Bill's Journey to Peace of Mind with LifeWatch's Monitored SmartWatch

Professional Monitoring Anywhere All the Time

Meet Bill, a retired construction project manager, whose story is both heartwarming and a gentle reminder of the importance of safety and peace of mind in our golden years.

Bill is 81 years old and in good health, a spry and energetic man who finds joy in every corner of his life. His days are spent on his beautiful 100-acre property, a slice of heaven he shared for many years with his beloved wife. This picturesque log home, nestled among woods and pasture, is a sanctuary where Bill can indulge in his passions. Whether it's fishing in the serene ponds, riding his beloved horses, or simply soaking in the beauty of nature, Bill's property is a testament to a life well-lived and well-loved.

However, Bill's idyllic life is not without its challenges. The nearest town is a good 15-minute drive away, and the closest hospital is 45 minutes out, a considerable distance in an emergency. Bill’s only son lives a couple of hours away, checking in as often as he can. While Bill has a strong support system through his neighbors and friends from his church, who are always ready to lend a hand, the reality of living alone on such a vast property has its risks.

Recently, Bill experienced a medical scare. Thankfully, it was a false alarm, but it was a wake-up call for Bill and his loved ones. The incident sparked a conversation about what would happen if he ever found himself in a real emergency, far from immediate help.

Determined to maintain his independence while ensuring his safety, Bill decided to invest in a LifeWatch Monitored SmartWatch. This decision was driven by a desire to live without constant worry and to provide peace of mind not only for himself but for his family and friends as well.

The LifeWatch Monitored SmartWatch is a game-changer for seniors like Bill. Here’s how it works:

The watch operates on AT&T's cellular network, ensuring reliable communication between the wearer and monitoring agents. It also utilizes GPS technology for precise location tracking. In case of an emergency, Bill can press the SOS button on the side of the watch, or if the watch detects a suspected fall, it automatically sends an alert to the monitoring center.

Once an alert is triggered, Bill has 10 seconds to cancel it in case it was a false alarm. If not canceled, the monitoring center receives the signal, and trained professionals attempt to establish voice communication with Bill through the watch. They assess the situation and, depending on how Bill’s account is set up, will contact those listed in his emergency contact list and/or 911.

Those on the contact list also have the option of getting Bill's location anytime by texting "Find Bill" to the number assigned to Bill's watch. They'll then receive a link to Google Maps with Bill's location.

This advanced technology allows Bill to continue enjoying his active lifestyle without the fear of being alone in a crisis. For Bill, this smartwatch is more than just a device; it's a lifeline that bridges the gap between independence and security. It's a reassurance that, no matter what, he is never truly alone. His son, neighbors, and friends from church all breathe easier knowing that Bill has a reliable means of getting help quickly if needed.
