New Emergency System Being Promoted

A free service to enhance communication and response, called Smart 911, is being promoted by the Sebastian County Sheriff's Office.  Representatives from their office have been going to local cities in the county telling residents about the service.

A news release from the Sheriff's Office stated "Information contained in the profile could include medical information, address details or photos of you or your family."  This will be able to be viewed by emergency operators when 911 calls are made from phone numbers connected to the account.  Residents may register for free at smart911.com.  An app called ICE also is available for smart phones.
