Empowering people with limited ability
KISA was created with input from organisations like Vision Australia, Guide Dogs Australia, and Dementia Australia. The design's purpose was to help individuals with various limitations, illnesses, or injuries reach out or be reached in case of an emergency. For many of our customers, the use of ordinary communication devices available on the market is simply not practical.
At KISA, our utmost priority is to empower you and your loved ones with greater independence and peace of mind. We are deeply committed to your well-being and happiness. This commitment drives us to constantly seek better ways to deliver our services with excellence and compassion, ensuring that you feel supported and cared for every step of the way.
With input from specialists in the field, KISA has developed a unique device that includes large mechanical buttons, an easy-to-read print, a dedicated emergency services button, and the ability to reach out for help by pressing a single mechanical button.
Having the ability to get reliable GPS tracking information 24/7 provides a sense of security, as you can always know that your loved one is safe.
With a wide range of twelve designs to choose from, KISA offers a device that can cater to most individual tastes and needs. We understand the challenges of reading or using ordinary devices with screens and confusing digital menus, which is why our device features large mechanical buttons and easy-to-read print. The large font size used on the device also facilitates easy navigation of the contact buttons, empowering users to confidently reach out to the right contact when needed.
Having the ability to display images as contacts gives our clients confidence in knowing who they're contacting without having to necessarily read the contacts on the buttons.
Remembering a face or an image is all it takes for the customer to reach out to the right contact, and this makes all the difference in times when it really matters.
