RapidSOS and the PulsePoint Foundation Partner to Connect 911 Directly to the Nation's Registry of Life-Saving Emergency Resources

New Integration Gives 911 Telecommunicators Real-Time Access to Registered AEDs, Naloxone, Epinephrine, and Bleeding-Control Kits

The integration connects RapidSOS directly to the NEAR Registry's database of AEDs, naloxone (Narcan), epinephrine, and bleeding-control kits, giving 911 telecommunicators immediate access to public-safety vetted life-saving resources during an emergency. Telecommunicators can use this information to direct callers to the appropriate resources—without leaving their existing workflow.
