Liberty to Live Fully: How Veterans Benefit from Fast Emergency Response in the Golden Hour

For the men and women who have served our country, timely emergency care is more than a medical best practice—it’s a promise of continued dignity, independence, and protection. Veterans often live with chronic conditions, injuries sustained in service, or mobility challenges that put them at higher risk for medical emergencies. In these moments, the first 60 minutes—known as the Golden Hour—are critical.

At Honor Alert, we’re proud to support those who served by offering a lifeline when every second counts. Our advanced mobile Personal Emergency Response System (mPERS), the Liberty device, empowers veterans with fast access to help—no matter where they are.

The Golden Hour: A Life-Saving Window

The Golden Hour is a well-documented medical concept referring to the first hour following a traumatic event or serious medical emergency. Quick intervention during this period dramatically improves survival rates and reduces long-term complications, especially in cases of heart attack, stroke, or serious falls—common risks among older or disabled veterans.

Without fast response, these emergencies can escalate into life-altering events. But with timely help, veterans can receive:

• Faster stabilization and transport to care
• Shorter hospital stays
• Improved recovery outcomes
• Reduced overall healthcare costs

 Liberty: Mobile Protection for Veterans on the Go

Honor Alert’s Liberty is designed specifically for individuals who value both independence and safety. Veterans can carry Liberty with them wherever they go—at home, outside, or traveling—confident that help is never far away.

Key features of Liberty include:

• One-touch emergency activation connecting users to trained, compassionate operators in under 10 seconds
• Nationwide coverage via reliable cellular networks and GPS, no landline required
• Location tracking so first responders know exactly where to go
• Industry-leading battery life lasting up to 18 days on a single charge
• Fall detection and proactive wellness checks for added peace of mind

Liberty isn’t just a device—it’s a trusted companion that empowers veterans to live more freely, without fear of being alone in an emergency.

Technology That Supports the Entire Circle of Care

Liberty (with fall detection) works seamlessly with Honor Alert’s connected caregiver tools, enabling VA clinicians, care teams, and family members to stay informed and proactive. Through our integrated Caregiver app, authorized users can:

• Monitor activity levels
• Receive alerts for emergencies or falls
• Track device location in real-time
• Access historical health and engagement data

This makes it easier for healthcare providers and families to collaborate on preventive care, improve outcomes, and reduce unnecessary ER visits or hospital readmissions.

We’re proud to work with healthcare systems, the VA, and veteran organizations to ensure our technology is accessible, reliable, and responsive to those who’ve given so much. Whether you’re a VA clinician looking to extend care beyond the clinic walls or a family member seeking added security for your loved one, Liberty is a proven solution.
