My mother-in-law’s health has unfortunately deteriorated recently. It has gotten to the point where she may be in her room but need to call us to help her. If everything is quiet in the house, the good old fashioned bell works just great, but if she is watching television, she has to have it on so loud that the bell isn’t able to be heard.
I looked around to see if I could find some easy work around, and found a cheap wireless doorbell that fit our needs.
For about USD $20 she got a button that was very easy to push, and there were two receivers so we could put one in the living room and one upstairs so we could hear it wherever we are in the house. It worked great!
