In Healthy Living, we see how a new tech solution now summons help and can also coach seniors on how to stay strong.

The cost of the is $299.

Since it does not use a call center, there is no monthly monitoring fee.

While the user can initiate a call by tapping on the device, the MyNotifi also uses an algorithm to detect if a person has fallen, and alerts the people in the wearer’s network.
