New Hampshire 911 C.A.R.E.S. Program
The NH Department of Safety Emergency Services has created a
Citizen Assistance Registry for Emergency Services program.
This allows individuals to register medical conditions (ie. behavioral concern, Alzheimer’s or Dementia, Diabetic, Depression or PTSD, Speech Impairment or Non-Verbal and MANY other medical conditions) along with other important information that can impact the 911 call under their phone number. When we receive a phone call from a registered telephone number of a C.A.R.E.S. Individual, the medical condition(s), home address, and other information submitted by the account holder is displayed on the 911 telecommunicator’s computer screen and can be shared with first responders so they can have a better understanding of the emergency before they even arrive on scene.
This 911 C.A.R.E.S. database is a self-service program that can be accessed online by going to cares.desc.nh.gov. Paper forms can be requested through the Dept of Safety office in Laconia, NH (603-271-6911). Brochures on this program can be found at the Town Office or by clicking here.
