“Why not just use a cell phone instead of the SkyAngelGPS™?”
The expectation is in an emergency, you will have the cell phone fully charged and with you, be able to open it up and dial 911 AND be able to communicate your name, exact location and emergency. The advantage is you may already have a cell phone, however, it is a poor substitute for a medical alert system and provides a false sense of security.
There are 4 basic problems calling 911 from a cell phone:
1- They don’t know WHO you are: The caller ID from your cell phone does not identify who you are, only your phone number and possibly a general metropolitan area where your cell service originates from. They will not know your name, home address, medical condition or who to call in the event of an emergency.
2- They don’t know WHERE you are: 911 responders don’t immediately know where you are – the closest they know is the location of the cell service tower you used when placing your call. If you lose connection or drop your phone before you have given your location, they may not be able to find you.
3- All cell phones DO NOT send GPS coordinates. Your phone may have a GPS feature on it, but that information may not be sent to 911.
4- When an accident, emergency or medical situation occurs, finding the buttons and dialing an emergency number could be difficult under stressful situations. Having a 1-button operation solves this problem.
