The Tinley Park Police
Department and The 911 Command Center are proud to announce
the implementation of an exciting new program designed to
assist you and/or your loved ones in the event of an
emergency. On August 28, 2009, Senate Bill 2057 - Premise
Alert Program - was signed into law and passed in the
General Assembly with unanimous, bipartisan support. The
Illinois Premise Alert Program (PAP) allows individuals with
disabilities or special needs, their families, or
care-givers to register with Police, Fire, and/or Ambulance
Agencies. The information provided will supply these
emergency service agencies with potentially life-saving
information about their conditions if called upon to provide
emergency service..
In accordance with this
law, the Tinley Park Police Department and the 911
Command Center, would like to take this opportunity to
invite you to participate in this voluntary program designed
to aid you and/or your loved one in an emergency situation.
By completing the attached form, we will be able to “flag”
your residence with the particular special needs of you or
your family member which will enable the dispatcher to
quickly inform the Public Safety Personnel of the nature of
the problem.
Please take a moment to
fill out the attached form and either mail or e-mail it back
to the
Tinley Park 911
Command Center. Contact information is listed below.
