What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This is a wireless panic button that transmits an emergency signal to the CentralAlert CA360 base unit or CA-RX receiver when pressed, alerting others in the home that help is needed. It's designed for someone who is deaf or hard of hearing and lives alone or with a caregiver — pressing the button triggers visual and/or vibrating alerts on the receiver rather than an audible alarm they might miss. This is an add-on accessory, not a standalone product: you must already own a compatible CentralAlert receiver (sold separately) for it to do anything. It's water-resistant and small enough to wear or carry, which makes it practical for bathroom or kitchen emergencies where falls are most likely.
