Several methods are available to call for assistance.
The transmitter should be non- directional, easy to test for proper operation, and durable. The transmitter must be non-intrusive for the individual to perform their normal activities. The technology chosen should not be subject to nuisance alarms. Each technology has advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantages of whichever technology you choose should be openly discussed and procedures adopted to work within the system's capabilities.
