Address Sign Program
When you dial 9-1-1, will the people who respond to your call for help be able to find you? The employees of Northland Regional Ambulance District want to make certain you can answer "yes" to that question.
ADDRESS SIGN
In an emergency, having a visible address sign that is properly placed, properly placed, can mean the difference between life and death. One of the biggest problems rescue workers face when responding to a call is locating a house number. The problem is often compounded in rural areas because numbers are often non-sequential, and homes are hidden off the roadway.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE
NRAD has implemented a 9-1-1 Address Sign program in hopes of alleviating this problem. Participation will dramatically improve the odds of your home being easily and quickly located by rescue workers. Participation is easy and can be done by calling our office at 816-858-4450, or by clicking on the link below and filling out the request.
