How does a medical alert system provide more reliability than a cell phone?3rd Act Medical Alerts System is better than a cell phone in emergencies.We can find you in an emergency. Many of us experience times in which our smartphone battery is not fully charged. Some Smartphones require face ID to open them, which isn't optimal in the event of an emergency. Also what if the digital voice assistant (i.e. Siri or Alexa) doesn't understand that you need help? Don't get us wrong cell phones are great to have but not always the best option in the event of a medical emergency. At 3rd Act with a press of The Button, a live attendant located in the U.S. will answer. There is two-way communication to understand your emergency and what you need. We can locate you through GPS. The Emergency Response team can also contact a caregiver, family member, or emergency squad.
