When a First Responder is seriously injured or dies, families are often thrust into a world
of immediate operational demands, agency coordination, and unfamiliar benefit systems —
all while coping with shock and grief.
The Reality Families Face
Rapid agency notifications and documentation requirements
Line-of-Duty determinations and investigations
Multiple benefits, funds, and survivor processes with different timelines
Pressure to act quickly while emotionally overwhelmed
How Life Sentinel Helps
A secure place to store critical documents, contacts, and agency information
Guided checklists that help families understand what needs attention — and what can wait
Structured support concepts for Line-of-Duty Death (LODD) and serious injury scenarios
Built for Agency Reality
Life Sentinel is designed with an understanding of how police, fire, EMS, and other
First Responder agencies operate — including the unique pressures families face
in the first days and weeks after a critical incident.
First Responder–specific workflows are a phased focus area and will be developed
through pilot partnerships with agencies and survivor advocacy groups.
