One other thing I noted: Because the Apple Watch works in conjunction with the iPhone when dialing emergency contacts (unless, of course the watch is cellular), the watch would need to be “connected” - nearby - to the phone to work. Can anyone confirm?

@beanieone, I am including a link because those who have not considered this technology may be interested, but here is this part:
"If cellular and Wi-Fi coverage are not available, and your iPhone 14 or iPhone 14 Pro or later is near your Apple Watch, Fall Detection will use your iPhone to send the notification using Emergency SOS via satellite, where Emergency SOS via satellite is available."
Here's how it all works: https://www.forbes.com/health/medical-alert-systems/apple-watch-falldetection/#:~:text=Apple%20Watch%20Fall%20Detection%20uses,the%20watch%20is%20being%20worn.
