What happens after I dial 9-1-1? |
|
9-1-1 What is the address of the emergency? | |
These are the first words you will hear when your call is answered. | |
Some things to remember: | |
Be Calm & Speak ClearlyWhen asked, give the call-taker a clear description of the emergency. |
|
AddressKnow your home/business address including the street/road name/number and township or borough. Tell the call-taker where the help is needed and where you are (if at a different location). If you don't know the address, don't be afraid to tell the call-taker that you are not sure. |
|
Stay On the TelephoneDon't hang up unless told to! This way the call-taker can ask questions. |
|
Stay by the TelephoneTry to stay by the telephone in case the call-taker must call you back. |
