Express shipping is also available. The system, once received, can be installed and tested with our 24x7 Call Center and ready for service in about 10 minutes.

Absolutely, we can take that information for you over the phone or on our website.

The Bay Alarm Medical Alert System is designed for simplicity. The equipment consists of two components. First is the base station, which plugs into a standard electrical outlet and a standard phone jack. Second is the transmitter, which is a waterproof button worn as a necklace or wristband. In the event of an emergency, you simply press the button on the transmitter or on the base station and this will initiate a call to our 24x7x365 call center. An operator will speak to you through the base station and assess your situation. Our database will have the information you provided us for emergency contacts so we can make the appropriate calls to get you help, whether to a neighbor, friend, relative or emergency services.

When you press the Alert button on the pendant or base station a two-way voice call will be initiated with our Monitoring Center. Our Monitoring Technicians are dedicated to responding to medical emergencies.

When you sign up for our service, you will be asked to provide names and phone numbers for emergency contacts such as friends, relatives and neighbors. In the event of an emergency, our Monitoring Technicians will ask you who to contact. If our Technicians can not hear you, or if you request it, Emergency Medical Technicians will be immediately dispatched.

The system should work within most living areas depending on the number of walls and construction type. Our Monitoring Technicians are trained to treat every alarm as an emergency. If the signal reaches the base station and the operator cannot hear you, emergency services personnel will be automatically dispatched.

Depending on specific situations, the signal should be able to transmit 200-300 feet from the base station. Our Monitoring Technicians are trained to treat every alarm as an emergency. If the signal reaches the base station and the operator cannot hear you, emergency services personnel will be dispatched.

No, the unit will work on your existing phone line.

In the event of an emergency, the phone that's connected to the base station of our medical alert system will interrupt the call and contact the monitoring center.

If the unit gets unplugged from the electric outlet, a signal will be sent to the monitoring center and they will notify the client to plug the unit back in.

If you are on the phone connected to the medical alert system, the system will disconnect your call and send the emergency signal. If other phones in your house are in use then the system will try to dial the monitoring station 10 times. If it has still failed to communicate, the system will emit a high-pitched tone alerting that it has failed to communicate.

No, the base station acts as the receiver for your communication.

We recommend testing the system once a week by pushing the alert button on your pendant.

The battery in the Pendant can last up to 5 years. We recommend weekly testing to ensure that the battery is still operational. If the battery runs out we will replace it at no charge.

The battery in the base station can last up to 32 hours if the base station becomes unplugged.

The system should be placed in a central location if possible.

The pendant is completely waterproof. You should wear it at all times when home.

The medical alert system features a back-up battery that will operate your system for up to 32 hours. Before your battery runs out of power, the system sends a "low battery" signal to the monitoring center to warn that the system will soon be nonfunctional.

Absolutely, as long as you have a phone line and power we can provide service.

Yes, the system is designed for simple installation and typically takes only 5-10 minutes.

All you need is a standard electrical outlet and a standard phone jack. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a switch, to ensure that it is always receiving power. The medical alert system is configured to share a phone jack with an existing phone so you don't have to move anything.

The Bay Alarm Medical Alert System can be moved to any location in the US, but in the event of a move you will need to notify us so that we can update our emergency contact information. These changes are not recommended for moves of less than 2 weeks.

Yes, if at anytime you wish to change any of your information, e.g. medication, emergency contacts, etc., just call us at 1-877-7BAYMED (1-877-522-9633).

The system will work with rotary dial, pulse and tone phone lines.

No problem. When our Monitoring Technician comes on to ask you if everything is ok, simply tell them that you accidentally pushed the alarm. There is never any additional charge for false alarms.

In about 45 seconds you should hear the live voice of one of our Monitoring Technicians.
