9-1-1 FACTS

  • More than 240 Million Calls per year are made to 9-1-1

  • Over 70% of 911 calls in the United States are placed from wireless phones, and the rate is increasing

  • An ‘Emergency’ is a life-threatening situation which include:

- Heart attack or stroke
- Child birth in progress
- Violent crime such as a knife fight or armed robbery in progress
- Serious car accident with injuries
- Any event involving large amounts of blood

OUR MISSION

  • TheRightPD mission is to help a caller determine if he/she should dial 9-1-1 or the police Non-Emergency number

  • Our goal is to turn your cell phone into a tool, helping you find the appropriate Non-Emergency number to TheRightPD wherever you are

  • If we can achieve this goal, then the next time you have an Emergency to report, you don’t have to worry about being placed on hold or getting a busy signal in a situation where Every Second Counts!
