Telemergency-PRO.jpg Telemergency PRO connects to your telephone and automatically contacts 911 by pressing either a button on the unit, or a button on a pendant that can be worn around your neck.

The Telemergency Pro sends out a pre-recorded message to either 911 or one of five pre-saved phone numbers letting them know of your emergency. If no one answers at any of the numbers it will keep trying for 15 minutes.

“The Telemergency Pro sends out the emergency alert message again if a phone has been put down without hanging up. For instance, if your message goes out, and is picked up by a child who doesn’t understand the message, more than likely, the child will put down the phone to find an adult. This feature “listens in,” and if it senses no response, will automatically send the same emergency message again. At that point, if no one has responded, it will disconnect and start dialing the other numbers. It can also operate on PBX type telephone systems that require dialing a 1, 8 or 9 before dialing the number.”
