MobileHelp, a healthcare technology company, has introduced new SOLO system, a mobile, Personal Emergency Response System (M-PERS).

The SOLO system includes a wireless device, a portable charging cradle and choice of a waterproof neck pendant or wrist button which may be worn at all times and also include MobileHelp’s Caregiver Tools.

MobileHelp said that SOLO is redefining the caregiving and medical alarm industry by

operating on AT&T’s nationwide cellular network and enabled with GPS location technology.

SOLO provides the flexibility of a wireless device with the convenience and capability of a PERS system, MobileHelp said.

Unlike traditional medical alarm systems, SOLO does not require a phone line and a single press of the button immediately connects users directly to a 24-hour staffed emergency call center where an operator will have instant access to the user’s location, medical history and emergency contacts.

The online tracking tools enable caregivers to locate the user anytime online or through their smartphone.
