About AlarmNet SOS

“Although there are Apps that allow you to alert pre-selected loved-ones in an
emergency, they only serve to tell people that you are in trouble. Alarmnet SOS uses the
geo-data on your phone, it works quickly by sending signals to the closest private
security response vehicle in your vicinity. This means that right now Alarmnet SOS can
be used anytime, from anywhere. Where you may have robust home and office security
systems, this App covers you when you are commuting, traveling, jogging or taking a
holiday out of your province.
Alarmnet SOS uses the latest geo-tagging technology, through TomTom and the
Alarmnet SOS network of Private Security and Ambulance service providers are
registered and highly trained.
At a small monthly premium, per person, Alarmnet SOS provides security and medical
responsecover, wherever you are, when you need it most.
According to Statistic-SA, right now crime conditions in South Africa have begun a slow
decline since its initial spike in the late 90’s. However, our crime statistics are still high,
by worldwide standards, and the rate of decline exhibits a mere 1.4% per year. In
reality, this means that although the physical number of criminal incidents have
diminished marginally, overall criminal activity is still significantly high.
The concentration of serious crime in South Africa remainshigh in densely populated
cities, focused more intensely in urban, and suburban areas. Although Public Services, in
the form of the South African Police Service, and Public Healthcare Emergency Response
exists, resources are limited. “High spike” times of the day and week (for example,
Friday nights) result in overburdened public services that are often overwhelmed,
slowing response time.
Right now AlarmNet SOS provides a “safety-net” for users by supplementing these
services with fast acting private service-providers. Although private home-security has
become a standard feature for many middle-class South African families, Alarmnet SOS
seeks to expand that level of security to external, public environments.
The benefits include peace of mind when you, or your loved-ones travel, a lighter load
on public services and faster, more effective mitigation of overall criminal activity in
cities.
There is a term used by paramedics and doctors…”the golden hour”. It refers to the first
hour after a physically traumatic, or possibly fatal injury. The Golden Hour is the time in
which the most effective life-saving interventions can be applied. Depending on the
severity of the injury, the chances of survival diminish with every minute that passes,
becoming more and more unlikely as time passes.

Immediate medical response is absolutely vital in the event of a serious injury, as the
timing very often means the difference between life and death. The AlarmNet SOS App
automatically sends private medical response assistance, and your exact location, the
moment you press that button.
