Replies to "Is Medical Alert the same as Medisafe? Thanks!"
Medisafe,
As I understand it is a computer app that helps assure a person takes their medication.
MedicAlert,
is a nonprofit worldwide organization that provides bracelets, necklaces, shoe tags, etc. to put medical information on and has an 800 number for medical personnel to call and MedicAlert provides a database and keeps various types of medical records, legal documents, medication list and physicians and emergency contacts. It’s a membership organization.
Medical alert systems,
The person wears a bracelet or something to press to contact an operator so emergency help can be dispatched.
As far as taking pills is concerned I have an automated pill dispensing machine. An alarm goes off every morning at 7 AM and when I dump out the pills the alarm goes off, I haven’t miss taking my medication since I got it you can dispense medication once or multiple times per day.
I’m not sure if I answered your question or not but there are others I’m sure who will come along.
Take care,
Jake.
Medisafe is name of a he app on the Apple Store (iphone/iPad). I am not sure if is under a different name for other devices.
