The system includes an input jack for connecting the processor to a communication network for allowing communication between the processor and an emergency response entity. A microphone and a speaker are in data communication with the processor. The processor includes programming for causing the processor to actuate the microphone and the speaker to allow audio communication between a user and the emergency response entity through the communication network upon activation of the single-motion user input device.
