The Most Important Emergency Numbers to Print Out
This printable template includes the most important emergency numbers as well as space for your personal emergency contacts. Simply print it out and hang it in a clearly visible spot—for example, on the refrigerator or the family bulletin board. That way, all family members, especially children, can quickly find the right contacts in an emergency.
The nora app, developed by the German states, enables a “silent” emergency call. Using this free app, you can directly contact the dispatch centers for the police, fire department, and emergency medical services in dangerous situations and immediately share your location. You can convey the most important information using icons and short text messages without having to speak. Visit nora-notruf.de for detailed information and a video about the app.
