Analyst Summary: Bay Alarm Medical Mobile GPS Medical Alert
This product is a go-anywhere type alert, using a cellular connection directly from the "wearable" to communicate with the monitoring service. In this case the "wearable" is larger than the more traditional home-type medical alert pendant, and is not waterproof. There is no home base station and so this is really meant for when you are out and about, rather than when you are at home. It comes with a fall detection capability as an optional extra.
