Utilizing a Philips Lifeline Auto Alert with Fall Detection as an Epileptic
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that causes excessive and abnormal brain cell activity resulting in seizures. In the United States, more than 250,000 cases are diagnosed each year and millions of people are living with the disease. Sadly, the disease can be fatal, and can lead to strokes, when an epileptic is left untreated after a major seizure. Therefore, the Philips Lifeline Auto Alert with Fall Detection is a wonderful option for someone living with epilepsy.
The device enables an automatic call for help if a fall is detected, even if you are unable to press the alert button. The call will be received by a fully staffed response center, which will dispatch the help you need when you need it most. To date, the system has detected over 200,000 falls, more than any other medical alert service according to https://www.lifeline.philips.com.
