PulsePoint Respond is an app designed to connect with 911 services, providing immediate alerts about emergencies occurring in your community. This app also has the capability to seek assistance from individuals trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) when needed nearby.
If you possess CPR training and are willing to aid in an emergency, PulsePoint Respond will notify you if someone in close proximity is experiencing a cardiac emergency and requires CPR.
In addition to receiving notifications regarding nearby CPR requirements, you have the option to be alerted about other events that could impact you and your family, such as wildland fires, flooding, and utility emergencies. This app also allows you to listen in on live dispatch radio traffic for most PulsePoint-connected communities by tapping on the speaker icon.
