IN CASE OF EMERGENCY -
HOW YOU CAN HELP
At a recent safety meeting, an employee shared a personal experience of his that included a significant learning for all those attending. His wife was having serious heart attack symptoms, so he called 9-1-1. He told the dispatcher to look for the emergency flashers on his truck. He backed his truck down the driveway and turned them on. The EMT's said that it saved them critical time in finding his house when they got in the neighborhood.
What a great idea to aid responders in locating those in crisis! Share this idea with friends and family. Hopefully, they will never have to use this time-saving suggestion, but it would be a nice piece of information to tuck away for emergency situations. Knowledge is definitely power!
