On-the-MOVE! Frequently Asked Questions
While this device does have a GPS feature, it has not been designed specifically for someone with dementia. GPS is a technology that is not 100% reliable, 100% of the time and therefore we don’t recommend that this device be used for that purpose. If the person with dementia is capable of pushing the button and charging the device daily, it could potentially be used as a help button, however it would vary by individuals.
No cell phone is required but you can connect this device to the Cargiver Mobile app!
When your call connects to the response centre, the operator is able to speak with you through the speaker and find out what’s happening and where you are. As a back-up, the device does have GPS, however due to the fact that GPS is not always accurate, we do not encourage you to rely on this feature on its own.
You talk to the operator through a speaker in the button. Just hold to your mouth and speak in the button and you will hear that operator speak back.
This button is water resistant and is ok to get wet in shower or bath.
Northwood Intouch has been offering personal alert services for more than 37 years and we stand behind all of the equipment that we offer. While this button is portable and easy to use, there may be reasons that someone would choose a different style of button. This device needs to be charged on a daily basis and is larger in size. If someone doesn’t leave the house alone or may not remember to charge it, they may be best suited with a traditional home-based system.
Manufacturer specs say that it can last up to 36 hours, depending on use and the cell reception. We recommend that the device be charged daily.
