“LifeFone provides peace of mind and personal security with the push of a button, both at home and on-the-go for pennies a day. Our location tracking is often more accurate than 911. You don’t need to wear or carry an extra device to get help. You can protect yourself, your family and your employees anywhere in the U.S., anytime, using your smartphone,” said LifeFone President Ron Maggio. We like to say that LifeFone’s service is not only affordable, it’s priceless!

“Most of us understand how important it is to protect our property. Protecting ourselves and our loved ones is even more important, so having a way to reach a professional central station operator whenever you feel it necessary truly provides peace of mind,” said Barry Schweiger, co-founder of SmartTek Systems. “This technology goes way beyond a simple call to 911 for three reasons:

1. You don’t have to speak to get help when you press your button.
2. Your call center immediately accesses the profile you’ve provided when you press your panic button for help. They know who you are and what vital medical and person information they need to relay to first responders.
3. The ability to locate you is often more precise than 911.
