Home visits to unknown addresses. Rural travel with no cell signal. Overnight shifts with one staff member on duty. CheckMate gives your team 24/7 live operators who answer every missed check-in and panic alert, a discreet panic button, and timed check-ins on the Safe Alone app.
Trusted by healthcare organizations across Canada
Home visits, overnight shifts, rural travel, and volatile patients — healthcare workers routinely enter high-risk situations with no colleague in sight.
A nurse walks into a patient's home alone — unfamiliar layout, potential for volatile family members, no colleague within earshot. Every visit is a new set of unknowns, and there's no time to assess the risk before you're already inside.
Workers set a check-in timer before entering. If they don't confirm safe after the visit, 24/7 operators are alerted automatically and escalate within minutes — no call from the worker needed.
Community health workers, mental health counsellors, and social workers regularly meet with agitated or unpredictable clients — often in private settings with no witnesses and no easy exit. De-escalation training helps, but it doesn't replace a way to call for help.
One discreet tap on a phone or SOS wearable sends a silent alert to 24/7 operators — no sound, no visible screen change, nothing that could escalate the situation. Operators notify your designated emergency contacts before the client even knows.
Travelling between remote communities on highways with dead zones, dirt roads, and no nearby services. A breakdown, accident, or medical emergency in these areas means no cell signal to call for help.
CheckMate's satellite device works where cell towers don't — sending check-ins and GPS location via satellite. Operators track the worker's position on rural routes and can pass exact coordinates to your designated emergency contacts.
Lab technicians running tests at 2 AM, pharmacists counting controlled substances alone, nurses completing charting after everyone else has left. Empty hallways and locked wings mean no one nearby if something goes wrong.
Workers check in at set intervals during after-hours shifts. Supervisors see every active worker on the dashboard, and if a check-in is missed, 24/7 operators escalate — no waiting until morning to find out.
A single staff member supervising overnight at a care home or group home. If they have a medical episode, a fall, or are injured by a resident — there's no one else awake to notice or respond.
The SOS wearable detects falls, impacts, and prolonged lack of movement, alerting the monitoring centre automatically, even if the worker is unconscious or unable to press a button.
From home care nurses to social workers in the field.

Yes. CheckMate's panic alert is completely silent. Workers can trigger it from the Safe Alone app with a single tap or from the SOS wearable — no sound, no visible screen change, nothing that could escalate the situation. The alert goes directly to our 24/7 monitoring centre, who notify your designated emergency contacts while the worker focuses on de-escalating.
CheckMate's satellite device connects via the Iridium satellite network, which covers 100% of the earth's surface. Workers can send check-ins, panic alerts, and GPS location from anywhere — even deep in rural or northern communities where there's zero cell signal. They can also check in by phone from a patient's landline.
Yes. CheckMate is designed to meet or exceed working alone legislation across all Canadian provinces and territories. Every check-in, alert, and escalation is automatically documented with timestamps, GPS data, and operator actions — creating a complete audit trail for compliance with OHS requirements and Bill C-45 due diligence obligations.
Yes. The CheckMate dashboard shows every active worker on a live map — who's checked in, who's overdue, and where they are. Supervisors can monitor home care teams, community health workers, and facility staff from one screen, with full incident history and compliance reporting built in.
Immediately. Our ULC 5-Diamond certified monitoring centre operates 24/7/365 with trained operators — not automated systems. When a panic alert is triggered or a check-in is missed, operators begin escalation right away: calling the worker, then notifying your designated emergency contacts, who can involve emergency services if needed.
