NSW Ambulance Service and Central West Police District have put out a call for residents in Central and Western NSW to install the Emergency Plus App to assist in locating people who make calls to 000.
With tens of thousands of people roaming regional NSW this long weekend, they say it’s a great time to get it onto your phone.
The Emergency Plus app is a free, life-saving tool for Australians, developed by emergency services and industry partners, using a smartphone’s GPS to provide accurate location information to emergency call takers, allowing for faster response times.
