In RescueMe Now you will find an About Me page. This page gives important information about you to your rescuer such as name, contact information, blood type, medical instructions etc.
Personalize this app at the Settings tab. In the group of App id and name enter your unique RescueMe id such as your email address or any user name you choose. This system wide identity name will be required when you build up or join a RescueMe group and want to receive direct alarm notifications from others you have given this id to.
Setup a group of Assistants to be able to identify and notify them. Type in their names and phone numbers with text (SMS) capabilities and their e-mail addresses. Type in RescueMe IDs if they have RescueMe installed on their iPhone or iPad devices. All the assistants with RescueMe id will receive your alarm message promptly. This message pops up and activates a map on their devices and presents your location.
With this app you can create an ad-hoc group of RescueMe Now users who can listen to alert messages. In this group you can also be an Assistant for other users. When you listen to someone else and you have two or more iPhone or iPads with RescueMe Now, all devices will get the the same alert message that was activated by your friend or family member.
By using the Directory of Emergency Services you can build a custom address book of important contacts with direct access to their phone numbers and web sites. It helps you call them promptly when you need it.
