This article covers how the React Mobile Workplace Safety Platform using our Bluetooth/Sidekick Panic Buttons works and the key components to the Platform.
Our Bluetooth/Sidekick Panic Button workplace safety platform has three components which allow for a team member to immediately request assistance to their location in an emergency. The three components are: the Bluetooth Panic Button connected to a Smart Device, the Bluetooth Beacon, and the Client Portal and Responder Application.
The Bluetooth Panic Button (aka our Sidekick) connected to a Smart Device:
This option works great for properties that have company issued smart devices. In most cases they’re already utilizing a housekeeping optimization software or property management software and our mobile app runs in the background. The panic button pairs with the smart device via a Bluetooth connection.
The Bluetooth button has a 6-12 month battery life, and has to be replaced with a CR 2032 coin cell battery.
Minimum Smart Device Requirements: Apple iOS10 + / Android OS7 + for React Mobile Certified Devices, otherwise contact us to confirm compatibility.
The Bluetooth Beacon:
The beacons that are installed throughout the property by the React Mobile team are used to effectively capture the geolocation in the event of an emergency. They are Bluetooth and battery-operated, with a battery life of up to 5 years which can be easily replaced when the battery is nearing its end of life.
The Client Portal and Responder Application:
The Client Portal can be accessed from any browser, and the application is compatible with both Apple and Android devices. From the Portal, you will be able to monitor the health of your system and will receive real time communication and location updates when an alert is in progress.
The three key components effectively communicate when an alert is activated on site. The following stages occur to summon the response team to an incident:
Stage One - Panic Button Alert Activation
The React Mobile Sidekick panic button allows a team member to quickly trigger a silent alert in the event of an emergency. To activate the alert, the button needs to be pressed three times in rapid succession or be pressed and held for 3 seconds.
Stage Two - Location Information
Once the smart device has found the beacon in the room (i.e. room 201), it will then send that alert up to our cloud and begin sending alerts via text, email, and to our dispatch center. The Bluetooth beacons are named to provide geolocation information within the property when an alert is triggered.
Stage Three - Alert Notification
The smart device then summons immediate on-scene assistance from the internal response team by connecting to the system via a cellular network. Additionally, the smart device also sends the location information to the Client Portal, where help is directed to the alert location.
Stage Four - Emergency Response
Once the notification is received, the response team can communicate internally using either the Client Portal or Responder Application, as they address the alert and respond to the situation.
