No, the Jitterbug Smart4 and Flip2 will not help prevent falls, but even medical alert systems with fall detection do not prevent falls. Lively Jitterbug phones also do not support fall detection since they are designed to be placed in your pocket or purse and not around the neck. That said, you can use your voice to contact the monitoring center from your Smart4 or Flip2 phone. If you’ve fallen and can’t reach your phone, you can say, “Hey Google, call Urgent Response” or “Alexa, call Urgent Response,” prompting your phone to contact the monitoring center.
