ADT Introduces New ‘Wearable’ Emergency Response System
The ADT Corp., Boca Raton, Fla., announced the expansion of its health product portfolio with the introduction of its wearable On-The-Go Emergency Response System.
ADT cited a statistic from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which show that one out of three adults over the age of 65 in North America fall each year, and many who fall and suffer moderate to severe injuries are unable to manually call for help. ADT’s new solution, which operates on a nationwide cellular network, boasts connectivity to a specially trained team of ADT Health employees, fall detection sensors, and GPS location capabilities — in a single and easy-to-use device, the company described.
