Although the risk of falls can be reduced by taking precautions such as managing one’s health and home, there’s always a chance an emergency can still occur. At Life Assure we believe it’s best to be prepared for any emergency, and our solution is the medical alert system.
With a medical alert system, you can call for help anytime and anywhere you need to protect yourself in the event of unexpected emergencies such as falls. We offer in-home medical alert systems for seniors who stay at home and mobile medical alert systems for those who remain mobile and are on the go.

Did you know? According to the World Health Organization, around 32% to 43% of people aged 70 or older experience a fall each year.(1) Specifically in Canada, falls were the leading cause of injury-related hospitalizations for people aged 65 or older in 2018/2019.(2)
Falls are expected to become even more common as the seniors population continues to grow in Canada. In 2019, nearly 1/5 of the Canadian population was made up of older adults. By 2040, older adults are projected to make up close to 1/4 of the population.(3)
A medical alert system can protect yourself or your loved ones in the event of a fall and help prevent injury or even death.
