all cases, we recommend that you place your emergency button system in a central location inside the home. This way, no matter where you are when you press the emergency button and hopefully your voice will be able to carry for the dispatch to hear you. But, if you do have a soft voice, there is no need to worry. If for whatever reason the Senior Safety team cannot hear or understand you , we will immediately contact the paramedics. At Senior Safety, we would always rather be safe than sorry!
