Apply for the Premise Alert System
The Premise Alert System (PAS) provides families with a uniform method to alert emergency first responders, such as police officers, about special needs individuals. It also provides those responders with advance knowledge, allowing for quick and educated responses during crises, evacuations and disasters. Any individual who has a special need, a health challenge or disability such as Alzheimer’s disease, Autism, other mental health challenges, mental retardation or complex or rare medical conditions, is eligible for registration in the program. Families can give a form identifying an individual with special needs to police, fire departments and ambulance companies so they can properly identify and assist these individuals and their families in an emergency.   read more...
