-
App ›A mental-health responder at a crisis call-out.
Two-way voice from the Duress App keeps the Operations Centre on the line while the worker walks to safety. Audio recorded for clinical handover and the incident report your funder will want.
-
Phoenix ›A disability-support worker between visits.
Phoenix in the pocket, Safety Timer set on the walk in. If they don't cancel, the alert routes automatically. No requirement to remember to check in if everything is fine, just a quiet check that everything is.
