PERSONAL PROTECTION IN THE HOME

Do you believe that when you dial 911 - the response is immediate?

Like it - or not: YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN TO SURVIVE UNTIL HELP CAN GET TO YOU.... in 5, 10, 30 minutes or more.

Response time actually depends on what else is going on in your city/community & the priority assigned to your call.

If you think this statement is wrong ask your local Police officer, fireman, or EMT/Paramedic (they may not like the directness of the question, but they'll tell you it's true.)

This course teaches the skills necessary to insure your safety and the safety of your loved ones ... in & around your home.
