Hawthorne currently utilizes the enhanced 911 emergency dialing system for the entire Borough.
In the event of an emergency, simply pickup any phone in your home or a safe location and dial 911. When the dispatcher answers, be as specific as possible. This will help the dispatcher determine which emergency services need to respond and provide the best services possible.
Be ready to give the following information:
- Your name
- Your phone number
- The address of the emergency situation
- Nature of the emergency
REMEMBER
911 is designed for emergency calls, use discretion when using this number!
