Apple Watch- Fall Detection Without a Cellular Plan

Hello,


I would like to get an Apple Watch for the fall detection feature for my grandmother. She has an iPhone, but uses it only for Facetime. It does not have a cellular plan. She has Internet/Wifi.


Would fall detection work with the iPhone and her wifi (no cellular data plan)?


Thanks

Yes but the phone must be in bluetooth range of the watch in order to make the call to emergency services.
