When a domestic violence victim faces an emergency, he can directly press the portable SOS button and receive information through the 24-hour monitoring service center. Immediately after the distress message, the location information is notified to the police station and social bureau to send personnel to rescue and assist.

Return it after it is released, so as to avoid the situation where the victim is facing an emergency and no one can rescue him.
