Being healthy and independent is a fundamental part of living a meaningful life.
But as we age, or if we experience mobility issues, chronic health conditions or severe allergies, our circumstances can sometimes leave us feeling down. We can feel restricted and unable to live the life we want to.
As technology progresses, our ability to manage and improve our health and well-being also grows.
Assistive Technology brings hope to many
Assistive technology can provide hope to individuals grappling with chronic health conditions, severe allergies, mental health challenges, mobility issues or the natural process of ageing.
Through innovative devices and solutions, these technologies can extend a helping hand, enhancing independence, comfort and quality of life. For those with chronic health conditions such as diabetes or heart disease, assistive technology such as wearable monitors and smart medical devices can empower them to proactively manage their health.
Assistive technology can be a trusted companion providing peace of mind. But it doesn't merely address physical limitations, it bridges the gap between ability and accessibility. It provides peace of mind and a sense of inclusion and participation in society.
SafeMate, a cutting-edge assistive technology, offers a solution that bridges the gap between emergencies and efficient medical care.
When it comes to providing emergency treatment, every second counts.
At the heart of SafeMate lies a simple yet profound concept: personalised QR codes designed to provide vital medical information in times of emergency.
With just a scan by a smart device such as a smartphone, first responders and paramedics gain instant access to chosen critical medical details that can make all the difference in the outcome of an emergency. Information including next of kin, allergies, medications and medical conditions is accessed instantly.
SafeMate has been proven to save paramedics up to 10 minutes in an emergency situation.
Seconds and minutes count in an emergency and can mean the difference between a full or partial recovery, and sometimes life or death. With SafeMate, patients can avoid unnecessary or costly hospitalisation.
Each personalised QR code is unique and linked to a secure profile that conveys chosen vital information about the patient’s health, medications, allergies and emergency contacts. The data stored, chosen by the patient, is instantly transmitted to first responders or paramedics (Queensland Ambulance Service only), who can tailor faster, more informed treatments for the patient.
In 2014, SafeMate developed and pioneered this Tap & Save™ technology to speed up and improve the quality of pre-hospital care from first responders for patients.
What sets SafeMate apart is not just its functionality, but its ability to instil a sense of security and independence.
By putting essential medical data at our fingertips, SafeMate empowers you to navigate daily life with confidence, knowing that help isn’t far away. Whether at home, at work, or on the go, the reassurance of having a personalised emergency response plan provides peace of mind like never before.
SafeMate seamlessly integrates into everyday life. Its sleek design and user-friendly interface make it easily accessible by a smart device such as a smartphone.
SafeMate empowers independence through technology
By harnessing the power of innovation, it paves the way for a future where independence is not just a hope, but a tangible reality for all.
As we continue to embrace the possibilities of assistive technology, let us not forget the profound impact it can have on our lives, enabling us to live more freely, confidently, and independently than ever before.
