House of Hope Deploys New Safety Wearable Technology

AlertGPS and House of Hope in Ft. Lauderdale have teamed up together to implement new groundbreaking innovative safety technology platform to increase the effectiveness of their outpatient treatment programs.

Scottsdale, AZ, February 14, 2019 --(PR.com)-- House of Hope, a provider of residential and outpatient treatment for people who suffer with substance abuse and mental illness, has teamed up with AlertGPS, the nation’s most respected provider of mobile safety solutions, to increase the effectiveness of their outpatient treatment programs.

House of Hope is using the AlertGPS safety platform to give their clients the freedom of an outpatient setting while also staying aware of their location using the award winning AlertGPS safety wearable with GPS technology.

AlertGPS’s cloud-based portal and wearable devices provide accurate location monitoring and reliable 2-way cellular communication, giving the House of Hope and their clients a solution that meets their needs.

With a press of a single button, the device initiates a voice call to the House of Hope, and location data is transmitted to ensure that the caseworker can keep tabs on their patient’s location, and can communicate if transportation or other services are needed. AlertGPS customized their safety platform to meet the specific needs of House of Hope clients who are beginning to re-enter the community.

“The safety platform that AlertGPS is providing for our treatment program is already proving remarkably effective,” said Sue Glasscock, CEO of House of Hope. “This is a great partnership that clearly demonstrates how business and technology can provide critical help to people struggling with addiction. We are delighted by the early results and thankful to AlertGPS for introducing their innovative approach to the Broward recovery community.”

“House of Hope is bringing purpose-built safety and location technology to the treatment of vulnerable patients who are hoping to restore their lives and rejoin their communities,” said Carol Colombo, CEO of AlertGPS. “Their phenomenal treatment program values innovation and quality in delivering services to their clients. AlertGPS is proud to provide technological support to House of Hope’s professionals, who deserve a solution that’s targeted to their specific needs.”
