Business Challenges
The medical emergency is something that’s unstoppable and it is not in our hands; it just happens! Understanding this thing, the client has started selling the medical alert system.With the existing alert system, when customers register, some details are provided like the lockbox, whom to contact during emergency and pretty more, and they cannot be edited by them later. Also, informing the users about any emergency was a difficult job to get done.
So the client wanted to complement the existing medical alert service with a mobile application, which enable users to have access to all the information they have provided at first and can manage it with a great ease.
Solution
The intuitive mobile application was developed for the medical alert system users that allow users to easily manage the information they have provided, immediately transfer the users’ medical information to emergency personnel and send the emergency alerts to the customers.

Using best logic and algorithms, the team enabled the automated rearrangement of the contacts’ orders, when any new contact is added, or existing contact is edited or deleted.
