AvantGuard would like to thank two of our outstanding operators for helping prevent an attempted burglary of a home.  Kristen Purchase, a Central Station Operator in our Ogden Utah central station, and Kathleen Dawson, an operator in our Tacoma Washington central station both handled a burglar alarm from a residence in Tacoma Washinton. Their quick response to the alarm resulted in the attempted break in being foiled! Great job!

AvantGuard would like to thank Central Station Operators Gavin Butterfield and Amy Swift who both recently responded to medical alarm signals which saved the customers lives. Amy coordinated a response to a patient who was having a stroke in Massachusetts, and Gavin coordinated a response to an actual medical alarm in Arizona. Both customers lives were saved in large part due to their response! Great Job!
