New simple medical alarm

The idea is simple. If you need help, simply press one button and be

connected to a live Personal Assistant standing by just for your call

anytime or anywhere.

Tell the Personal Assistant what you need and they will stay on the

phone with you until your problem is solved. If you don’t know where you

are, your Personal Assistant may be able to pinpoint your location to

within just a few feet.

In response to the huge demand from independent seniors - and their

often distant family members - Clayton Communications, Inc. has

introduced the world’s first SafeGuardian One Button Medical Alarm Cell

Phone.

SafeGuardian One Button Medical Alarm Cell Phone is a small, lightweight

battery powered cell phone with a built-in GPS locator. The most

impressive feature is that it is designed to go wherever you do. Clip it

to your belt, drop in into a purse or move it between vehicles, it

provides one button protection and convenience even when you are miles

from home.

The device is activated with just one push of the single oversized red

“call” button on the front. Within seconds, a live “personal assistant &

emergency dispatcher” answers the call 24 hours a day. The personal

assistant can immediately dispatch local police, fire, paramedics or

roadside assistance and much more.

The cell phone is “GPS–enabled” allowing the assistance center

professionals to perform a “locate” in the event emergency assistance is

dispatched to help the caller, if the caller is lost or in need of

directions. When a clear view of the sky is available, the built-in GPS

locator is accurate to within 30 feet.

“If you need help and call “911” from your regular cell phone, the 911

operator does not know who you are, where you are or have access to any

information about you. Additionally, 911 service is reserved for true

emergencies only.” said C. s, President of Clayton

Communications, Inc., “The SafeGuardian Personal Assistant who answers

your call addresses you by name, has all your important information that

you have provided at their fingertips (names, phone numbers, medical

information, etc) and are waiting to provide whatever assistance you may

need.”

Designed for much more than just emergencies, the SafeGuardian One

Button Medical Alarm Cell Phone also provides a wide variety of safety

and convenience features. Callers can request to be connected to anyone

worldwide, store important information (names, telephone numbers,

medical information, etc) for quick contact, receive turn-by-turn

driving directions and even request location and directions to any local

business or facility including hospitals, doctors, dentists,

restaurants, gas stations, hotels, etc.

The device is small (5” x 2” x 1”), lightweight (6 ounces), and uses

commonly available lithium batteries (no charging required) that can

last for months. It retails for $199 and the monthly service plan is

just $34.95. The company offers free activation and free emergency

calls. Non-emergency and optional concierge calls are $1.25/minute.

“Independent, active seniors also are finding the phone is a great

companion when they are alone. They like the ease of use and the feeling

of safety and security they feel knowing they can get assistance anytime

and anywhere with the push of one button” continues Mr. s, “It

truly makes a great gift for any aging parent who would never buy or use

a regular cell phone.”

Thanks for the info, I could have used it last month. I woke up in the middle

of the night to go to the bathroom and my foot didn't work and I tripped over a

wire and fell on my shoulder and eye and couldn't move for a half hour or so. I

screamed thinking my neighbors would hear, but didn't. That would have come in

handy.
