Homeland
Individual Locator System
HILS - 911 Plus
HILS is an online voluntary,
private, individual data file that becomes available to emergency
personnel in a time of personal or community crisis. It provides
critical information when it is needed, which can save lives.
Participants will complete
a survey with only the information that they wish to make available
on themselves and their family. The information will immediately
be deposited into their local area data file. Updates can
be made as information changes.
The information you provide
is strictly voluntary - you may provide as little or as much as
you like. We ask for information such as:
• Individual emergency
contacts
• Medications, allergies, disabilities, and specific medical
needs
• The type of home you live in and what it is made of
• The distance to the nearest fire hydrant
• The presence of explosives, flammables, or harmful chemicals
• The presence of pets, gaurd dogs or dangerous animals
• Primary and secondary entrances to the home
Information entered into
a HILS data file is kept safe and secured. Only authorized
emergency service providers may directly access your information.
Example -- A
“911” call comes in - the dispatcher checks to
see if a HILS file exists. As the dispatcher sends out the
emergency response team, vital HILS data is relayed:
“Jane Lane, a
75-year-old female, lives alone at 233 Sherman Street. She
has diabetes and a heart condition, and she takes Coumadin.
Her home is a three bedroom two story – enter through the
side door. Be aware of the presence of her pet German shepherd
– Heidi.”
By registering your information
with HILS, emergency personnel will have accurate vital information
at their fingertips. The more information you provide, the
better and faster emergency personnel will be able to help you.
This knowledge of circumstances can reduce medical errors and the
number of first respondent-related accidents.
