In British Columbia, where a population of over 4.7 million and a growing segment of individuals aged 65+ reside, the assurance of our loved ones’ safety and well-being holds paramount importance. At DoorStep Canada, we’ve formed a strategic partnership with Numera to introduce the Mobile Medical Alert Solution—an innovative avenue that not only assures the security of our cherished family members but also grants them the freedom to relish life to the fullest. The Numera Libris, a pioneering creation, harnesses the power of the local cellular network, equipped with GPS functionality and fall protection features. This synergy empowers dispatchers and family members to intervene promptly during emergencies, ensuring that our loved ones are never alone.

By leveraging cellular communication provided by Rogers or AT&T, the Numera Libris extends unrestricted mobility, permitting your loved ones to traverse anywhere while being promptly assisted in emergencies. The GPS component further amplifies safety, providing crucial location information to Numera dispatchers when emergencies arise. In cases of power outages or cellular signal loss, regular time stamps map out location patterns, offering insight into the last-known whereabouts. Additionally, the Numera system is designed to instantly dispatch emergency responders in the event of a fall or incapacitation.
