Today, the concept of personal security response systems is something that many people think of as a home security feature for senior citizens.
They are seen as something that comes on a necklace or bracelet by a grandparent or elder acquaintance or relative that signifies that an impending medical emergency is just around the corner.
Whether for a specific ailment or condition such as limited mobility due to a walker or wheelchair, or simply due to old age's risk for slips, trips, falls and other accidents, these buttons have proven time and again to be real lifesavers when individuals find that independent living may cause risk of medical emergency.
The quick push of a button summons the correct emergency personnel to your door, emergency personnel that already have your medical history in hand when they arrive.
Without having to make a phone call or even reach the telephone, such systems can be immediately activated by touching the emergency button.
Now, however, many people are expanding their idea of who exactly should be using such a system.
Known as a 'panic button,' this feature can come with many home security systems that are used by a variety of homeowners and renters.
Some of the top candidates for such a system are listed below.
Families.
Of course, most users of such a system are families and homeowners, but those with young children or teenagers especially can benefit from such a panic button system.
Although children obviously should not have such a button on their person at all times, sometimes there is probable cause to do so.
For example, when children are left home alone it can be a great way to ensure that help comes quickly without having to worry about dialing phone numbers and giving out personal information.
Such devices can also be beneficial to keep in or near children's rooms for remote activation of an emergency response system automatically should a home emergency ever befall and children or family members need immediate help.
Do It Yourselfers.
People who like to climb on roofs, ladders and chairs fixing, tweaking or changing this that and the other thing around the house suffer a large number of serious injuries or even deaths each year due to slips, trips, falls and other accidents.
A huge home security risk that lands many people in the hospital every year, prevention is the best way to minimize such accidents.
Sometimes, however, things happen, and it's impossible after to summon help, thereby making the accident's effects far worse.
Having such a button right on your belt loop, around your neck, or on your wrist enables the wearer to summon medical assistance right away, thereby increasing the chances that a small accident will only amount to a small inconvenience.
Medical Recoveries.
Anyway who has had a surgery or other medical care in the recent past knows that sometimes things can quickly take a turn for the worse.
Many medical patients, not just senior citizens, such as cancer patients, those with diabetes, or those who have suffered head injuries often wear such devices to summon medical assistance as quickly as possible.
When the medical personnel arrive they already know your history and your medical needs, meaning you get the best possible care out there right away.
This can be especially helpful when recovering at home solo, instead of hiring on professional personal medical help full time which can be expensive and inconvenient.
