It only makes sense , wouldn’t you want the best help available STAT! Emergency’s do arise, You need help, You need life saving help.
While the caregiver is there or not a button could be pressed establishing a two way voice communication with EMT’s to help advise on the action to take.

Hip fractures in the elderly are common—for every 10 hip fractures, about nine occur in people over the age of 60. “Hip fractures double with every five-year increase in age [after age 50],” says Sandy B. Ganz, PT, DSc, GCS, the director of rehabilitation at Amsterdam Nursing Home in New York City. By 90 years of age, one in four women and one in eight men will have fractured a hip, according to a study done by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
Hip fractures in the elderly are critical ailments, with possible life-endangering complications. Surgeries to fix breaks are common and consistently effective, while healing can take an entire year.
