Emergency Phone Numbers

Emergency Telephone Numbers are to be used only for emergency situations

Emergency Operators have been trained in Emergency Medical Dispatch and Fire Priority Dispatch. They will ask a series of questions as well as tell you what to do until help arrives.

Police, Fire, Ambulance 911

Six Things to Tell the Operator When You Need Help:

1. Who you need -- Police, Fire or Ambulance
2. Where you need the help (your address)
3. What is happening now
4. How did it happen
5. When did it happen
6. Your name

Helpful Hints

Teach everyone in your family how to make emergency calls. If you accidentally call 911, stay on the line so the operator knows that help is not needed; otherwise, the operator will notify the Police to investigate.
