Division of Emergency Communications
Sussex County Emergency Communications (911) provides rapid, reliable, and professional emergency response services to residents and visitors throughout the county.
Our mission is to serve as the critical link between the public and emergency responders, ensuring the efficient dispatch of fire, medical, and law enforcement personnel.
We are committed to public safety, operational excellence, and supporting our community 24/7 with integrity, compassion, and accuracy.
PulsePoint Respond®, a new high-tech tool designed to alert smartphone owners of cardiac arrest calls near their location, allowing them to respond and administer CPR immediately until first responders arrive. GPS-enabled cell phones can be alerted, based on their location, to a CPR medical call and the closest automated external defibrillator (AED) in that area.
Sussex County is proud to offer Smart911, an innovative service that lets you create a personal safety profile for emergency responders to access when you call 9‑1‑1. This service is available now for all residents, helping ensure that first responders have important information to assist you quickly and effectively in an emergency.
