PHILADELPHIA—Medical Guardian, a provider of personal emergency response systems (PERS) and health care engagement services, announced the launch of the newest product in its lineup of medical alert solutions—the MGMini Lite. Weighing less than an ounce, this device is designed to address the dynamic and evolving needs of aging adults and caregivers. It offers two-way communication with 24/7 U.S.-based emergency operators, powered by 4G LTE and a range of advanced features, including fall detection technology, step-counting capabilities, nationwide GPS location tracking and a water-resistant design.

"Our mission at Medical Guardian is to empower individuals, redefine the standards of aging and expand the reach of PERS to audiences that have been underserved by existing solutions," said Geoff Gross, CEO and founder of Medical Guardian. "This includes active seniors, individuals with chronic illnesses and those with disabilities. The launch of the MGMini Lite is a monumental step in that direction.

"It blends cutting-edge technology with user-friendly design, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of lifestyles," Gross said. "The device offers immediate, discreet and comfortable protection, fully addressing the needs of our members. Our entire team is thrilled about this new offering, as we believe it will open up new possibilities for our members and their families."

  • Step & activity tracking: Encourages active living by allowing users and caregivers to monitor daily steps and set fitness goals, contributing to overall health.
  • Fall detection technology (optional add-on): Advanced fall detection technology that intervenes when the wearer is unable to press the button, along with a built-in cancellation feature for false alarms.
  • Effortless charging: A magnetic cradle simplifies the charging process, ensuring the device is always ready for use.
