Founders

Chris and Bill Kemp are the co-founders of Medics SOS.  They established their careers and cemented their knowledge of the alarm responder industry as owners of Kemp Controls, a family-founded alarm company headquartered in Connecticut.  At Kemp Controls, the Kemps take a hands-on attitude with the company from research and development of new products to ensuring the best care in customer service is maintained.

The company has come a long way from its origins in 1938. From being in the Security lock and repair service to fabricating alarm systems in the 1950’s and 60’s to electronic Security & Emergency monitoring from the 70’s to today, they have found ways to make improvements to the industry. 

Two years ago, Chris and Bill Kemp founded Medics SOS. They noticed that a truly effective and beneficial personal response unit that would have wide-ranging appeal was missing from the personal response market. The Kemps hired EMTs as call center responders to comfort and provide critical care to those in need in the crucial moments before an ambulance arrives. In doing so, the Kemps have added a new dimension to personal response systems, introducing products and services which will leads to a universal demand for Medics SOS--from the elderly, to anxious parents, or to those with pre-existing conditions which may cause complications in an emergency situation.
