The Secret Ingredient to a Safe Spring Break

SHARE

With this one tool, you can dispatch responders to your exact location anywhere in the US, making spring break safety a breeze

For many of us, it’s that time of year again—time to start gearing up for spring vacation!

If that’s you, you’ve probably already set your travel plans and made all the necessary reservations. All that’s left now is to pack and get ready to head out, right?

Well, if you don’t have an emergency plan in place, there’s still some work left to do. But luckily, you can get it all done in one fell swoop with the Rescu app: the secret to spring break safety.

Keep reading to find out how Rescu can get you emergency help anywhere in the US, and 20x faster than 911.

 

Help in 2 Taps, Wherever Spring Break Takes You

When you call 911, one of the first things they’ll ask for is your location. More specifically, the address where the emergency is taking place.

But if you’re a long way from home, you may not know exactly where you are, let alone how to describe it. If you’re caught unprepared at this part of the process, it won’t just cost you time. It’ll also add to the stress of the situation, especially if it’s serious.

Rescu solves this problem by skipping the emergency phone call entirely. With just two taps on your smartphone or Apple Watch, you can dispatch fire, police, or ambulance services to your current location anywhere in the US. 

Rescu’s GPS-based dispatch ensures responders know exactly where to find you, whether you’re out on the town or on a remote hiking trail. Vacation emergencies are a real buzzkill, but Rescu removes all the friction from the process, making spring break safety simple and smooth.

 

Shave Seconds, Even Minutes Off Response Times

No phone call means you get help first and, if you’re willing and able, you can answer questions later. 

Once you send an alert, the app delivers it to Rescu’s private monitoring center, which dispatches the nearest first response team to your location. All within a matter of seconds.

This step alone can save you precious time in an emergency, eliminating the trouble of relaying your location over the phone when you’re in a city or state you’ve never been to before. Instead, responders will receive your exact GPS coordinates, taking all the guesswork out of the equation for you and emergency personnel.

But beyond that, Rescu’s subscriber-dedicated service also removes the risk of delays that comes with the 9-1-1 system, potentially saving you minutes. 

Everything from cellular network outages to non-emergency calls to understaffed dispatch centers can lead to 911 delays of up to fifteen minutes or more, potentially costing emergency victims their lives.

With Rescu, these hold-ups aren’t even on the table. The only thing you need to worry about is staying safe until responders arrive. And if you want the comfort of a dispatcher on the other line, you can open a text chat or call a Rescu operator anytime.

 

Keep Everyone Updated Automatically

When you send a Rescu alert, there’s no need to worry about contacting your vacation companions or the folks back home. The app takes care of that for you.

As soon as you tap “Send Alert,” all your pre-registered emergency contacts will receive a text including the service you requested and a link to your current location in the Maps app. 

That way, those with you on vacation can lend a hand, and your friends and family at home can stay updated. All without you having to lift another finger.

Of course, if your situation allows, you can call and update as many loved ones as you like. But if it doesn’t, you can rest assured that everyone who needs to know about your emergency will be notified, because there’s no limit to the number of emergency contacts you can have with Rescu.

 

Peace of Mind for Parents

If your kids are embarking on an adventure this season, spring break safety is probably the first thing on your mind. 

The last thing you want is for your child’s call for help to be delayed or for them to be lost during an emergency, unable to explain where they are.

Unfortunately, calling 911 is often a gamble. But Rescu provides the fastest and most reliable way to get help in an emergency, guaranteed.

Knowing that your kid has access to the best in emergency response, that you’ll instantly receive notice if they send an alert, that responders will know exactly where they are…

Will ease the worries that come with the 911 system and bring you peace of mind.
