What To Do During an Emergency

In the unlikely event of an emergency, dial 911 immediately. Per 911.gov, an emergency is any situation that requires immediate assistance from the police, fire department, or ambulance. Examples include:

A fire
A crime, especially if in progress
A car crash, especially if someone is injured
A medical emergency, especially for symptoms that require immediate medical attention

Even if you are unsure whether the situation is a true emergency, call 911. Let the operator determine whether you need emergency assistance. When you call 911, be prepared to give the following information:

The location of the emergency, including the street address
The phone number you are calling from
The nature of the emergency
Details about the emergency, such as:
- A physical description of the person who may have committed a crime
- A description of any fire that may be burning
- A description of injuries or symptoms being experienced by a person having a medical emergency
