What Members Have to Say About SAIL

"The handyman you referred to us shaved off the bottom of two French doors so they would open easily over a new rug, repaired a two way light switch, and created a beautiful handrail for our stairway. He was good about keeping appointments, always calling ahead of time. His charges were very reasonable. What a joy to find him. Thanks to you and SAIL." Marge E.

"Access to pre-screened, affordable vendors for home repairs and other services is alone worth the monthly fee." Betty S.

"We are so pleased with your services. A vendor we used recently did an exemplary job. He actually feels like part of the family!" Bob H.

"SAIL is my security blanket. My kids live out of town and it's so comforting for them and me to know SAIL is here for me. The daily check-in is especially important to me since I live alone." Faith M.

"Alan (SAIL's personal health coach/pharmacist) saved my life! Thanks to him I found out my potassium level had dropped to a dangerous level and was able to get needed medical attention." Donna S.

SAIL S.O.S. - A Smart Choice!

Last month's news story in the WSJ about the local elderly brother and sister who were injured at home and unable to summons help for two days will hopefully generate awareness of the importance of personal emergency response systems like SAIL S.O.S. Fortunately, their alert and caring newspaper carrier noticed the newspapers piling up and and alerted police. However, with a personal emergency response system, two or three days of agony could have been prevented. With a simple push of a button, they could have immediately alerted a responder or the EMS to assist them! As a member of SAIL, you can receive this valuable service for only $20 per month! Most other products like SAIL S.O.S. range from $35-$48 per month-SAIL S.O.S. is a real bargain!
