Callers will be linked to the appropriate emergency service provider - police, fire and ambulance services. A 911 EMERGENCY is when a person’s health, safety or property is threatened and that person needs the immediate assistance of the police, RCMP, fire or ambulance services to deal with that threat. Immediate POLICE assistance is needed when reporting a crime in progress or a life- threatening or violent situation. Immediate FIRE assistance is needed when reporting a fire at home or any other location. Immediate AMBULANCE assistance is needed when immediate medical attention or transport is needed for victims of serious accidents or illness such as heart attack. WHEN IN DOUBT, call 911 Non-emergency calls for assistance should be made directly to the service provider in your area. Services and locations are listed in this book under EMERGENCY SERVICES.
