As Australia prepares the ground for a digital network branch out to support leading-edge security solutions, Essence SmartCare’s LTE-based personal emergency response systems will be deployed to replace generation 2G and 3G cellular services. The upgraded system will be implemented by Essence SmartCare’s strategic partner, HSC Technology Group, which was awarded the project for its proven ability to deploy next generation security technology solutions.
“VitalCALL is excited to be working with HSC and Essence SmartCare to provide next-generation assistive technology to the senior market and allow our customers to maintain and improve their safety and independence while providing peace of mind to families that VitalCALL is here for them, 24/7, as required,” said Joshua Simmons, Managing Director of Monitoring Solutions at VitalCALL/Chubb.
Building on Essence SmartCare’s market leadership for cellular-enabled personal emergency response systems, the PERS 4G provides activity monitoring, fall detection, and voice capabilities anywhere in the home, allowing service providers and users to enjoy the highest levels of dependability and accuracy.
