911 Address Advisory Form Information
The County’s Communications Department is now offering a “911 Address Advisory Form” that the public may fill out and send in to our office. This form can be used by citizens to report valuable information regarding medical or other issues that may be prevalent in their home.
If a 911 call is received from a home, the Computer Aided Dispatch system will alert the 911 Dispatcher to conditions that are relevant regarding your situation and send that information to responding emergency units.
The form can be used to report chronic illnesses, elderly persons living in the home, persons that are physically disabled or have limited mobility, infants on apnea monitors, Altzheimers patients/residents, etc.
By making this information readily available to the 911 Dispatcher, the family will only have to provide limited information if they have to call 911, most of the information will already be in the computer and can be passed on to Paramedics, fire personnel or law enforcement. The form will advise 911 Dispatchers of the patient’s location in the home, the medications that the patient is currently taking, etc.
To fill out a 911 Address Advisory Form, just click on the below link and submit the form to us today.
Our goal is to provide efficient, effective information to our Emergency Services personnel in an effort to save lives and assist the citizens and visitors of Beaufort County.
