A free app for Android, by PulsePoint Foundation.
PulsePoint connects police officers, firefighters, paramedics and other first responders with their communities to strengthen the Chain of Survival for cardiac arrest victims. We know that the 911 system isn't always reliable, and PulsePoint allows you to quickly and easily connect with nearby emergency responders when you need help.
You can choose to receive the most relevant notifications that are available in your area. Our alerts will alert you to anything that could have an impact on your safety, as well as the safety of your children, family, pets and neighbors. This can include breaking weather reports, traffic accidents, water-related incidents, severe weather warnings, community safety, and more. The alerts are sent to you through the PulsePoint app or by e-mail, depending on your preferences.
