WHAT IS AN EMERGENCY?

An "Emergency" is an event that poses immediate, significant threat to life and/or property:
•        A heart attack or stroke is an emergency; a broken finger is not.
•        A teen threatening his parent is an emergency; a teen refusing to obey his parent is not.
•        A noise from your neighbor that sounds like a violent physical encounter is an emergency; a noisy party is not.

Do CALL 911 for the following (not an complete list)
•        Traffic accident with known or suspected injuries
•        Life-threatening medical situations
•        A fire in your stove, dryer, chimney, or any other part of your home
•        Fire or smoke from an identified location (not just "a lot of smoke in the air")
•        In-progress or just-occurred crimes
•        Domestic violence
•        Fights, using fists and/or weapons
•        Earthquake-related injuries or property damage that is life threatening

Do
NOT call 911 for the following (not a complete list)

•        Non-injury traffic accident
•        Directions to hospital or clinic; call the hospital or clinic
•        Unruly children
•        Noise disturbances, including parties or loud music
•        To request the batteries in your smoke detector be changed
•        To ask if we just had an earthquake or what time it is.
•        Injured and/or dead animals, call Animal Control (707) 565-7100
•        Illegal parking/abandoned vehicles

A NOTE ABOUT CELL PHONES
Cell-phone calls to 9-1-1 are routed through the CHP dispatch center in Vallejo, CA and have to be transferred back
to the County for dispatch, which creates a delay even if answered promptly. In addition, cell phone calls to 9-1-1
often are placed on hold for long periods or are not answered for several minutes. Therefore, it is a good idea to
store the Sonoma County Sherriff's dispatch number (707) 565-2121 in your cell phone and use that number when
using your cell phone to report emergencies in Sonoma County.

WHAT IS AN EMERGENCY NET?
