Keep informed of emergency activity
Whenever there is a swarm of firetrucks in our neighborhood, I check my Nextdoor app in case anyone has posted any info, and it was there that one kind neighbor pointed me to the PulsePoint Respond app, which informs you of real-time medical and fire emergencies near you. If you’re CPR-certified, you can also sign up to receive “CPR-needed” notifications if someone nearby is having a cardiac emergency. Unfortunately, it’s not available in all areas yet, but definitely worth checking out. — CD
