Quatro SOS

“Although there are Apps that allow you to alert pre-selected loved-ones in an emergency,
they only serve to tell people that you are in trouble. Quatro SOS uses the geo-data on your
phone, it works quickly by sending signals to the closest private security response vehicle in
your vicinity. This means that right now Quatro SOS can be used anytime, from anywhere.
Where you may have robust home and office security systems, this App covers you when
you are commuting, traveling, jogging or taking a holiday out of your province.
Quatro SOS uses the latest geo-tagging technology, through TomTom and the Quatro SOS
network of Private Security and Ambulance service providers are registered and highly
trained.
At a small monthly premium, per person, Quatro SOS provides security and medical
responsecover, wherever you are, when you need it most.
According to Statistic-SA, right now crime conditions in South Africa have begun a slow
decline since its initial spike in the late 90’s. However, our crime statistics are still high, by
worldwide standards, and the rate of decline exhibits a mere 1.4% per year. In reality, this
means that although the physical number of criminal incidents have diminished marginally,
overall criminal activity is still significantly high.
The concentration of serious crime in South Africa remainshigh in densely populated cities,
focused more intensely in urban, and suburban areas. Although Public Services, in the form
of the South African Police Service, and Public Healthcare Emergency Response exists,
resources are limited. “High spike” times of the day and week (for example, Friday nights)
result in overburdened public services that are often overwhelmed, slowing response time.
Right now, Quatro SOS provides a “safety-net” for users by supplementing these services
with fast acting private service-providers. Although private home-security has become a
standard feature for many middle-class South African families, Quatro SOS seeks to expand
that level of security to external, public environments.
The benefits include peace of mind when you, or your loved-ones travel, a lighter load on
public services and faster, more effective mitigation of overall criminal activity in cities.
There is a term used by paramedics and doctors…”the golden hour”. It refers to the first
hour after a physically traumatic, or possibly fatal injury. The Golden Hour is the time in
which the most effective life-saving interventions can be applied. Depending on the severity
of the injury, the chances of survival diminish with every minute that passes, becoming
more and more unlikely as time passes.
Immediate medical response is absolutely vital in the event of a serious injury, as the timing
very often means the difference between life and death. The Quatro SOS App automatically
sends private medical response assistance, and your exact location, the moment you press
that button.
