The new FallCall Pendant paired with FallCall App turns the mobile phone into an on-the-go emergency response station for older adults
TRUMBULL, CT, UNITED STATES, October 22, 2024 /EINPresswire / -- FallCall Solutions , a leading innovator in app-based medical alert technology for Apple Watch, iPhone and Android, announced today the release of FallCall Pendant – a device that creates a new category of medical alert pendants in the United States. Through its partnership with global safety-tech provider and pendant creator, Essence Smartcare , FallCall Pendant differentiates itself from other medical alert pendants by connecting directly to a user's mobile phone and allows for remote triggering of help to 24/7 emergency monitoring through the FallCall Detect or FallCall Lite apps.
“Approximately 40 percent of falls occur outside the home,” says Dr. Shea Gregg, a practicing trauma surgeon and President/Founder of FallCall Solutions.“Today, the older adult is more active and tech savvy than ever. With 92% of those over age 65 owning a smart phone, FallCall Pendant will be able to call for help through their nearby mobile phone wherever an individual may be. Through our partnership with Essence Smartcare, we aim to provide this new model of accessing emergency care to those who already own smartphones and are looking for world-class safety.”
Essence Group's healthcare division, Smartcare, worked in partnership with FallCall Solutions to bring the FallCall Pendant to the United States.
“This partnership is very much in-line with our mission to harness technology for the safety and wellbeing of all,” says Essence USA President Yaniv Amir.
“At Essence USA we are constantly challenging the paradigm of healthcare with respect to the use of technology. We are proud to be a part of FallCall's solutions and excited for this expansion,” says Josh Locke, Vice President, Essence USA.
Following a simple pairing process, FallCall Pendant acts like a remote control to its companion apps FallCall Detect and FallCall Lite. With its built-in, industry-recognized fall detection algorithm that will automatically trigger an emergency call when necessary or with a press of a button, FallCall Pendant will signal the FallCall app to send a help signal to both caregivers and a 24/7 concierge emergency monitoring center. The trained emergency medical dispatcher will reach out to the user and their preferred caregivers to confirm the emergency and will send help as indicated.
“FallCall Solutions was founded on the vision of making safety more accessible, reliable and cost effective than ever. FallCall Pendant is yet another way to support those looking for a safety solution while living an active lifestyle.”
