The City of North Battleford is now working with Everbridge, a worldwide leader in unified critical communications, to keep residents, staff and emergency personnel safe and informed with quick and reliable emergency notifications and public service announcements.
The City of North Battleford will begin using North Battleford Rapid Alert to communicate with citizens and businesses during emergencies and other critical events. Residents are encouraged to register immediately to receive these alerts at https://member.everbridge.net/index/453003085612479#/signup
The City of North Battleford will use the North Battleford Rapid Alert emergency notification system to alert residents about a variety of events, ranging from severe weather, fires, floods and other emergencies. Messages will be sent to residents on their preferred contact paths — cellphone, short message service, home phone, email, fax, pager and more – to ensure real-time access to potentially lifesaving information. Residents listed in the City of North Battleford 911 database will be automatically subscribed to alerts by phone, but North Battleford Rapid Alert allows citizens to self-register, provide additional contact information or opt out.
“We have a commitment to ensure public safety, community awareness and emergency response. To uphold this, when critical information and public service announcements are available, we need to reach our residents as quickly and reliably as possible,” said Albert Headrick, director of Protective Services and fire chief.
“The Everbridge emergency notification system allows the City of North Battleford to disseminate this information across all types of devices, ensuring residents have access to real-time public information when they need it the most.”
“A resilient, comprehensive critical communications system is an essential tool for City of North Battleford that needs to notify thousands of residents and businesses rapidly and efficiently,” said Jaime Ellertson, CEO of Everbridge.
“Everbridge is proud to have been selected by City of North Battleford as a critical component of its public safety and emergency response program.”
