How do I contact Life Alert about a medical alarm at a known address?

Answer

Medical alert accounts are handled by the monitoring company, not by guessing device locations online. Contact Life Alert or the named monitoring provider through official support with the subscriber’s account details, and call emergency services immediately if someone may be in danger.

Before you start: stop right away if…

  • If someone may need immediate medical help, call local emergency services first.

Follow these steps

  1. Decide if emergency help is needed first

    If someone may be injured, unresponsive, or in immediate danger, call local emergency services right away. Do not wait on medical-alert customer service for an active emergency.

    You should see: Emergency responders are contacted when needed, or you confirm this is only an account or equipment question.

  2. Collect account and device identifiers

    Write down the subscriber name, service address, phone number on the account if known, and any member ID, serial number, or company name printed on the base unit or pendant.

    You should see: You have the details official support typically asks for before discussing a medical alarm account.

  3. Contact the official monitoring company

    Use the phone number or support form from the device label, account paperwork, or the company’s official website. Ask for help locating service or account options for that subscriber address.

    You should see: Support verifies what they can share and explains next steps for the account or equipment.

  4. Follow only authorized account instructions

    Complete any identity checks the company requires. If they cannot discuss the account with you, ask what an authorized account holder must do instead.

    You should see: You either get official guidance or a clear explanation of who must contact support.

Gather the subscriber name, service address, and any account or device ID on the base unit. Use only the company’s official phone number or website.
