What Is an Emergency Phone?

[Camila]

I’ve been hearing about emergency phone options for kids, but I’m not exactly sure what features they include. Are these basic phones with calling only, or do they also support GPS tracking and SOS alerts? I’m looking for something reliable and easy to use. Any recommendations or advice would be appreciated.

An emergency phone is a device designed to quickly contact help during urgent situations. It may be a basic mobile phone with emergency calling features or a dedicated roadside or campus phone. Smartphones include Emergency SOS, which lets users call local emergency services and share their location instantly.

An emergency phone is a specially designed phone used to contact police, fire, or medical services quickly. It may be a public safety phone on highways, schools, or buildings, often with one-touch calling. Many mobile phones also include Emergency SOS features for fast help without unlocking the device.
