Agree on a place to meet outside the home so you can count noses and be sure everyone is safe. For further information, please feel free to contact our fire station. Proper address identification vital Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, Charlie Chan, Nero Wolf, Inspector Clouseau, Your Local Firefighter, and Police Officer all have something in common. All are charged with finding that which seems hidden, and all must do it many times as a matter of life or death. Solve the mystery with proper address identification.
Addresses are vital to emergency services.
A fire engine, ambulance, or police car can be delayed several minutes trying to locate a correct address. Such time delays can mean the difference between life and death. Your address should be written on every phone in your house so that in an emergency, anyone calling in knows the address. Rural homes present a larger problem. Emergency vehicles responding to a call for help in rural areas must find the proper driveway or lane for the address of the emergency.
