Emergency Response

Have you heard of the just released vSOS app from Nuvel? Developed for the iPhone (Android soon), vSOS has nothing to do with scare tactics but everything to do with peace of mind. The app provides 24-hour, 7 day a week emergency response/assistance in North America, South America, and Europe.

Now available for iPhone users at the iPhone App Store, users can feel confident that help for medical emergencies, personal safety and accidents is available with the push of a button. To send a distress alert with vSOS, simply press down on the red vSOS emergency alert icon for three seconds. This triggers the vSOS HIPPA-compliant server to automatically send a distress alert to the GEOS International Emergency Response Coordination Center (IERCC). The alert includes the user's location using GPS, personalized health information, and name, mobile phone number and address. vSOS also sends a text or email message to alert up to five contacts (physician, family, friends) listed in the user profile.
