Today, we recognize the vital role of 311 services in connecting communities with non-emergency assistance and public resources. While 911 is for emergencies, 311 helps streamline city services, reduce unnecessary emergency calls, and support public safety efforts. ?? As EMS professionals, we know how important it is to keep 911 lines clear for life-threatening emergencies. Educating the public on when to call 311 vs. 911 helps ensure faster response times and better resource allocation. ? Not every city has a 311 system—yet! But more communities are adopting it to provide non-emergency assistance, freeing up 911 for true emergencies. ?? ? ?? Check if your city has 311! If not, educating the public on local non-emergency numbers can still make a huge impact. ?? Strong leadership means stronger communities. Join NEMSMA and continue making a difference in EMS! ?? www.NEMSMA.org
