Need-to-Know Numbers
During an emergency, it's easy to become disoriented and upset, so you need to have all important phone numbers readily available ahead of time.
Consider printing out or programming some of the emergency numbers in your cell phone. In addition, make sure people who come to the house to watch your kids (babysitters or relatives, for example) familiarize themselves with the list.
If you choose to create your own phone list, make sure it includes these numbers:
- emergency medical services: In most places this is 911, but your community may have its own number — check your telephone book if you're unsure.
- family doctor and dentist
- fire and police department
- hospital emergency room
- neighbors and/or relatives
- parents' cell phone and work
- pharmacy
- poison control center: 1-800-222-1222. This toll-free number will put you in touch with the center in your area.
If you are calling 911 from your cell phone, the dispatcher may not have precise enough information to pinpoint your location so be prepared to give detailed information about where you are (for example, address, city, cross streets, major highway, and nearest exits).
If you have a home alarm, make sure you and others in the home know how to use it to activate local emergency services (ambulance, police, fire station)
