What is ADT Medical Alert?

The ADT Medical Alert system has two primary components. The first component is a base station that establishes communication with the monitoring center during emergency situations. The second is a waterproof pendant or wristband, which can be submerged up to three feet for up to 30 minutes.

How does ADT Medical Alert work?

In an emergency, you press the built-in button on the pendant or wristband. This action triggers an immediate alert at the monitoring center, initiating communication through the base station.

  1. Connect to center: ADT’s emergency monitoring center is available 24/7 and offers multilingual support.
  2. Talk to the operator: You can request help or tell the center it was a false alarm. The monitoring center automatically notifies first responders if you can't communicate verbally.
  3. Get local help: Once emergency responders are on their way, the monitoring center alerts your contact list in the order you’ve provided them. (You can also request the call center notify your contacts before emergency responders.)

ADT Medical Alert costs

Each ADT Medical Alert plan comes with a base unit and a waterproof (when submerged up to three feet for up to 30 minutes) wearable device, but the look and features of each unit vary based on your plan. You can also upgrade to a fall detection pendant for an extra $11 per month. There is a $99 activation fee for all devices.

*Note that the $0 equipment cost excludes add-ons.

ADT Medical Alert plans and pricing

ADT’s upfront medical alert system costs are cheaper than some other companies because there are no equipment charges (the base system remains owned by ADT).

However, your monthly cost increases as eligible items are added — for instance,  is an extra $11 per month, and it costs an extra $2.99 per month if you want to add an emergency wall button.

  • Medical Alert Basic: This package is designed for in-home use and starts at $31.99 per month with a $99 activation fee. It requires a landline and includes home temperature monitoring features. The pendant has a range of up to 300 feet from the base.
  • Medical Alert Plus: This package, which doesn’t require a landline, starts at $39.99 per month with a $99 activation fee. It also comes with home temperature monitoring, and fall detection is optional with this package. The pendant has a 600-foot range.
  • On-The-Go: This package comes with a mobile base unit, GPS location capabilities and optional fall detection. It starts at $41.99 per month with a $99 activation fee.

ADT Medical Alert FAQ

How accurate is ADT’s fall detection?

It’s hard to say. No fall detection system is perfect, so customers who need assistance should always press the emergency button if they can. There is no automatic testing for ADT Medical Alert systems, so the company advises customers to test the fall detection at least once per month.

There are two ways to test your fall detection:

  1. Press the help button and, once connected to the monitoring center, tell the operator you are testing the system.
  2. Drop the fall detection pendant from a height of approximately 18 inches. It should take 20 to 30 seconds to interpret the movement and determine if a fall has occurred.

uses close proximity sensors to detect falls and alert the ADT Medical Alert Emergency Response Center. If a user is unconscious, the company's operator will be able to dispatch for help.

Will my home system work if the power goes out?

Yes, all base units come with a built-in backup battery. Medical Alert Plus works up to 24 hours; Medical Alert Basic works up to 20 hours.

Do ADT Medical Alert systems come with a guarantee?

If you drop the unit and it stops working, ADT will replace it for free. However, if you lose or damage the buttons, there is a charge for replacements.

Is there a contract required for ADT Medical Alert?

No, ADT Medical Alert does not require a long-term contract. You can cancel the service at any time and continue using the service through your last billing period.

Do I need a landline for ADT’s Medical Alert system?

You only need a landline if service is not available in your area. However, ADT states that most customers are covered by its AT&T LTE services.

Still have questions?

Does ADT make a good medical alert?

Yes. As of publishing, ADT is one of our top picks for medical alerts. Reviewers like that ADT Medical Alert provides a sense of security, both for the wearer and their loved ones. Some reviewers say the device can be a little too sensitive, but we don’t see that as an overly bad thing. In these situations, reps are generally patient and understanding. What’s important is that it works when you need it.

ADT’s On-The-Go device is an excellent option for active adults who want the support of a monitored medical alert system without being tethered to their homes. The system has a portable base unit about the size of a pager, which lets you get help wherever you are. This portable medical alert system is designed for users on the go, ensuring coverage beyond the home.

The Medical Alert Plus in-home system has a decent range of 600 feet, and the base station has a digital screen that displays the temperature, date, time and battery level.

      I started using ADT years ago after I fell and broke my shoulder badly. I lived alone, and my sons said I needed to get something where I could call for help if I needed to. The customer service reps have always been very nice, both on the phone and when they've had to come out. I like the equipment because I've always had this particular kind, and I know what to do with it. But I don't have the necklace anymore because it got too expensive. I switched to the cheaper one.

      When I contacted an ADT agent about purchasing a medical alert for my husband with Parkinsons, I was assured that if we couldn't get The ADT signal at our rural location, we could send the unit back and all monies would be returned. That is not true. $139.21 was removed from my credit card account. I was refunded $40. I was told the $98.29 still owed was a non refundable activation fee. The sales agent did not tell me there would be a nonrefundable activation fee. The medical alet unit did not activate, so there should be no fee. I will never consider purchasing an ADT product again. I recommend caution when doing business with them.

      If you are considering ADT Health (ADT Medical Alert) for an aging relative, be extremely cautious. While ADT’s main home security division may be fine, their ADT Health division showed zero compassion, horrible customer service, and rigid financial policies during a family bereavement. We ordered an ADT Health system for my stepfather, but tragically, he passed away before the equipment even arrived at the house. When I contacted ADT Health to cancel:

      • I was instructed to return the unopened equipment, which I did immediately.
      • Despite the system never being activated or used, they insisted I was still responsible for a 3-month fee totaling $126.
      • I provided official proof by sending a copy of his death certificate, hoping reasonable human empathy would prevail. They refused to waive the charge.

      • Zero Condolences: Throughout multiple conversations, not a single representative offered condolences or acknowledged the situation. Instead, they were rude, aggressive, and solely focused on collecting payment.

      I have been a loyal customer of ADT Home Security for over 15 years with a fully loaded system with all the bells and whistles. When I brought this up, it made zero difference. ADT Health operates as a separate division and treats long-standing brand loyalty as completely irrelevant. A medical alert company's primary audience consists of elderly individuals and vulnerable individuals. Dealing with illness and loss is an inevitable part of this business, yet ADT Health handles these delicate situations with cold indifference and money-grabbing policies. Bottom Line: Do not expect compassion or fair treatment from ADT Health if your family's circumstances change unexpectedly. Look for a medical alert provider with month-to-month contracts, flexible death-cancellation clauses, and basic human decency.

      My now departed mother bought/rented this device for a period of over 12 years after having had a stroke. The main reason she purchased it was her fear of falling/fainting while being alone. Sadly, 2 weeks ago, my dear mother was found on the floor wearing her Safe Alert ADT Medical device, and by that time, she had suffered another stroke and was gone. Her device never detected her fall, nor did it alert anyone. As far as we are concerned, this device has only one purpose: to give a false sense of security. PLEASE DO NOT TRUST THIS DEVICE FOR YOUR LOVED ONES.

      My wife was ambulatory when we got the medical alert. She doesn't use it now because she's in bed 24 hours a day and has a full-time caregiver, so it's just a backup system. But it was effective when she was using it, and ADT has been very prompt about letting us know if the battery is down or if there is a problem with the device. Our daughter had it before, and we had several incidents where she used it, ADT alerted us, and they were immediately on it.

      I decided on ADT Medical Alert because I have ADT for my home security. I've been with them for more than 20 years, and in fact, just updated it.

      I have eczema, and the one around my neck was just irritating it. I couldn't wear it in my pocket because I might set off the alarm when I sit down, so I called to see if I could get the watch, and I did. The tech who came out here was so wonderful. He walked me through the whole thing and showed me how the system looks.

      I can't say enough about ADT because I really do like it. When I wear my watch, I know that it's there for my convenience in getting help right away, especially being a senior. I even take a shower with it, which I didn't know beforehand that I could do. I had called to see if I could get the alert where I could do that, and the gentleman said those two alerts I already have are waterproof, as long as I don't go swimming with them.

      Now I feel comfortable because I don't have to worry. If I feel dizzy or not feel well or I fall, all I have to do is push the button. I haven't had any problems with it until recently.

      I got an email about a week ago that the system was gonna go down and then come back on, and that my alert would signal me when it's ready. The base is showing the green that it's active, but the watch never beeped to say that it was back online, so I don't know if it's working. I've been meaning to call to see what to do.

      I was outside in my little garden in the yard and I fell. I was able to get myself up and told my oldest granddaughter about it, and she said I need to get a medical alert. In return, her father, my oldest son, and his wife looked into it and they thought that ADT was the best for me. My daughter-in-law has a different brand. When it came, my son turned it on and it has been working ever since. I wear it every day because I’m in the house by myself.

      It’s very alert because I can be taking a bath and pull my clothes off and touch it, and right away, ADT gets in touch with me and calls to see if I’m okay. I have not had to use it for an emergency, but whenever it’s been touched or dropped, somebody calls. So that’s a blessing for me. I appreciate my son and my daughter-in-law getting it for me.

      The little white part is good for me, but the other part that actually answers the call, I have to put it on because if I fall and it’s inside the house, I couldn’t answer. So, it’s a two-piece device, and it’s kind of heavy for me. It would be better if it could just be one piece. But I still wear it because I could stumble if I go downstairs. The only time I don’t wear it is when I go to bed at night. I put it on the charger.

      It gives me security that somebody would be able to see about me until maybe one of my kids could get to me. It’s good for any disabled or elderly person to have.

      The experience with the service has been great. It was after three visits with my grandmother where we had a very continuous and frequent call to 911. It was just like a struggle, not with the ambulance, but the situation itself. Then we had one of her doctors tell us that it would be great if we could connect with ADT Medical Alert. And we did. So far, we haven't really used it. But there's a rest in our mind that if something happens, we just press the button and we’re gonna be served.

      Every day, we are very aware of it. We are always charging it. Sometimes we forget and they call us and that's great. My grandmother is aware where it is and the person that takes care of her also knows where it is. Lately, she hasn't been able to move around a lot so this is for security.

      The medical alert is great. The only problem I have is they do the testing at nighttime. Like last week, I got into bed and had a little backache. No sooner I got into bed, it was like 11 o’clock at night, and it was flashing to do a test. Sometimes it’s 1 o’clock in the morning.

      I was sick and my son thought I should have a medical alert. I accidentally called when I leaned over on the one on my neck, and it pushed the button. It’s comforting to know that it’s there. Since I’ve been better, I only wear it when I go outside or in the basement or garage to do anything. The plastic part on the wrist of the watch kind of gets in the way because it’s a little thick and doesn’t always stay flat. The cord also irritates my neck. It’s a little clumsy to wear every day but otherwise, I’d been more than satisfied with the service and everything else.

Since it sometimes goes off when my husband bumps into something or if he crosses his arms or leans across something, he tends to wear it inside his shirt so it takes a major fall before it goes off. As it is, if he fell, he could take it off his neck and hit it against the floor, but if he fell and had a head injury, he couldn’t.

      I like the fact that the people were very nice. My medical alert has gone off several times, and they all have immediately contacted me. They rechecked it and did a very nice job. A couple of times that I didn’t know what to do, the person instructed me very calmly and nicely, and got me straightened up. So they were teaching me as well. I am very satisfied.

      I had my mother on a system and the price is comparable to what I paid for hers. And that was several years ago. So, the cost is acceptable. I don’t particularly like wearing the black cord around my neck. I wish it had a chain that would be a little more dressy because it doesn’t look very good with real gold or silver necklaces.

      I was falling a lot and needed help. I looked at a number of different medical alert devices, and ADT had the right price and program for me. I’ve been very happy with them. Once a month, they send me the light flashes, and I have to call them. They check my device to make sure it’s working okay. When I did have an incident, they kept calling my contacts, and then called an ambulance. I have no complaints.

      I also fell in the kitchen a couple years ago and I broke my hip. Everybody around me was calling me. I reached over and pressed on my wristwatch, and I got ADT right away. I’m much more secure.

      I've had an ADT alert for so many years and I've had no problem with it. They've been nothing but cooperative if I've had a problem. I wear it 24 hours a day. It gives me a little security. One time I fell and my daughter came over and I hadn't called ADT. I forgot about it around my neck and she used it to call them. It's a little sketchy though that I have to wait quite a few more minutes before somebody comes on. But if I’m patient, we finally connect. Other than that, I've had no problems.

      I heard about the ADT medical Alert from my little brother who still lives in Alaska. He was working on stuff that I needed. I was challenged by a few things. I moved from Texas over here to Saint George, Utah, in an apartment. My husband died so they wanted to make sure that I feel safe and that I am safe. If I have a seizure, or other health stuff, at least I have something.

      I usually wear it at home. When I go out, I always have it in my purse. Or sometimes I keep it on my neck. When you're a person that has epilepsy, if you have seizures, you gotta keep an eye on it. When my husband was still here, he hardly ever left me, and so if I had one of my events, he'd be there. The device makes me feel comfortable and safe.

      Probably about a year and a half ago, I was at home all by myself. I thought it was a seizure, and so did my doctors later on. It was something else in my system. I just crashed and fell down. I had a hard time getting up. I called on the phone, and I hit the button on the necklace thing. I'm not sure if my friend did it, but I got an ambulance over. I think ADT made the call to get an ambulance over. Because then they picked me up, took me over to the ER, and I spent 3 nights in the hospital.

      I've always had good service from ADT. I've never had any problem with the medical alert. My daughter is a nurse and she suggested that I have it because I live alone. One time, I was getting out of the shower and I had it on. I have the necklace. Evidently, I pushed the button with the towel and I remember somebody came on and asked if everything was okay. I said yes, that it was.

      I did have to call in the ADT when I fell and broke my arm. Last January, I had gotten dressed and was going to the dining room, and all of a sudden, I was on the floor. My left elbow was broken in three places. When the paramedics came, they were just wonderful. I've lived in Norwood all my life, so I knew a lot of the paramedics. It took me quite some time. I had to crawl because my life alert was on my table about 6 feet away from where I fell. So, I crawled to that and called the alert and they were there in no time.

      I had the bracelet at one time, and I thought of trying the necklace. And if I wear the necklace all the time and I sit at my table, playing cards one time and the voice comes on. It hit the table as I leaned over to play cards. I like the bracelet, but I have the necklace constantly with me, right by my chair. Whenever I get up to go to the bathroom or go out shopping with my daughters, I always take my walker with me and I always have it on.

      My mother was falling a lot and she was living by herself at the time. She wears the ADT medical alert rom the time she gets up till the time she goes to bed, which is from 6:00 AM to about 7:00 PM, 8:00 PM. She takes it off to go to bed. It doesn’t bother her. We test it once a week. I call them and they do the test with me. We drop it on the floor and they tell me that it’s activated and is calling 911. It’s very good.

      I had a bad fall and my son and my daughter suggested the ADT medical alert. My son got it for me. I've had it ever since. The first morning, I had it on, I was having my breakfast, and I leaned against the camera and it went off. Right away, I had a call soI was very impressed with the service. It makes me feel safer. It gives me a feeling of safety that there is something I could do, that I have access. I don't always wear it in the house, but it's nearby. I had a call once from a young lady, who told me I needed to charge the battery and the device. I'd left it laying off the charge.

      ADT Medical Alert was part of the Medicaid plan that my husband had. That Medicaid plan has since changed what he had available to him, but we decided to just go ahead and continue with it because we thought it was a good idea to have in the home. Now, we actually manage the payment for it every month.

      He really only wears it when I have to step away from the home briefly, when he may be here by himself for a little bit. But we haven't really had to activate it or call anyone, which is good for us. During the testing, we were here when the rep came to install it and it was good. The few times we've had to reach out, ADT has been really good and really helpful explaining certain things. I have nothing but good things to say about the interaction that we've had. It's been little but good.

      My ADT Medical Alert device is the second one I've had. I’d liked my first one much better. I have a lot of trouble doing the testing with my second one. The part of the device where it says “Press here” for the test doesn't work 9 times out of 10. I have to call it in. I do the testing process once a month. They say it's working. I called them, and they tested that way and they say it's working. When I try and test it on my own, it doesn't work. Now, I don't know whether my machine does work. If it’s been an emergency, I wouldn't be calling them. I would be pressing.

      Once, it accidentally went off. I had it up on a counter in my kitchen. Somebody put something down, and it accidentally hit it. They didn't realize that they hit the machine when they went to put the package down. I called ADT immediately and told them. They said, “Thank you,” and that they would cancel the call. I wear my device 24 hours a day. It's very light. I just don't like the black color because you can see it with everything. It'd be better if it was more of a flesh tone.

      I'm very satisfied with ADT Medical Alert. If I need them, I know that they are there. After having learned it, I don't even realize I have it on. I don't take it off unless I shower. I try to keep from accidentally leaning against the alarm. When I have the machine asking if everything is alright, I push the reset button. One time, I was sitting in my TV room and watching TV, when all of a sudden, two gentlemen were standing in my doorway. It frightened me that somebody came in when my house was locked. Apparently, I accidentally pushed my alert button and they came into my house thinking that I had fallen or that I had a problem. They had the code to my garage and the code to get into the house.
