CodeRED - EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION SYSTEM
Seconds Count In An Emergency!
Nash County has instituted the CodeRED Emergency Notification System - an ultra high-speed telephone communication service for emergency notifications. This system allows us to telephone all or targeted areas of the County in case of an emergency situation that requires immediate action (such as a boil-water notice, missing child or evacuation notices).
The system is capable of dialing 50,000 phone numbers per hour. It then delivers
our recorded message to a live person or an answering machine, making three
attempts to connect to any number.
THIS SYSTEM WILL ONLY BE USED FOR EMERGENCY PURPOSES.
Examples of times when the CodeRED system could be utilized:
and other emergency incidents where rapid and accurate notification is essential for life safety. |
The purpose of CodeRED:
The purpose of the CodeRED system is to give citizens the opportunity to enter alternate telephone numbers as well as ensuring that their primary telephone number is in the system.
Our database includes 60 - 70% of all telephone numbers in Nash County. However, to help ensure communication, citizens should enter their primary contact number as well as any other numbers they would like to be joined to their address.
| Your information will remain completely private. No one from the public can view your telephone numbers and your primary telephone number cannot be changed by anyone. |
For additional information please call 252-459-1214.
