Hi Listerv,

I just posted an article on alerting systems and call chimes in the home for people with very limited movement or those at risk for falls.  The article includes links to where you can find fall or switch adapted life alert systems as well as a video demonstrating the use of slight movements of different parts of the body to activate a home call chime.  Call chimes are such and important element of communication between a person and their caregiver that thought I would bring this article to our listerv's attention.
