What happened?

Words of wisdom

Take an emergency device and a good first aid bag no matter how small the adventure is. 

I learned to always make judgement of the terrain on my own and also learned some practical tips by watching the trained people around me in action to help me in the situation. I would advise to keep up-skilling yourself and know basic first aid as it goes a long way to keep the injured person comfortable and alive while you wait for professional help. At the end it matters to keep everyone in the team safe even after the incident.

Thank you note

Thank you so much for the device as its accuracy helped the rescue team to get to us just in time and I was able to get medical attention quickly. Thank you for this amazing device as the adventures people do out there can count on this device if ever needed in case of emergency, which is a very big thing.
