About this app

The GoodSAM Responder App is a professional deployment system used by Emergency Services around the world.

GoodSAM provides a range of solutions connecting those with specific skill sets to those in need, for example:

- GoodSAM Cardiac – This system is used by ambulance services to alert those trained in resuscitation (e.g. off duty paramedics, nurses, doctors, police and fire staff) to those nearby who are likely to be in cardiac arrest. This system has saved many lives around the world.
- GoodSAM Volunteer Response – GoodSAM is a platform used by organisations such as the Royal Voluntary Service and British Red Cross.
- GoodSAM Pro – This is a professional dispatch system for community first responders and the emergency services.

The App utilises the latest in location technology and has many advanced features including a built in “radio” (Buzz) function so you can communicate with surrounding colleagues.

The GoodSAM platform has saved hundreds of lives and helped many thousands of people around the world. If you can help your community, please download the App and register under your parent organisation (or get your parent organisation on board if they are not on!).

Ratings and reviews

It doesn't work, the pages and notifications go round in a loop and the app can't find my location. It's not doing anything other than saying this app isn't working. I have a new phone with plenty of memory too. Following the reply regarding permissions, location is on and permissions are granted.

Love the concept of the app. Although I've never been alerted to an emergency, it's good to know if there is one nearby I'll be made aware of it. However, I've submitted several unknown defib locations using an older version of the app, but can't see how to do that using the newer version; has this function been removed?

Only seem to get alerts through when I have the tab switched to 'off duty' and I'm unavailable because I'm already at work etc. Turning it to 'on duty' when I am available seems to stop alerts coming through. Also drains phone battery like crazy whether on or off.
