As Moms, we try to make sure we’re prepared for any situation, but sometimes things happen – health emergencies, car accidents, etc. – that fall outside of our control. When confronted with an unsafe or uncertain situation, the ability to access round- the-clock help provides an extra feeling of comfort.
With a device the size of a cell phone, the 5Star Responder connects the user to an agent trained in CPR and other emergency protocols. 5Star assists in dispatching 9-1-1 services if necessary, or simply stays connected until the situation is resolved.
Simple to use and convenient to carry, Greatcall’s 5Star Responder utilizes GPS technology for location assistance and features a single-button operating system. Users fill out a personal profile that includes emergency contacts and medical conditions, providing the dispatcher with the ability to contact the necessary resources. Moms can even give the responder to a child for an extra sense of comfort, with the ability to track the responder through the greatcall website.
The 5Star Responder Device operates wherever wireless coverage is available.
Disclosure: Mom Central received a sample of the 5Star Responder to facilitate this review.
