Apple Watch Fall detection notification

My elderly mother has an iWatch. Is it possible to be notified if she falls?

Fall detection on the Apple Watch will first call emergency services unless cancelled. After that call ends, the Watch will then send a message to the emergency contacts set up in the Watch notifying those contacts that the Watch detected a hard fall and called emergency services.
