Unpredictable tremors, muscle rigidity, and balance issues can make falls a frequent concern for individuals with Parkinson’s disease. If pressing a help button isn’t possible, our Sidekick mobile medical alert with fall detection ensures that emergency assistance is automatically summoned—even if you’re unable to call for help yourself.

Our advanced system uses three key technologies to detect falls accurately and trigger an emergency response:

• Accelerometers measure sudden changes in movement, identifying when a fall has occurred.
• Barometric sensors detect shifts in air pressure, distinguishing between standing and lying down.
• Smart algorithms differentiate real falls from accidental movements, reducing false alarms.

With automatic fall detection, individuals living with Parkinson’s can feel reassured knowing that help is always available, ensuring faster response times when mobility challenges lead to a fall.

Emergencies can be especially overwhelming for individuals with Parkinson’s disease, where tremors, stiffness, or difficulty speaking may make communication harder. While all medical alert services respond to emergencies, LifeStation goes further by offering continuous reassurance and support until help arrives.

If desired, our trained emergency operators stay on the line from the moment the help button is pressed, offering calm and compassionate guidance to reduce anxiety and confusion.

Whether your loved one is experiencing a fall, sudden immobility, or distress from Parkinson’s symptoms, they’ll never have to navigate the situation alone. With LifeStation, individuals managing Parkinson’s disease and their families can feel secure knowing that help is on the way and that a reassuring presence is always there.
