My Mother who died in 2017 aged 92 had one. On neither occasion when she fell and broke her femur was it to hand. She was found either by her cleaner or my sister. But that might just have been bad luck; grandchildren hugging her set it off more than once.
Key safes are good provided all those likely to be involved know the code. Mum had one and as she has her marbles until the end it wasn't an issue. Mrs B's mother, who had Alzheimers, was locking herself out of her flat on her regular basis. She'd go downstairs to use the communal loo rather than the one in her own flat. Obvs she couldn't remember the code and we'd get a call to say was locked out (but laid back about it).
Lost time of how often I biked up there and sorted her.
