How does MySentry protect visiting nurses?

The app provides a discreet panic button, fall detection, and a check-in system. If a nurse feels unsafe or has an accident, they can get help quickly, and our 24/7 monitoring team can dispatch emergency services if needed.

Is the app complicated for our home health aides to use?

No, MySentry is designed for simplicity. Key features like the panic alarm are accessible with one tap. We focused on an intuitive design to ensure it's easy to use, even in a high-stress situation.

What are our responsibilities as the employer?

Your main role is to ensure your team has the app installed and understands the safety protocols. You will have access to a dashboard to monitor alerts and manage your team's safety settings.

Can this help with our agency's compliance and liability?

Yes. Implementing a lone worker safety solution like MySentry demonstrates a strong commitment to employee safety, which can be a key factor in meeting OSHA guidelines and reducing corporate liability.

How much does it cost for a home care agency?

Our pricing is based on the number of employees you need to protect. Please contact us to book a demo and receive a detailed quote tailored to your agency's specific needs.
