9-1-1 Preparedness

The following recommendations are helpful in the event of an emergency:

• Keep your phone in a place that is readily accessible
• Do not program 9-1-1 into your phone as it may be dialed unintentionally
• Direct children/grandchildren in the home on how and when to use 9-1-1
• Post your address and phone number on the refrigerator and other visible places within your home for others who may need the information in the case of an emergency
• Make sure that your address is easily visible from the street
• Know how to use 9-1-1 with the types of phones that you own
