EMERGENCY? Now What?
Throughout the nation, "9-1-1" has become the universal number for people to call when they need help from law enforcement, fire and medical personnel in emergency situations. Although the numbers dialed are always the same, the method, or protocol, for processing an emergency call is different from one PSAP (public safety answering point) or 9-1-1 call center to another.
