If you have looked into ordering the Betty White Safe Watch by Monsignor, you’ve discovered that there is a hefty ongoing monthly fee for the monitoring service. Without the monitoring service, the watch is pretty useless. Monsignor does not post prices on their website and requires a date of birth before they will give prices on the phone. The price I was quoted for a 70 year old, was $99.90 for the watch and a monthly fee of $42.50. The also offer a discount for a 2-year prepay which still makes it over $33 a month, and no refund is available if for some reason you don’t need to have the watch for the entire two years.

We found an alternative to the Safe Watch that could save you a lot of money over time. The Amber Alert, as it’s name implies, is marketed as a GPS device for children, and has a slightly different feature set than Safe Watch, but for certain situations, it might fit the bill as well, if not better than the Safe Watch. If you are looking for a device for a loved one with Alzheimer’s, then the Amber Alert has several advantages over the Safe Watch.
