Did you know?
When someone calls 911, their call is routed to a NH 911 Call Taker in
either Concord or Laconia, NH. The 911 Call Taker verifies your
information and will EMD (Emergency Medical Dispatch) while
electronically sending the information to the correct Dispatch
Agencies. The NH 911 Call Taker will conference with the Dispatcher
who then dispatches the call to the appropriate resource
(Fire/EMS/Police). If a call is coded as a lower acuity you may see
the ambulance respond/arrive without their lights on, please do not be
alarmed. For high acuity calls you may see the Ambulance and the
Members Responding in their own vehicles with Lights and Sirens on.

NH has a unique system - rhode island has a similar system - cant
think of any other states that are set up like this - not even
Delaware or Maryland
