The Problem From 1,000 Miles Away

You live out of state. Your aging parent lives in Yuma, AZ. Every doctor's appointment or grocery trip fills you with invisible anxiety.

The Heat Risk

Waiting 15 minutes outside in 115°F Yuma weather is a medical emergency.

The Tech Gap

Teaching them to use Uber or Lyft over the phone is frustrating and unreliable.

The Inside-Home Limit

Traditional Life Alert buttons only work inside the living room. They won't get them to cardiology.

The Solution

RideAlert Changes Everything

The Ride Local One-Touch Button reframes safety from "I'm fragile" to "I am independent."

Your parent quickly clicks the button twice — a familiar, simple gesture that requests a local ride.

How It Works for You

Built for Yuma. Trusted by Families.

"Living in Chicago while my dad is in Yuma was terrifying during the summer. He refused to use a smartphone, but he keeps the RideAlert button on his keychain. I get a text when he goes to Onvida Health and a text when he gets home. It saved my sanity."

Frequently Asked Questions

Do they need a smartphone or Wi-Fi?

No. The physical button connects directly to our network. Your parent does not need a smartphone, data plan, or home internet.

What happens in an actual medical emergency?

Our local dispatch team is trained for senior care. If a driver or dispatcher notes a medical emergency, they immediately coordinate with local Yuma first responders.

How do the caregiver alerts work?

During setup, you link your mobile number to their button. Our system automatically texts you live status updates every time a ride starts and completes.
