International SOS, the world’s leading medical and security services company, announced the release of their new mobile application for members in China. The mobile app quickly connects travelers and international assignees to the extensive global response capabilities of International SOS, including a one-click dial for help from the nearest International SOS Alarm Center, instant access to the latest location-specific travel alerts, and real-time health and security advice.
The Membership App was developed to help organizations protect their globally mobile workforces and fulfill their duty of care - a company's obligation to protect its employees from risks. Safeguarding employees who travel abroad on behalf of their employer is an increasingly complex task. Even in low-risk destinations, business travelers can be affected by medical conditions, accidents, natural disasters, or political unrest. This innovative mobile app enables companies to protect their travelers and assignees from such threats by extending their travel risk management capabilities directly into the hands of their employees.
“The new App is a great tool for International SOS members. Instant, round the clock medical or security advice and support is now more accessible than ever and just a click away”, said John Williams, International SOS China’s Managing Director. “The App allows our members to stay informed and increases their level of comfort and safety, whether they are traveling or on assignment in Asia, Europe or in the wilds of Africa”.
The International SOS Mobile App is a robust mobile application that integrates with the company’s proprietary security and medical information systems, as well as its global alarm center network. The app is supported on all leading smartphones, including iPhone, BlackBerry, and Android.
“I used my International SOS Blackberry App to call the alarm centre and within 2 hours I was in the Takoradi clinic being seen to and was given antibiotics, the doctor even called me later on to check on me. I wanted you to know that it was dealt with brilliantly and very fast” said one Membership App user after falling ill while traveling in Ghana.
