Y'all check out kitestring.io if you aren’t already familiar. It basically sends you a text message at a time you set and if you don’t respond or extend your check in within x minutes, it will send out a message to your emergency contact(s) that you may not be okay.
I plan to keep a sheet of emergency details regarding my date/his information and where I will be on a print out at home and my message will just inform my contact where to find the info. This way I don’t have to tell anyone my business in advance 😅. But for real, this is absolutely genius.
Reblog to save a life. Stay safe, ladies! (And fellas)
This has so many applications:
1. Someone who has a health condition, and might have an emergency away from help;
2. Anyone traveling alone, because life happens;
3. Nights out;
4. People who work in remote locations. We had a setup like this when I worked for a wind farm company and we sent surveyors into the field;
5. Folks who live alone and don’t have good security at their home;
6. Independent elderly people who might have a fall or the like.TL;dr, this seems like a fantastic idea that’s potentially useful to most humans.
