The City of Boulder City Fire Department recently announced the launch of a new service that encourages residents and businesses to create a profile to give first responders more information about the household or business in case of an emergency. The program is called Community Connect and it is voluntary.
Residents can supply information about their property, the people that live there (ages, medical conditions, etc), pets, etc for Fire Department personnel in the event that there’s a fire or medical emergency at the home. For businesses, the data that can be provided is a little different. Businesses are asked for things like the business emergency plan, the employees who are regularly onsite, details about the property itself and contact info for the business.
Providing this information, before there is an incident, can save time and potentially lives as well. The data is secure and will only be used during emergency situations. The information supplied is password protected with bank level encryption and security. Those who choose to use this new resource are encouraged to supply whatever information they are comfortable sharing. Users can always add or delete things as situations change at home or the business they own.
