Dealer Conference

I just returned from the annual dealer conference in Ohio and I feel excited and rejuvinated. It's always great to meet with other leaders in the medical alarm industry and visit with them about the positives and negatives of our always changing industry. I came away with great ideas on how to better serve our current clients and ways to offer our services to a broader range of users.
This year was especially beneficial due to the addition of the trade show. Home technology dealers from all over the country were brought in to show off the latest and greatest technologies. A few that impressed me were-
1. SimplyHome which is a comprehensive home monitoring system that along with basic personal emergency response it also can monitor doors, windows, oven/stoves, medicine cabinets as well as many other things. www.simply-home.com.
2. LogicMark which is pioneering the way for voice to voice pendant services. We currently offer this and have had good success with it.
3. The Care Watch or the LF500 which is a all in one two way voice watch or pendant that has GPS so a client can be located anywhere in the country. Alert Response will have this available hopefully within the next 1-3 months.

Overall it was a very informative trip and although I had to leave my new born and 22 month old boys with my wife for 3 days I think it was well worth it.
