Rockland County TRIAD is presently conducting a drive to collect
cellular phones that have been deactivated and are no longer in
service. Our partners in this program are the National
Sheriffs’ Association and the 911 Cell Phone Bank.
TRIAD will collect any cell phones no longer in use and send them to
the 911 Cell Phone Bank. They will restore the phones to their
original condition, removing any personal data that may be remaining
in the phone’s internal memory and insure the phone is operable.
Once these phones are
reconditioned, they will be returned to Rockland County TRIAD and we
will distribute them, based on need, to any senior citizen or
special needs crime victim in Rockland County who cannot afford to
have or maintain a cell phone account.
These reconditioned phones will only be capable of making 911
emergency calls
Please support our program and donate any cellular phones they may
possess that are no longer activated. These phones may someday
save a life of a Rockland resident. Once you have collected
any phones, contact Rockland County TRIAD at (845) 638-5582 and we
will arrange for one of our TRIAD volunteers to pick them up.
Also, please be aware that Rockland TRIAD has speakers available to
give free presentations on crime issues that will hopefully
establish an awareness and reduce the criminal victimization of our
senior population. Please call us at (845) 638-5582 to set up
an appointment for us to speak to your group.
ROCKLAND COUNTY TRIAD VEHICLE MEDICAL ALERT PROGRAM
Rockland County TRIAD
has developed a Medical Alert
Program, free of charge
for our senior population, that we hope will expedite the safe and
rapid delivery of emergency medical services, should you have the
misfortune of being seriously injured in an auto accident or become
ill while in your motor vehicle.
The packet, a white
envelope (with “MEDICAL ALERT DATA”
printed on the outside in red), contains two red and white peel-off
stickers for your vehicle and a booklet with spaces allocated to
allow you to enter any or all of the following information:

Sample of the peel-off sticker
The peel-off stickers are to be applied to your front and rear bumper on either side of the license plate, but not on the license plate itself.
When the first
responder arrives at the scene, the sticker on the bumper will
signify to that responder that there is a white envelope containing
your medical information in the glove box.
If it’s necessary for you to be transported to a hospital,
the responder will provide the emergency staff with the information
contained in your booklet.
Additional alert
booklets will be available for your spouse, relative, or other
persons who routinely are passengers in your vehicle.
If you own or operate more
than one vehicle, additional kits will be provided.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THIS PROGRAM WILL ONLY ASSIST YOU WHEN THE
EMERGENCY OCCURS WITHIN ROCKLAND COUNTY.
