Title: Emergency 112
Post by Dusty on Feb 28^th, 2016 at 2:34pm

The local mag from Jesus has a little note about downloading the app My112. This apparently links with call centre and the emergency services can automatically locate geographic location of the caller. Never used it (thankfully) but anything to help in a time of emergency.

You can if you have it use your verisure alarm call centre from your in house control centre.(SOS button) They saved a friend of ours life as they were able geo lock their address to the ambulance service as they lived off the beaten track. You also have the advantage of speaking to the operator in your own language to explain medical problems in order the ambulance can dispatch the expertise required. 8-)

You have to have a newer phone,
can't do it on older type, unfortunately.
