Special Tips For Seniors

The following is a list of special tips that can help save the lives of our senior citizens:

• Invest in a touch-tone phone with large, easy-to-read numbers.
• Put a 9-1-1 reminder near the phone.
  Dialing "0" will not always connect you with an operator nearby. It may connect you with an operator many hundreds of miles away.
• Always dial 9-1-1 for local police, fire or medical emergency assistance.
• The 9-1-1 system allows the dispatcher to "know" where you are calling from even if you cannot speak - for instance, if you are experiencing a stroke or if there is an intruder in your home. Just dial 9-1-1 and leave the phone off the hook. Do not hang up.
• Keep your medical history taped to the refrigerator in an envelope clearly marked with your doctor's phone number(s).
