Alan Wu

Chief Marketing Officer

- 17 Years of Service

I have the privilege of serving as Chief Marketing Officer at Bay Alarm Medical. I believe deeply in loving what you do and doing what you love. What I am most proud of is helping build a brand rooted in experience, trust, and reliability that makes an often overwhelming decision easier for families choosing a medical alert provider.

Alan's Role at Bay Alarm Medical

As CMO, I am deeply involved in the design of our products, from the hardware we use, to service pricing, to the feedback we receive from our customers so we can improve what we offer.

Medical alert companies are service providers. None of the companies of the market make their medical devices; we all source them from third-party manufacturers. To make sure we offer the best products, my team and I stay current with all potential products, assessing their features, testing them, and evaluating compatibility with our monitoring centers. That means I’m familiar with just about every medical alert device you can buy from anyone.

Working with our customer support team, I understand the questions and problems seniors may have, from weak cell signal in rural areas, to memory issues that can cause wandering. I work to find solutions to these and find ways our technology can make lives better and longer.

How has a Medical Alert System Helped You?

My grandfather moved in with my parents and occupied a downstairs in-law around the time he turned 80. He took a fall one morning while in the bathroom and couldn’t help himself up. Luckily, my father was home on his day-off and heard my grandfather yell for help. Everything turned out okay as he only remained on the floor for a few minutes. However, that experience was enough for our family to set him up with a medical alert system.

He passed away in 2010. Fortunately, he never took another fall and never had to push the button but we were glad that if anything were to have happened, help would have been a simple push-button away.

Alan's Advice For Customers

Customers often come to us after an unforseen medical event. It’s usually an accidental fall, heart condition, or stroke. Whatever the case may be, the process of shopping for a medical alert system is never “fun” and is usually accompanied by fear or stress of making sure help is available should an incident happen again.

As a customer, you deserve a pleasant shopping experience that delivers dependable, budget-friendly peace of mind for you and your family. No pushy sales tactics, no bothersome follow-ups, and no upselling—just straightforward care.
