If you purchased the Splash for a family member, or you are 

a caregiver, you should add the GreatCall Customer Service 

number (

1-800-463-5412

) to your personal contact list or cell 

phone. 
You should store this phone number because there may be 
some unique circumstances when you will need to contact 
GreatCall Customer Service. 
The 5Star Medical Alert Service can only be contacted 

through The Splash device.
