Remote communication technology, such as GPS tracking devices, have many uses for both personal and business applications. A GPS tracking device can be pre-recorded with a message and delivered to a recipient. This has an important medical use for emergency medical notification and assistance.
If you find yourself in a medical emergency, the remote communication technology of a GPS tracking system can notify medical personnel of your exact location so they can deliver life-saving medical assistance to you. If you are in North America, the GPS tracking system will respond to the 9-1-1 emergency number; whereas, in Europe, communications are routed to the Europe emergency number of 1-1-2.
The GPS tracking system will continue to send out an emergency notification every five minutes, based upon your location, until cancelled. This allows emergency responders within your local area; such as police, fire department, and ambulance services, to be notified. Your emergency contact person will also receive a notification of your medical emergency.
If you have elderly relatives, think of the piece of mind a GPS tracking device could give you. You know that if your loved one should encounter an emergency medical situation, help will only be a few minutes away. It could be the one thing that saves someone’s life in an emergency situation.
