A Growing Library of Safety Resources

Building a reliable emergency response system doesn’t start with hardware. It starts with understanding the problem clearly.

That’s why we’ve built a dedicated Resources section: a growing library of guides, research, and practical materials designed to help leaders make informed decisions around safety and preparedness.
Inside, you’ll find:

  • Downloadable guides on emergency communication infrastructure
  • Educational content on real-world system limitations and design considerations
  • Materials to support planning, evaluation, and internal discussions
  • Ongoing updates as legislation, technology, and best practices evolve

These resources are designed for safety directors, IT leaders, and administrators who are responsible for building systems that work under real-world conditions.

Our goal is simple:

Provide clear, practical information that helps facilities move from uncertainty to confidence.

Whether you’re evaluating systems, preparing for new requirements, or refining your current approach, this is a place to start.

How We Started

In 2017, a young lifeguard at a YMCA of Charlotte branch suffered a seizure while opening the pool alone. She fell into the water and drowned before anyone knew she needed help.

We heard the full story later that year at a conference in Seattle. Our emergency communication platform, PunchAlert, was already deployed at that YMCA, but it couldn’t help. She couldn’t unlock a phone, open an app, or call for assistance.

That tragedy exposed the fundamental constraint: when people need help most, they often can’t use the tools we’ve given them. We spent two days in Seattle with aquatics directors and risk managers, determined to solve what software alone couldn’t. The answer wasn’t another app, it was infrastructure designed for the worst-case scenarios.

Punch Rescue was born from that commitment: wearable devices that work when nothing else can, connected to infrastructure that doesn’t rely on the person in crisis to operate it. From aquatics to K-12 schools and beyond, we’ve remained focused on one principle: protecting the people who matter most, especially when they can’t protect themselves.
