Getting Help: Know the Numbers
The best time to prepare for an emergency is before one happens. Make sure your family knows
emergency phone numbers and your kids know how to place a call for help. To place a call to 112 and talk to the operator, kids should know: -how to dial 112 -their full name -their full address -how to give a short description of the emergency -It is also helpful for your kids to know their phone number. The dispatcher will often ask this question in case the call is disconnected. Have your kids practice by speaking into a telephone.
