How Guardian Plus Works
Alarms can be raised by simply pressing the SOS button which connects to our 24/7 based Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). Our ARC controllers will be able to view the device’s GPS location and the user’s pre-registered emergency information, including escalation procedures and contacts.
Controllers will listen-in and if it’s safe to do so, talk to the user. Utilising all the information available our Controllers will manage the incident; contacting the emergency services and/or the organisation’s nominated responders.
The Guardian Plus features a voice memo button, allowing the user to leave a pre-alert message with details of where they going and who they are meeting - our Controllers are able to listen to the message should an alarm be raised.
When enabled, the fall alarm feature will automatically raise an alarm to our ARC if the user slips, trips, or is knocked unconscious. This optional feature can be permanently enabled or switched on when required.
Direct Safety’s web management portal allows the account administrator access to a suite of usage reports and GPS positions via online mapping software. These reports can be scheduled to run at regular intervals or generated manually whenever needed.
The flexible design of Guardian Plus allows it to be discreetly worn in a variety of ways; as a pendant, attached to a belt or keyring.
