Worrying is one of those things that I do too much of. Between family, home and job responsibilities, my plate is full and sometimes my stress level is higher than it should be. We have been trying out a Bay Alarm Medical system and it’s helping me worry less about my family while I’m not here. I partnered with Bay Alarm Medical to share this information with you today.

Bay Alarm Medical is Giving Me Peace of Mind
Years ago, Marty hurt his back moving wood. After physical therapy, steroid injections, and two failed surgeries, the damage is permanent and cannot be repaired. He has permanent nerve damage in one foot/leg and walks with a cane. While he is very independent, there are times that he loses his balance and falls. There are also a few medications that make him unsteady at times. When I’m away from home running errands or on trips, I worry about him needing help when he’s alone.
We have been considering some type of medical alarm but many of them are really expensive. We wanted something that would allow him to get help if he needed it but not lock us into expensive, long-term contracts. Bay Alarm Medical is as low as $25 per month and you can cancel at any time with no penalties or expensive fees to pay for.
When we were evaluating medical alarms, we wanted something that was easy enough for us to install ourselves. I didn’t want to have to hire anyone to run wiring or complicated equipment. With the Bay Medical Alarm, it’s simply a matter of plugging in a phone line and plugging an adapter into an electrical outlet. For those that don’t have a landline, they even offer a unit that works with your cellular phone instead of a landline. If you lose power, the unit we received has a 32-hour emergency backup battery.
I also appreciate that the Bay Alarm Medical has an emergency help button necklace that’s waterproof. Marty has fallen in the shower before and that is one place that I worry about him the most. Since this button is waterproof, he can wear it in the shower in case he falls or feels unsteady. There are even extra accessories you can get including things like wall buttons, a lockbox, and an extra button for yourself.
I love knowing that by using Bay Alarm Medical help is just a phone call away if Marty needs it. The system was so easy to set up and the price is definitely affordable. this means that both Marty and I can live our day to day lives worry free.

I try not to worry about my mom falling, which she has, and probably will always struggle with it. My sister is closer than I am but of course can’t be there 24/7 so something like this is indeed worth the cost.
I totally agree!
it’s a bit of reassurance even if he never needs to use it. I have to look into something like this for my mother soon.
Very true. I does help with peace of mind.
It’s best to have it!
Living in California, this is a great idea in case of an earthquake. Thank you for sharing!
I’m sure it would be!
I’ve considered systems like this for my elderly relatives. I like that this one is easy to use and has a straightforward plan instead of being complicated. Thank you for the info!
Glad to share!
It’s so reassuring to have a device like this in the home if someone has mobility issues or is struggling with the effects of ageing. The Bay Alarm Medical looks like a really great service.
It does give you great reassurance if you need it.
I think this is a great device for anyone who needs added safety like this. My mom could definitely use this.
It definitely is!
