Help Us Help You

When you need help, you want it to get there as quickly as possible. Whether it’s a police emergency, a medical emergency or a fire, you want emergency personnel to get there fast. Minutes can seem like hours as you wait for help. Help usually arrives within minutes but there can be some delays. One delay that happens a lot is emergency personnel not being able to find the correct house. Police, fire and medical personnel often rush to a call for help but when they arrive, the houses are not clearly marked with an address. Police often respond to 911 calls only to find several houses with no address or house numbers painted over or obscured by shrubbery.
