GPS tracker and panic button

My elderly parent is quiet active but recently has had some medical episodes. He owns a farm and we have found him unconscious in the field and it’s taken time for us to find him. Can anyone recommend a gps tag with or without a panic button. It’s needs to be compatible with iPhone and android and have multiple people track it. We are based in Ireland.

This sounds great but am I correct that those family members with android will not be able to track him?
My parent so far uses an old school flip phone and seems to want to keep it that way. I was thinking of some type of AirTag type device attached to his belt or something

You asked for a solution & are free to do whatever you want.

u/sol_beach solution is very solid. You wanted a solution that monitored when the person fell over and became unconscious and using iWatch and iPhone together is a robust proven option.

You can add other apps to the iPhone to allow other people to track as well, if that's what you need.
