Abstract: An electronic assistance call device, system and method provide a transmitter portion and a receiver portion. The transmitter portion is wearable and activated by a first person. The receiver is wearable by a second person. Upon activation of the transmitter, a signal is sent from the transmitter directly to the receiver portion. The receiver portion, in turn, provides the second person with an alert via the receiver, which can be by a tactile vibration, a sound and a light, or any combination of such modalities. Each portion is self-contained and carries an electrical energy source, such as a battery, and electrical circuitry that extends the useful life of the energy source. The device portions can be used in a “sleep” mode and activated to a “use” mode. At all other times, the device portions would remain in the sleep mode, thereby preserving the electrical energy of the self-contained supply source.
