What does it really mean to feel safe — at any age?
In Episode 8 of the MedicAlert Matters Podcast, host Peter Lawrence sits down with MedicAlert Foundation Canada's President & CEO, Leslie McGill, and Chief Technology Officer, Clint Kimchand, for an honest conversation about NAVIVA — MedicAlert's bold step into the GPS safety space.
This episode goes beyond the product. Leslie and Clint walk us through the vision behind NAVIVA, its key capabilities, and how it's designed to support not just individuals, but the caregivers and families who walk alongside them. They also tackle the questions and feedback coming in from the community ahead of launch — because education, awareness, and confidence matter just as much as the technology itself.
And then there's the bigger conversation: the one about perception. The idea that wearing a safety device means you're old. MedicAlert is here to challenge that — because this isn't about age. It's about independence. It's about filling real gaps in our healthcare system. It's about being safe on your own terms.
