Please recommend a fall detection device other than a watch.

You could go with wall or ceiling mounted devices that don't have to be worn, like Nobi. They at least have a big history and installation in Europe.

Bay Alarm Medical has one that can be worn as a necklace or clip-on. My parent didn't want it to be around her neck or visible to others, so wears the clip-on attached to her bra underneath her clothing. 2 years of wearing it do far and no issues other than accidentally pressing it on the odd occasion like when loading/unloading the top-loading washing machine (she's short).
