MedicAlert Connect Protect service will help Peel Regional Police officers reunite lost, wandering, and vulnerable individuals with their families
“MedicAlert Connect Protect” provides emergency responders and police with quick 24/7 access to a subscriber’s medical profile. This service is ideal for vulnerable loved ones who may wander, such as those with Alzheimer’s or autism, and for those living with a medical condition that could require immediate and focused attention in an emergency.
Benefits of “MedicAlert Connect Protect”:
“I am pleased about the new partnership with MedicAlert. It will provide our employees with critical information about subscribers ensuring that appropriate resources are aligned to ensure their safety. Peel Regional Police is committed to service excellence and this initiative helps do just that.” said Chief Jennifer Evans.
“It’s critical that we’re able to find and recognize wandering or unidentified people as quickly and efficiently as possible, both to protect our subscribers and also to save police resources,” explains Robert Ridge, President of MedicAlert. “In an emergency situation, Peel Regional Police will have access to vital information that will save valuable time and unnecessary worry from family members and caregivers.”
