Rescue Alert is a family-owned company headquartered in South Jordan, Utah. With over thirty years of experience, they have been setting industry standards through innovation and development of medical alarms and monitoring services. Their mission is to provide peace of mind and independence to seniors and their loved ones. In 1981, Richard Bangerter and others developed their first product, an emergency communication system called SOSTEN. It was a “smart,” stand-alone system that didn’t require monitoring and used existing telephone service lines.
In this Rescue Alert review, we examine the MyTrex MXD, a current home medical alert system manufactured by Rescue Alert for seniors and featuring cellular and landline options. Notably, many medical alert services utilize this system. As such, Rescue Alert and MobileHelp are the prominent manufacturers of medical alert systems in the US. However, we favor the MobileHelp CBS in-home system over Rescue Alert's MyTrex system due to its superior audio quality and pricing.
